I’d dare say it opens with lavender, sage, bergamot and orange. Then comes clove, pine, carnation and some woods I can’t quite define. Finally, a touch of moss, musk and perhaps cedar. It’s like the sweet, shy daughter of a casual meeting between Agua Brava and El Paso. With better longevity and projection it would be a great fragrance. I love the overall scent, but its poor staying power hinders the full development of the pyramid. I was lucky enough to get a 50ml splash in good condition and I deserved it. I’ll enjoy it while it lasts, reapplying when needed.
I’d dare say that at the start it smells of lavender, sage, bergamot and orange. Then comes cloves, pine, carnation and some woods I can’t quite define. Finally, a touch of moss, musk and perhaps cedar or another wood. It’s like the sweet, shy daughter of a meeting between Agua Brava and El Paso. With more longevity and a bit more projection it would be a great fragrance. I like the overall scent a lot, but its poor duration prevents it from developing the pyramid well. I was lucky enough to get a 50ml splash in good condition and give myself the pleasure of trying it. I’ll enjoy it while it lasts, reapplying when necessary.
@Bofifa: In my case, applying it generously but without overdoing it, it lasted all afternoon and well into the evening. It was never great in terms of longevity, but it was always noticeable and noticeable to those around me without being overwhelming. I suppose it’s down to everyone’s skin… I find it woody, although a subtle nuance, but for me, and not being an expert, it’s clearly perceptible. It’s light years away from casting a shadow over Agua Brava. Now I’m looking for a rarity from Puig: ‘Uno’.
I had high hopes for Rasgo by Puig, which seemed a milestone to find the perfect sporty fern. It left a good memory among those from the 90s and is sought after for nostalgia. One has to face reality: Rasgo is a fern coupé with the typical combo of citrus, pine and woods, reminiscent of Cacharel Pour Homme or Massimo Dutti (the former, for me, was Agua Brava). The structure is textbook, with the novelty that the citrus leans towards an orange that lasts the entire life of the perfume, and the tone is very soft with barely perceptible woods. Back then it was aimed at young people, wanting to stand out from harsher scents. The problem is this softness. Rasgo never lifts off the skin and lasts only about two or three hours, which is very frustrating. Moreover, the mix of orange and pine doesn’t quite work, something that doesn’t matter much given the futility of its life. I’ll have to keep searching in the catacombs of the genre to find something that casts a shadow over Agua Brava. Rasgo, certainly, doesn’t manage it. The most notable thing is its beautiful bottle, far superior to the contents.
It’s for men, not unisex. I don’t know much about notes, I only catch a few. It has a classic citrus opening that quickly passes to a spiced woody base. It reminds me of Cacharel Pour Homme, nutmeg, cardamom…? It seems like a super-evolved version of Agua Brava, an attempt to update it for the 90s, launched then for the young public and to stick to the trends of the time. It was accessible, with good longevity and projection. You can still find it in neighbourhood chemists for a laugh. If you like 80s perfumes and popular Spanish fragrances, it’s worth having.
What nostalgia! When I was a child I loved it. It smells good, it’s masculine, fresh but with body. At first it smells of basil, lemon verbena or verbena, super refreshing and citrusy, and then it changes to a masculine floral, like carnation or rose with lavender, finishing with wet wood (this from memory, the ingredients could be different). As MiG69 says, it was a cologne style Cacharel Pour Homme or Halston 1-12. Masculine but far from the leathers and dry mosses of the past. Rasgo would be the cologne Sonny Crockett would wear in Miami Vice: very masculine without fear of looking modern.
