Trussardi — My Scent
Essence
My Scent is a soft 2015 Trussardi floral that turns pear and lilac into something more tactile than fruity: a polished cloud of powder, clean musk, rose, and cashmeran. It is less a fresh-picked bouquet than the scent of face powder, skin cream, and freshly laundered knitwear.
Scent Profile
Pear gives the opening a brief juicy lift, but it is not the fragrance’s destination. The fruit quickly becomes part of a broader clean-floral effect as lilac, rose, and powder take over. The lilac is softened and rounded, closer to a creamy cosmetic floral than to a green branch in bloom. Heliotrope supplies a mild almondy, almost lotion-like softness. Cashmeran and white musk warm the composition without making it heavy, while rose adds a rosy haze rather than a distinct petal note. The effect is often more substantial than the pink bottle and floral note list imply. The drydown stays close to the original idea: lilac residue, soft powder, gentle musk, and clean cashmeran. There is little dramatic change, which is part of the appeal for someone looking for an easy, composed daily scent and part of the limitation for someone wanting contrast or sparkle.
Performance
Expect modest to moderate longevity and a polite aura. My Scent generally stays near the wearer, although its soapy-musky base can linger on fabric and knitwear. It is not built for a dramatic trail; a small reapplication is more useful than a heavier initial application if it needs to last through a long day.
Wearing Context
The powdery, clean-floral character works best in cool spring, autumn, and quiet daytime settings. It is especially comfortable for work, errands, lunches, and low-key social plans. Warm weather can make the cosmetic powder effect feel denser, while evenings that call for a stronger statement may leave it feeling too restrained.
Comparisons & DNA
Trussardi My Name is the most useful comparison within the house. Both have a clean, feminine, softly creamy manner, but My Scent is pearier, rosier, more lilac-led, and more powdery. My Name is the smoother, more lotion-like relative. The wider style is polished designer floral rather than a true duplicate of another perfume. My Scent sits between modern clean musk and a lightly retro face-powder floral, with its lilac-and-cashmeran texture doing more work than its pear top note.
Reception
Powdery-floral fans appreciate the polished lilac, pear, and clean-musky texture. Others find it overly soapy, familiar, or a little dense. Its modest performance and gently old-fashioned cosmetic quality make it a better choice for someone who specifically enjoys that comforting style than for a blind search for a vivid fruity floral.
Versions & Reformulation
My Scent is documented as an EDT in 30, 50, and 100 ml bottles. No major reformulation or separate version is established. It followed the same accessible, personal naming approach as Trussardi’s My Name and My Land releases.
Acquisition Notes
The documented bottle sizes are 30, 50, and 100 ml. Current purchase information is limited, and there is little reason to treat it as a collector bottle. The practical question is whether the wearer enjoys a soft lilac, clean-musk, and cosmetic-powder profile.
