Omnia Granato
This is the latest unisex perfume from the jewelry house Omnia. It is a carefully thought through and marketed perfume that attracts both the sexes in different ways. Ultimately it something of a triumph because it avoids many of the challenges that kill off mixed sex perfumes. It is pleasant to look at and smell. A good buy for everyone who cares about perfumes.
The Brand
Omnia is a jewelry house of Italian extraction that has had some success in the perfume industry. They have only started as early as 2009 but they already have about nine perfumes on the go which shows a determination and diligence towards the industry. I find their products innovative but not shocking. They are one of those brands that will quietly last a very long time. That is what you want in today’s competitive perfume industry.
The Fragrance
The perfume notes start off with hawthorn and jasmine. They then move on to lilac, rose and gardenia. The fresh theme is developed by geranium and orange. We have the obligatory spicy stuff such as nutmeg, cardamom, cinnamon and white thyme. This then settles into the more familiar anise, cedar, patchouli and sandalwood. The perfume is completed by vetiver, vanilla and white musk. It might appear that the flavors are just too many to bring out a perfume that is coherent. However I was surprised to note that the final product was quite exceptional in its ability to blend all these complex scents into a rather calm final product
The Packaging
The best description that I can come up with is beautiful. This is really a wonderful bottle that reminds me of pearls. The golden liquid within is almost like honey and the labeling is that of clean black or gold lines. The whole feeling is elegant without necessarily offending either the feminine or masculine aspects of its composition. This is packaging that is comfortable for both men and women.
General Customer Feedback
The customers really enjoyed the perfume and commented on its ability to satisfy both the male and female elements of the customer base. Quite surprisingly for a new perfume, I did not find negatively in the boards that I visited. They praised its versatility and the kinds of aromatic flavors that it brought with it. I think the makers are onto a winner here. If they can continue in this vein, I am sure they will be up there with the perfume greats.
