About
Quando rapita in estasi by Filippo Sorcinelli is a Chypre Fruity fragrance for women and men. Quando rapita in estasi was launched in 2019. Top notes are Incense, Cedar and Lily-of-the-Valley; middle notes are Cloves and Peach; base notes are Incense, Balsam Fir, Labdanum, Vetiver, Patchouli, Vanilla and Tonka Bean. Quando rapita in estasi is an extait de parfum, dedicated to an “aria” taken from the famous scene of the madness of “Lucia di Lammermoor”, an opera made famous by the interpretation of Maria Callas."The madness of opium, tonka bean, balsamic fir is the basis of this olfactory sculpture. And in the face of that everyone becomes impotent and feels a dull pain, a sharp pain, almost a melancholy from the peach heart that warms up in solitude. Madness is an almost perfect world made up of lesions that inevitably leave scars from the fragrant furrows of lily of the valley. It is a moment in which you are on stage but thinking of being closed in a dark building waiting to be warmed by you and your life." - a note from the brand.
