Launched in 2010, Meo Fusciuni’s 1# nota di viaggio (rites de passage) by Giuseppe Imprezzabile is a chypre fragrance that captures the essence of transition and journey. The composition opens with fresh spicy notes of pepper and grapefruit, balanced by aromatic bergamot and palisander rosewood. As it evolves, warm spices and rich woods like patchouli and sandalwood emerge, grounded by earthy vetiver and incense. This fragrance encapsulates the complex layers of an odyssey, blending clarity with depth.

Application Tips
Apply this fragrance lightly — the top notes are bright but give way quickly to richer layers. The base notes take time to fully emerge, so it's best worn in situations where you can enjoy its gradual transformation throughout the day.
