    Hello, I’m running out of this perfume and it’s a nightmare trying to find it in Argentina, almost impossible. Does anyone know of a fragrance that smells very similar?

    I received a tester bottle of Pontaccio 21, a rare and uncommon scent. At first, it smells like the vintage version of Aramis. I suppose my bottle is a forgotten one from a container drawer, perhaps sealed for 34 years. It’s strong, floral, with narcissus, jasmine, and neroli blended together, giving it class and distancing it from the conventional.

    I’m not sure if Pontaccio 21 has been discontinued, but I remember it as a very masculine and beautiful perfume, crafted with classic patterns yet resulting in something novel. The combination of notes is perfect: woods, citrus, florals, and other contrasts achieve an agreeable, pleasant, and sensual result. For me, it was a good perfume that, without being pretentious, reached peaks of power.
