Review by calchic

Cerruti 1881 is designed to represent an olfactory rendering of crisp white linen – a bit starchy and sharp at first, easing into something cottony, clean and cooling. I guess I mostly get that from the fragrance, though the inclusions of chamomile, blonde woods and rosewood give it a slightly plushier quality as well, a touch of pure chenille to wear with your linen. (Nothing like mixing seasonal textiles, right?) It’s interesting how the geranium, which truly is a sharp note, pops up in the middle; compositionally, that comes through in the wearing and gives the fragrance a more tenacious staying power than it would ordinarily seem to possess. (If you’ve ever crushed geranium petals in your fingers, then you know the tenaciousness of that flower in its natural form.) The drydown is indeed clean and nearly comforting; no sweetness here, but there’s a soothing second-skin quality that flows very easily and with a sophisticated subtlety.
