Maison Francis Kurkdjian has launched Cologne Forte Fragrance Collection. The collection has three fragrances that are three variations of Aqua fragrances from the house. The collection influences travel towards a destination filled with light, colors, and freshness. Cologne is basically a family of fresh, citrus-based fragrances distilled using extracts from citrus, floral, and woody ingredients. The common ingredient in these three new fragrances of Maison's olfactory wardrobe is the bergamot. It levels up the freshness in the scent. Keep reading to know my thoughts on Maison Francis Kurkdjian Aqua Vitae Cologne Forte.
The Cologne Forte collection illustrates the lightness and sensations one can feel at different moments of life that inspire emotions. Aqua Universalis, Aqua Celestia, and Aqua Celestia forte are my all-time favorite fragrances. And they have new variations in the newly launched collection. From the newest launches, I am currently enjoying the Aqua Vitae Cologne Forte. I have not tried the Aqua Vitae Edt, so I can not compare it with Aqua Vitae Cologne Forte.
Key Notes
- Top Notes – Italian Mandarin Orange, Italian (Calabrian) Bergamot
- Middle Notes – Floral Notes, Solar Notes
- Base Notes – Sandalwood, Musk
Maison Francis Kurkdjian Aqua Vitae Cologne Forte is a floral citrus fragrance. The first look at the bottle gives a sunny and bright vibe. The yellow bottle looks really pretty, almost like a bottle of sunshine. As from the color of the bottle and the family of the bottle, the citrus notes are from mandarin.
And thus, the result is a luminous citrusy and sunny floral scent. Apart from the solar notes, the fragrance is enriched by sensual musks in the base notes including the Indian sandalwood. Aqua Vitae Cologne Forte definitely feels like sunshine. There is a warmth, freshness, and juiciness in the scent. It marks all ticks for a beautiful summer scent. Overall, the fragrance is a warm, sunny, fresh, solar scent with a clean vibe.
Aqua Vitae Cologne Forte is light and I am reaching for it quite a lot since the summer started. I like the longevity of this fragrance on me, the sillage is moderate. It is a unisex scent but a little inclined towards the feminine side due to the floral part but otherwise depends if that note comes up on your skin.
