A closer look at Gritti 1968 EDP

Its style
The strongest accord is citrus (100%), followed by aromatic and lavender. You will probably like it if you enjoy citrus and aromatic smells and notes like lavender and ambergris. Less obvious notes include grapefruit, patchouli and musk. Perfume fans rate it 3.96 out of 5.
What 1968 costs
In Europe it costs about €233, depending on the bottle size and the shop. That puts it on the expensive side. It costs more than Gianni Versace Blue Jeans and Creed Travel Case but less than Roja Dove Roja Elysium Parfum and Creed Aventus Absolu.
Best season for 1968
It is at its best in spring. It is less suited to winter. From best to least suited, the seasons are spring, fall, summer and winter. Its fresh smell feels good on warm days.
How long it lasts
Expect about 3 to 6 hours on skin, which is about average for a perfume. As an Eau de Parfum, it has more perfume oil than an Eau de Toilette, which helps it last. Creed Travel Case and Creed Aventus Absolu last longer, if that matters to you. Base notes like ambergris and tonka bean are the part that stays longest on the skin.
Day or night?
This is more of a daytime scent that suits the office and everyday wear. Its citrus side keeps it clean and easy.
