Buy this product and you will want to travel to Parma to eat cornetti con mandorla! It is just such a unique and sweet scent!

My first impression of this scent was sugared almonds with a sweet vanilla base plus a light orange edge. The root beer scent is there initially, but I don't find it too overpowering and eventually...

I love this! I am surprised by the negative reviews on this one! Although i can see how some say this is a root-beery sniff, I still love it. I dont smell the harsh almond scent (aka Macaroons)...

My frag twin Maximina introduced this to me, and boy am I glad she did! It's a rootbeer float on me, with a faint hint of almond. Delicious! Perfect for summer. Good sillage and lasting power...

I got a sample for this from drinbanana so props go to her. This REALLY took me by surprise. At first when I took a whiff I had a Scooby Doo look on my face trying to figure out if I liked it or...

Absolutely delicious, pure rootbeer! It is quite like Hypnotic Poison at first but definitely softer. And it dries to the most delicious almond vanilla I have sniffed in AGES. The dry down is...

It smells like root beer on me, literally. After the 20 minute drydown I still smelled like a vat of root beer. After 5 hours my wrist now smells warm, sweet and slightly almondy but where was that...

Mandorlo di Sicilia smells like a shot of rootbeer dropped in a mug of cream soda -- initially. After 15 minutes its true character comes forth. This is a dry, soft, sweet yet androgynous vanilla...

This is by far the best almond scent I have come accross. It is so rich and sweet. I especially love this in the bath oil which I use as a perfume oil!

Nice on initial application, but the dry down is heavy, a little masculine, and contains too much vanilla and almond for me. A no go for me-- too heavy and sweet. A little like pipe tobacco in a...

Tested the lotion version of this today. Very root beer to me, but I can't...seem...to...stop...smelling my hand! My reservations of buying this include the price and my tendency to be fickle and...

A fresh, yet comforting, lovely almond, vanilla & fresh orange scent. It's warm and pretty, but not outstanding. Not a must-have for me.

One of the best almond scents I have smelled yet! I don't really think "almond" when I smell it, I think "cream soda". I love Harmonie Creole, which is truly a root beer scent. Mandorlo is not. It...

One of the most interesting almond fragrances I've ever smelled. Mandorlo di Sicilia is almond with a herbaceous, minty cloud around it, my favorite of the Blu Mediterraneo line. Simple without...

What a GORGEOUS scent. It is sweet, very sweet indeed, but not sickly so. I smell (possibly burnt) brown sugar, or sugared almonds layered on top of a wonderful base of vanilla. I don't smell...

I didn't expect to like this, but I kind of do. I thought it would be very citrusy and creamsicle-like, but it definitely has that something extra. This reminds me of a vanilla gellato with swirls...
