The store’s selection is really good and comprehensive. Placing an order was very easy, and shipping was really fast. The fragrances were well packed and they were all...
The composition
The curve shows the order in which the notes come forward, not their strength.
On the skin
The top is bright and tropical: mango, pineapple and coconut, with bergamot adding a clean citrus edge and white rhum a faint cocktail touch. This is the pina colada side of the perfume, juicy rather than syrupy, and it is the part you notice first.
In the heart, coconut milk makes the fruit softer and creamier, while marine notes bring a light, salty-fresh air. White flowers add the airy floral bouquet the brand mentions, keeping the middle open and light instead of sticky.
Vetiver, musk, sandalwood and Indian amber close it. The brand describes the base as green notes and sandalwood, and that fits: vetiver adds a dry, grassy firmness, sandalwood a smooth warmth, with musk and amber blending the two softly.
Wearing it
Made for warm days: beach, holidays, rooftop evenings and any bright weather. The brand says it works on all 365 days of the year, and the vetiver and sandalwood base does give it enough body for cooler days. Two or three sprays are plenty for an extrait.
For people who like tropical fruit and coconut but want them to feel fresh rather than heavy. It suits easy-going wearers, summer travellers and anyone who wants a cheerful scent for the day. If you prefer dark, spicy or smoky perfumes, this one will feel too light-hearted.
The brand lists a Best New Fragrance award at the Perfume Awards 2024 in Madrid for Summer Hammer. It belongs to the Cocktail collection and shows the house's lighter side: playful, direct and built on one clear idea.
Questions
No. Coconut milk and mango add creaminess, but bergamot, marine notes and white flowers keep the fruit airy, and the base is vetiver and sandalwood rather than sugar.
Extrait de Parfum, the concentration the house uses across its range. It is made to sit close to the skin and last, so it needs fewer sprays than a lighter concentration would.
On warm skin such as the chest, neck or wrists, from a short distance. The base notes develop on the skin over time, so start with a light hand and add more only if you want to.
The house
Lorenzo Pazzaglia, also styled PAX by Lorenzo Pazzaglia, is an Italian artistic perfumery from the Marche region. Every perfume is an Extrait de Parfum, and the scents are vivid and playful: summer cocktails, sea air, rum and vanilla, cherry and chocolate.

The store’s selection is really good and comprehensive. Placing an order was very easy, and shipping was really fast. The fragrances were well packed and they were all excellent. I’m very satisfied. 👍💯👍
Very good quality profume, it last long and it has a good price for its incredible aroma and mixes of fruit and wood smell
A cozy, slightly sensual vanilla that feels like warm night air by the sea. Easy to love if you enjoy gourmand perfumes with a soft smoky edge.
This perfume is really well blended, I just removed a star because I personnaly don't like the top note (citronella)
Placing the order was very easy. Shipping was very fast. I am completely satisfied.
Good cologne, love the citrus and ginger scent making it a playful combo while the tea base makes it a bit more mature. Great for the gym
FragranceGems is again really quick with their releases. I hope this one smells better than Too Damn Good. Already rating a 5 star because of previous experiences!!
Already pre-order. As always, FragranceGems is the first with good releases. Looking forward to my bottle!
The cap of the bottle came with a small part of it broken off and the glass pieces were in the box
