It opens with Italian blood orange, juicy and with the bitter edge of the peel, and the orange blossoms quickly soften the roughness. Passion fruit brings in a tropical sharpness that keeps it from a textbook citrus, and white musk closes by smoothing it out. Laboratorio Olfattivo releases the four notes together, as top notes, and that is how it behaves: you smell the whole thing from the first minute and it leaves nothing for later.
Arancia Rossa is a citrus fragrance from Laboratorio Olfattivo signed by Jean-Claude Ellena, and it belongs to Viaggio in Italia, the collection of five citrus scents the perfumer dedicated to the country alongside Mandarino, Limone, Bergamotto and Pompelmo. Ellena assigns the roles like this: bergamot is elegant, lemon energetic, mandarin cheerful, and orange sunny and ironic.
It calls for reapplying, like any cologne, and part of its charm is right there: you put it on and put it on again without it feeling heavy. It wears beautifully during the day. From the same collection we have Mandarino, which is the sweet and rounded version, and Bergamotto, which leans bitter and dry. And if you want Ellena in another register, in this same house there are Tuberosis, Jasminade and Rose Me Twice.
