It opens with strong lemon and grapefruit, almost sweet like lemon caramel. Then the lemon blends with something fresh, damp, and earthy, like muddy soil; some say it smells of cannabis and they’re right, there is something of that. I also detect a smoky touch, but overall it’s a citrus-earth fragrance (damp), like a wild citrus.
The first thirty minutes are brutal: lemon, lime peel, and fresh herbs. Then that seminalis note emerges from below, turning milky and soapy, though less raw than the original. In my opinion, it adds no novelty if the perfume lasts 7-8 hours and only stands out in the first half-hour.
@davidmerinom12 David, either you haven’t smelled Risvelium or you haven’t smelled Seminalis. They are more alike than a squid to a chicken.
I tried it today and it’s a wonder. It doesn’t just smell citrus; on the skin, it becomes something animal. It will definitely be my next purchase, highly recommended, bravo!
Once again, the pleasure of commenting on Gualtieri. Thanks Amanece: sun, humidity, and heat. Imagine looking out the balcony of your room; the scent of freshly squeezed grapefruit, passion fruit, and pineapple reaches you. Then that freshness of garden hedges recently watered and fertilised mixes with the juice. At the same time, you feel gusts of breeze with smells of leaf litter and incinerated fruit peels over the damp mulch from watering two streets away. That is Risvelium. Longevity, projection, and trail in the Gualtieri style… nuclear. No compliments, reactions yes, and everywhere. Once again, he has done it. The nose and genius of Alessandro.
Smells of cut grass, period. It’s a strong scent, though not as much as others from the house. In the dry-down it becomes lighter and more pleasant. It’s a strange scent; I wouldn’t say it smells bad, it smells odd; I don’t see it for getting compliments but yes for attracting attention. Longevity seems good, though I haven’t tested it properly yet, and I can’t comment on the trail and projection.
Smells exactly like freshly cut grass. A strong scent, though not as intense as other fragrances from the house. Once it dries down, it becomes lighter and more pleasant. It’s an odd smell; I wouldn’t say it smells bad, just strange. I don’t see it as a compliment-getter, but rather as a way to attract attention. Longevity seems good, although I haven’t tested it thoroughly yet, so I can’t comment on the trail and projection.
Risvelium is versatile and gathers nuances from other fragrances from the house, but with its own personality. It has a Bergamask-type citrus note with a tropical plus, musk and amber à la Brutus, a smoky touch in the dry-down à la Terroni, and something green à la Viride, perhaps with a hint of algae Megamare, without falling into the aquatic. It’s a tropical note on the opening, like pulp, which moves to citrus on the skin and turns into green and dark tones, resembling a Carolina Herrera 212. If you haven’t tried Orto Parisi, start here; it’s not complicated nor challenging. Don’t expect a typical musky citrus; Gualtieri plays the unexpected. It’s a tropical citrus that turns into green jungle without losing acidity. Imagine moving from a tropical market to exploring the surrounding jungle. I wouldn’t recommend it if you don’t like subtle green notes. Don’t expect a fruity type like Xerjoff, Creed, or Lorenzo Pazzaglia. For those seeking greenery, it’s a treat. Mature profile, unisex but leaning masculine. Versatile for all seasons except cold winter or excessive heat, and for all occasions controlling applications (not for intense sport). I wore it to work and it was liked. Performance and projection are perfect: lasts 9 hours on skin with two applications. Projects well for the first hour at over a metre and then moves closer to the skin, but remains pleasant. As always, test on skin before buying niche; your skin is the best judge.
Risvelium is versatile and brings together house notes with its own personality. It opens with a Bergamot citrus note with a tropical twist, followed by musk and amber reminiscent of Brutus, a smoky touch like Terroni, and a green note similar to Viride with a hint of Megamare’s algae, without becoming aquatic. It features a tropical pulp note that settles on the skin as citrus before turning into deep greens, akin to a first 212 by Carolina Herrera. If you haven’t tried Orto Parisi, start here; it’s not as challenging. Don’t expect a typical citrus-musky scent, as Gualtieri plays with the unexpected. It’s a tropical citrus that evolves into jungle green without losing its acidity. Imagine moving from a tropical market to the surrounding jungle. I wouldn’t recommend it if you dislike understated greens. Don’t even dream of a fruity style like Xerjoff or Creed. For those seeking verdancy, it’s a delight. A mature profile, unisex but leaning masculine. Versatile all year round except in harsh winter cold or excessive heat, and suitable for occasions with controlled application (not for sports). I wore it to work and it was well-received. Performance and projection are perfect. It lasts nine hours with two sprays. Projects well for the first hour beyond a metre, then becomes skin-scented but remains noticeable. As always, don’t base your purchase solely on ratings; test niche fragrances on your skin before buying. Your skin is the best judge.
