by Roberto Cavalli
Roberto Cavalli Essenza is a rich, balsamic gourmand with a distinctive opening of bitter almond, followed by a creamy orange blossom heart and a warm, vanilla-sweet drydown. It achieves a delicate balance between sweetness and depth, presenting itself as an elegant, voluptuous scent with a warm, enveloping quality. The fragrance feels deeply concentrated, carrying a thick, syrupy quality that lingers with moderate longevity and moderate sillage, making it particularly suitable for evening wear in cooler seasons. It delivers a sensuous, almost cashmere-like texture, where floral and nutty notes harmonize without becoming cloying or sticky. While it shares aromatic echoes with Elie Saab L'Éau Couture or Roberto Cavalli EDP, it stands apart with a deeper, more concentrated profile that leans into a balsamic, slightly incensey warmth rather than a clean or airy feel. The result is a perfume that drinks in attention without shouting, offering a quiet, glamorously luxurious presence.
