Z Zegna, from Ermenegildo Zegna was released in 2005. The perfumer behind this creation is Antoine Lie, Olivier Gillotin, and Pierre Negrin. It has the top notes of Bergamot and Rosemary, middle notes of Iris, Nutmeg, and Pepper, and base notes of Cashmere wood, Musk, Oakmoss, and Patchouli.
Well...Z is an interesting one for me. At first, my favourite Zegna fragrance was Intenso then Forte then this. However it just shows you that you need a while to let them settle down and live with for a bit before making any hasty judgements. This is now my favourite, they're all of the same ilk more classy citrus business in the top notes but it's the dry down with this that makes it. I think it must be the exotic fruits that make it stand out from the crowd. This is a superb fragrance and can be worn anytime.
Ah ha!!! No wonder I love it so much it's very similar to Tommy by Tommy Hilfiger. Subtly different and quite different in the dry down, I love both of them.