Starts with an unexpected citrus explosion of pineapple and tangerine, but soon darkens until it becomes too animalistic for my taste, as if the initial fruit rots and transforms into bergamot.
Grapefruit all over the face, that’s Risvelium. But it’s not just that; it quickly becomes denser. A blend of all its siblings to finish with the smoky touch of Terroni. Nuclear power and sillage, though not quite at Megamare’s level. I’d say it’s better for spring and cold autumns, as in summer it can be overwhelming given its citrus-musked, ambered, earthy, and smoky profile. I don’t see it as very versatile. The grapefruit holds up throughout the perfume’s life like a champion. Another masterpiece from the niche’s enfant terrible who always leaves us baffled.
Completely let down by the hype, which might be its only redeeming feature. To me, it’s a grapefruit and camphor opening that gives way to insignificant shifts over its incredibly long lifespan. At least I tested it in time.
Gualtieri sitting in his old chair, chewing on a pencil with a cigarette in hand. Suddenly, he looks at the cleaning lady—the only one left in his workshop at night—breaks the silence and asks: ‘What was the name of that famous perfume that sold so much?’ He takes a drag, exhales the smoke, and replies: ‘Aventus, was it?’
Without disrespecting, I’ll leave my personal opinion. Orto Parisi confuses the transgressive with the grotesque. His fragrances seem like collages of synthetic molecules that impose sensations through suggestion rather than real pleasure. Risvelium smells like a failed attempt to synthetically recreate freshly cut grass with damp earth, bitter and rough, mixed with herbs and all wrapped in a laboratory smell. That ‘originality’ is a pose; there is a disconnect between the artistic intention and the enjoyment. Furthermore, that extreme longevity that others admire is torture for me: an abrasive, vulgar, and dirty trail that invades everything. Orto Parisi seems like an exercise in olfactory narcissism. It’s like wearing a Bluetooth speaker playing trap music on the tube; people could use headphones, but they prefer everyone to hear what they want, even if you don’t like it. Every nose is a different world, but try before you decide.
A bitter-sweet experience. At first, I hated the scent, smelling only of freshly cut grass and couldn’t see myself wearing it. I put it away thinking of selling it, but when I smelled it again, I was surprised: finally, I noticed the pineapple, and the scent was more pleasant, though that grassy base remained. Now it’s more wearable and I’m not selling it. It’s extremely citrusy and although it’s unisex, I find it leans more masculine. Perhaps it won’t garner many compliments, but it certainly turns heads. A perfume for the brave, for those who don’t mind the rest of the world’s opinion.
To be brutally honest without intending offence, Orto Parisi seems to confuse transgression with the grotesque. Rather than art, their fragrances feel like a collage of synthetic molecules designed to impose sensations that only a few accept through suggestion. Risvelium smells like a failed attempt to synthetically recreate freshly cut grass with damp earth, bitter and coarse, mixed with oregano, thyme and tomatoes, all wrapped in that chemical factory smell they always seem to have. That celebrated originality feels more like pose than substance; I sense a total disconnect between artistic intent and the actual pleasure of wearing it. What’s worse, that admired longevity becomes a persistent torture: an abrasive, vulgar and dirty trail that contaminates everything in its path and invades your personal space. Ultimately, Orto Parisi feels like an exercise in olfactory narcissism. As I mentioned in another review, it’s like having a Bluetooth speaker playing trap music on the tube: people could wear headphones, but they don’t because they want you to listen to what they’re listening to, even if you don’t like it. Something similar happens with many fragrances of this type. But as always, every nose is a world and everyone lives their experience their own way, so better to try it and decide for yourself 😉
Gualtieri perfumes that generate massive hype in the niche world. The mystery of hidden notes and their exaggerated campaigns, combined with the eccentricity of the creator, only fuel doubt: is he a genius with abusive dosages or just very lucky? After his latest launches, I believe we are being sold smoke rather than quality. Exotic concepts that end up being pretentious, simple, and even vulgar fragrances. No real evolution; they always use the same bases with minimal changes to the top notes and a rapid dry-down. This smells like leather like Nudiflorum, but with an excessive use of Iso Butyl Quinoline that makes it hard, piercing, and annoying. A touch of synthetic bergamot and blackcurrant gives a brief, fruity citrus opening, without using natural citrus. It’s like taking the base of Nudiflorum, removing the jasmine, and adding citrus and fruits. Gualtieri’s creativity has become vaguer lately, always delivering the same thing. If you are looking for something introspective or supernatural, you will find a rough and routine perfume. Nothing special. Best wishes.
Pungent citrus burst, blending grapefruit and bergamot. Then blackcurrant and a ‘dirty’ musk wrap everything up at the end. Longevity worthy of Gualtieri: immense. High projection. PD: Creed Aventus (in its prime).
