Moschino Forever
by Moschino
Moschino Forever presents a crisp, aromatic citrus opening with kumquat and bergamot, enriched by a subtle spice from star anise and pepper. The heart reveals a softly sweet, powdery tonka bean with a clean, slightly soapy character, fading into a smooth, musky woody base of sandalwood and vetiver. It evokes a modern evolution of vintage Italian fougère scents—gentle, well-blended, and reminiscent of classic 90s masculine fragrances like Chanel Allure and Egoiste Platinum. The scent is refined and carryable, suitable for daywear, casual outings, and office environments. While the projection and longevity are moderate—some note it fades quickly after an hour—the performance is dependable enough for its price point, with many citing 5 to 8 hours on the skin. The fragrance stands out for balancing freshness, warmth, and light sweetness without being overly sweet or aggressive.
