Legends abound of the remarkable skill of Italian violin virtuoso Niccolò Paganini, the greatest violinist of his time. He was so singularly talented that the story goes that he was playing a new composition at a nobleman's villa one evening, a piece commissioned by the nobleman to draw a pretty woman's affections. Paganini played beautifully, surrounded by admiring listeners, until one of the strings on the instrument snapped. Undaunted, Paganini continued to play without missing a note, and a second string snapped. He continued without interruption, to the amazement of everyone around him. Surely he could not continue? But then a third string snapped, and still Paganini continued to play, completing his performance on only the one remaining string on the violin. Awestruck, the listeners broke into thunderous applause, and the legend of Niccolò Paganini grew.

But in his later years, when asked by a biographer about the story, Paganini revealed the truth: the piece had been specifically written to be played on successively fewer strings, and it was Paganini himself who broke each one as he played, dazzling his audience in the process.

For Paganini's Violin, we have composed a fragrance built on multiple variations on a single note, all playing together into one unified, singular whole. The smell of clean skin after a hot shower, interlaced with fruity undercurrents and tea, Paganini's Violin is one of our most unusual experiments, and decidedly an in-house favorite. We know you'll love it too.

Smells like rubbing alcohol and then disappears

Smells of rubbing alcohol and then a faint sweet rubber smell. Then it's gone.

This is a wonderfully subtle scent. Masculine leaning skin scent. It lasts on me around 6 hours. My wife is quite a fan. Now I have to find the soap and splash.

Shocked!

After reading the description of this, I bit the bullet and bought it. What a great decision! This scent is spectacular! My wife took one sniff of it on me and said "Wow, you smell yummy!' This was all the praise I needed to make this my signature scent from here on out.