The citrus lasts 0.0000001 seconds. Afterwards it becomes dark and very heavy. I do not recommend it; yes, it lasts on the skin for a lifetime and a bit more. Do not buy it blindly.
Very subjective. It can seem simple or complex. You can intellectualise it or not. Risvelium has a lot of personality, it is rough and casual. Citrusy tropical opening, spectacular and prolonged; afterwards, the herbal part reminds of dry oakwood, of wheat fields before the harvest: it literally smells of vegetation beaten by the sun. I perceive a fizzy bitterness that suggests tonic, not gin and tonic, tonic. Very pleasant musky dry-down. After using it for about fifteen days (the level remains the same), I think a reasonable use is 3 sprays. It has a strident first phase, but when it dries it softens. If I compare it with other perfumes I use quite a bit, like Dior Eau Sauvage Parfum or Boss Triumph Elixir, I think they are better balanced; I say this because Risvelium has about 4 very strong hours, but after the fifth it drops quite a bit (I have asked several times). It performs quite well, but it does not last effectively for 24 hours nor is it worth it with a single spray. The ‘wild vegetation’ story is original and appropriate; I like that it is different. And I like that it is polarising; I appreciate noticing some negativity at times. I appreciate having something like this, something that needs many uses to understand it.
A unique scent; for me it’s like a ‘passion fruit foot’. Unfortunately, this perfume does not perform well on my skin.
The raw instinct of Gualtieri. Risvelium is not a perfume, it is a manifesto. A contained animal roar in 50 ml. It is, probably, one of the crudest and most visceral compositions within the already transgressive catalogue of Orto Parisi. If someone still expected sweetness, classic beauty, or balance in this house, here Gualtieri finishes breaking all the mirrors. This was not built to please. It was built to confront. The awakening as a physical act: ‘Risvelium’ is an adapted form of the Italian ‘risveglio’, made to sound more archaic, visceral, or primitive, as is usual in Orto Parisi. It is not classical Latin, but Risvelium sounds Latinised, which gives it a ritual, almost alchemical tone. Therefore, from its very name this perfume positions itself as a call to the senses. But not a gentle awakening, but a sudden, physical, almost violent one. Like opening your eyes after a nightmare. Like being born without anaesthesia. It is a ‘bodily awakening’. Opening: the raw blow. As soon as you apply it, you perceive an abrasive and sharp accord of bitter, earthy, organic, and metallic grapefruit. There are no flowers, no fruits, no citrus. There is skin. Body. Living matter. Something clearly animal is detected (although not faecal), a mix of clean sweat, hair, untreated leather, and remnants of wet green, as if someone had pulled up a bush with bare hands. The sensation is like smelling the back of someone who has just come out of a run through the forest. A mix of pheromones and earth. Heart: the vegetable, the mineral, the human. As the composition evolves, greener, bitter, and resinous notes appear, but never softening the general impression. If there is anything floral, it is dehydrated, withered, almost fossilised. The perfume remains dry, austere, with a musky and earthy base. The texture of the fragrance is rough, arid, and, yet, sensual. There is no sweetness or concessions to gourmand. One can intuit a certain inspiration from the world of hair, sweat, and wet skin, as happens in Stercus or Brutus, but Risvelium is less scatological, more physical. It feels like a self-portrait, like smelling your own chest after a fight session. Base: silent intensity, hot shadow. When it settles (and that can take hours) it leaves a warm, mineral trace of dry salt on the skin. Something similar to the smell of a stone that has been in the sun for a long time. At that height, Risvelium has integrated with you. You no longer perceive it as a perfume, but as part of the body. Performance: total identity. One of its most impactful points is the performance. This perfume does not just project; it invades. Three sprays can dominate the environment for 12 hours. The trail is not shrill, but firm and intense, like a constant breath. It is one of those perfumes that does not abandon skin or memory easily. When to use it? It is not for everyone. It is not for every moment. Risvelium is a perfume of reflection, of intimate territory. For lovers of perfumes that tell a dark, bodily, authentic story. It is more of an experience than a daily fragrance. It is not for the office. It is not to please. It is to be. And to wake up something that, probably, you had forgotten you had inside. Risvelium is the perfume that is not perfumed, but inhabited. It is the olfaction made flesh. A deeply human creation, uncomfortable, and, therefore, deeply necessary.
