Fragranxe Review
EDITORIAL“Borsari Lemongrass e Cassis Review”
Lemongrass e Cassis is a floral fruity fragrance with a clear daytime identity. The name points you in the right direction, but the scent looks broader than a simple lemongrass and blackcurrant pairing. On paper, it opens with cassis, bergamot, grapefruit and peach, which suggests a juicy citrus start with a little tartness and a soft fruit sheen rather than anything syrupy.
The heart is where the fragrance seems to find its personality. Lemongrass sits alongside magnolia, jasmine and peony, so the citrus freshness is not only in the top. It appears to continue through the middle with a greener, slightly aromatic edge. That should keep the floral side feeling brisk and clean instead of creamy or overly romantic. Peony and magnolia usually bring a light, petal-like texture, while jasmine can round things out without necessarily making the scent indolic or heavy.
As it dries down, musk, sandalwood and vanilla likely soften the sharper edges. That base does not look rich enough to turn the fragrance into something warm or gourmand. Instead, it probably adds comfort and a faint powdery smoothness underneath the fresher top and heart. This matters if you like citrus florals that do not disappear into pure soapiness. There seems to be at least some body here, even if the overall direction stays light and feminine.
The accord profile supports that impression. Citrus leads, followed by floral, fresh spicy and aromatic tones, with powdery and fruity nuances behind them. In wear, that combination usually reads as crisp first, airy through the middle, and gently musky later on. If you are expecting a lush cassis perfume or a vanilla-heavy floral, this may feel lighter and cleaner than that. If you want a polished citrus floral for daytime use, the structure makes more sense.
Performance is the hardest part to call with confidence. The available wear impressions are too mixed to make a strong promise. It is best approached as a scent that may land somewhere around light to moderate wear for many people, with projection that likely becomes more personal after the opening. That makes it a better fit for daytime routines, work settings and casual spring wear than for someone shopping specifically for dramatic trail or all-night staying power.
Who should sample it first? Anyone who enjoys fresh florals with a tart fruity opening and a soft musky finish. It looks especially suitable for wearers who like the idea of citrus and blackcurrant but want the result to stay feminine, tidy and easy to live with. The main caution is simple: if you prefer denser sweetness, obvious woodiness or stronger performance, this may feel too delicate.
