Trussardi Primo is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2024, created by Violaine Collas. Primo opens with Maple Syrup, Mineral, and Grapefruit, settles into a heart of Pimiento, Geranium, and Tonka Bean, and dries down to a base of Cedar, Sandalwood, and Patchouli. Trussardi's Primo carries a Favourite verdict, a woody-led wear.

Primo is a divisive scent experience, with some hailing it as a unique, high-end offering and others dismissing it as a generic, sugar-laden trend-follower. Its bold maple syrup opening is either a delightful surprise or a cloying misstep - you'll either love this or hate it.

About

Primo opens with a distinct, sweet hit of maple syrup, cut through by a sharp grapefruit and an intriguing mineral edge suggesting volcanic stone. As it settles, a warm, spicy core of pimiento and geranium emerges, softened by the creamy sweetness of tonka. The dry down is a woody embrace of sandalwood, patchouli, and cedar, retaining a hint of that spicy warmth.