Alessandro Gualtieri’s fragrances are always a delicate matter: for some, they are masterpieces; for others, synthetic attacks and bad taste. The truth is probably somewhere in the middle. To be honest: I love Alessandro’s products, as Black Afgano was my gateway. So, although it may seem biased, I will try to be objective. The inspiration is a ayahuasca ritual in Peru, an experience close to death. Or, in other words: you vomit, defecate, and tremble. That explains the name, as ‘Risveglio’ means ‘awakening’. Once the ritual is complete, you feel ‘reborn’, ‘awake’, or ‘enlightened’. It provides a different perspective of the world: it is the bridge, the gateway from the physical world to the metaphysical. It sounds like Cuarto Milenio, but everyone can think what they want. But what does Risvelium smell like? The interesting thing is the emotion it conveys. It is inspired by spiritual rituals and transmits a strange vibe, as if you were at a ceremony. It is not sweet or easy to assimilate at first impact. It is intense, complex, and totally genderless. It is the kind of scent that forces you to stop and feel how it acts on your skin. If you have been bored by perfumes lately, this will wake your attention. Seriously: Risvelium is not just a fragrance, it is an awakening. Or at least you will enjoy trying to decipher it. Surprisingly citrusy immediately. Whoever, like me, expects an acidic, green, and herbaceous mix with artemisia, tea tree, neroli, camphor, or similar, will feel out of place. But first things first: the opening is citrusy; the grapefruit undoubtedly plays an important role, but thanks to the slight pepper, it develops more like a fizzy sensor on the skin. There is also something damp and earthy; I think the mix of fermented citrus and wet earth creates then this note of ‘beetroot’. There is also a slight vetiver smoke, similar to Encre Noire Edt, but less present, more subtle, and not as dry as Lalique. The base is, then, although more muted than usual, the typical of many Orto Parisi creations: the oud (artificial), or rather, dark, woody notes with a slightly faecal note and an animal note of ‘urine’ and ‘sweat’. But if you are thinking of a fragrance with an oud base with an animal touch, you are in the wrong place. The notes are barely perceptible, if they are, and the typical Orto Parisi DNA. So, what is Risvelium? A Bergamask 2.0? A Terre d’Hermès style with steroids and dirty hands? Yes and no. The parallels with other Orto Parisi are obvious, and Bergamask is also a citrusy and dirty fragrance, but: Bergamask is significantly more animal due to the musk, although less earthy. A slight comparison with Terre d’Hermès can give an idea, although the French perfume is much cleaner, more defined, and elegant. One became an architect, the other a hippie travelling the world with a backpack and guitar. In short, despite all the comparisons, Risvelium is a unique fragrance, even within the Orto Parisi universe. And surprisingly wearable, if you have a certain olfactory background and an open mind.
A unique scent; for me it’s like a ‘passion fruit foot’. Unfortunately, this perfume doesn’t perform as well on my skin.
I bought it due to the hype of the moment. The truth is, I like it, but in moderation. What stands out most, without a doubt, is its brutal longevity: it lasts hours without any problem. Personally, what I enjoy most is the dry-down, especially after about 2 or 3 hours. It is there where it really shines. In that final phase, it has an aura that reminds me quite a bit of Erba Pura, with that clean, fruity, and enveloping touch.
I love the opening; it’s a delicious ultra-concentrated grapefruit, but the dry-down is somewhat spicy, similar to Megamare.
Gualtieri has got us used to a certain olfactory profile, that’s a fact. Certainly this fragrance has the DNA of Gualtieri and the other Orto Parisi scents, but why should that be bad? I’ll start by saying I own Terroni, Megamare, Cuoium, and Bergamask, and the truth is that having this Risvelium doesn’t seem redundant in any case. Since this is the most piercing, bright, and ‘commercial’ citrus of the entire Orto Parisi line, in my perception it has cannabis through and through, rhubarb, and ambroxan. There will be many more things, but the most noticeable is that… And its tremendous longevity and projection, well over 12 hours and projecting about 4 without any problem. Sincerely, I think it’s one of the best launches.

It’s spectacular and the easiest to wear alongside Bergamask. It’s an ultra-concentrated grapefruit that doesn’t disappear; shortly after, it mutes a soft touch of pineapple, nothing like Aventus (they didn’t invent the smell of pineapple, and not all perfumes with this note are alike). It finishes a bit darker with touches between amber and musk, I can’t distinguish them well. Longevity and projection are brutal, as is everything Gualtieri does.
Doesn’t matter to me; it’s a proposal that adds nothing new. It’s easy to tell, and to be honest, it lacks much depth. It’s the typical Orto Parisi ambroxan overload. Starts with a full-on grapefruit, no brakes. I was frightened it would stay like that, but soon it sweetens with a noticeable pineapple. Then it’s a mix of ambroxan and sweetness, drying out with a smoky and musky touch. The finish is pleasant; I like how it smells. Now I’m not into these aromas; it would tire me out. It leaves a nice trail; I almost prefer it on someone else. It’s curious how OP used to dazzle me and now it’s harder. I don’t see a defined use; I see it as cheerful and playful for hot days. It lasts a long time and it’s noticeable. I liked trying it, but I wouldn’t buy it.
