Nino Cerruti started his own fashion house in Paris in 1967. When I was a young man, Cerruti 1881 was one of the first eau de toilette that I started to wear. There are many ways by which our memories are created. It may be sound, or a scent or odour or it may be a muscle memory. All of the ways we create our memories are unique to the individual. You may think that all of the above is a strange way to start a review. Hopefully, I will be able to articulate this.
When it comes to the perfume market it is a multi billion pound business. Many of the fragrances come from the haute couture world of fashion. As such, perfume is labelled as a luxury item, hence some of the astronomical price ranges. If you are in the uber rich you can get a fashion house to create a perfume just for you.
Because there is big money to be made, there are now the nefarious people who manufacture counterfeits and have created "the grey market ". This "grey market " can be the most difficult to spot. You could be strolling through a market in a town or village. You may come across a stall selling your favourite scent at a ridiculously low price. Would you be tempted to buy it?
If I may ask for a little more indulgence from you. What does Eau de Toilette and Eau de Parfum actually mean? With my next bit, I am by no means trying to sound patronising in any way. With the two descriptions, Toilette and Parfum,there is a substantial difference between the Parfum essence used. As such, this probably is the price difference between both. Eau de Toilette has between 5% and 15% pure Parfume essence mixed with the aqua and other ingredients. This spray can then last up to 3 hours. Yes you may well have to use more. There is a caveat to this. As we are all unique and ofcourse depending what you are doing when you wear your Eau de Toilette, it can last longer.
What then is Eau de Parfume. To create this type of perfume, it will have 20% to 30% of pure Parfume essence. This can last up to 24 hours.
My final bit is for Cerruti 1881. It has a fragrance that is full of citrus and a hint of floral added to enhance the scent. Because I always try to provide an accurate review, I have had my Cerruti 1881 on for over 4 hours. It still provides the aroma of the scent as I remember it all those years ago.
