Scintilla

The warmth of late afternoon in a sunlit Tuscan garden, where the scent of ripe fruit mingles with the earthy aroma of moss and undergrowth.

The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Scintilla, launched by Giardini Di Toscana in 2023 and crafted by perfumer Silvia Martinelli, is a composition that captures the essence of Italian gardens. The fragrance opens with bright, juicy notes like pineapple and apple, which are balanced by the rich earthiness of oak moss and patchouli. This interplay between fruity freshness and woody depth creates a dynamic scent that evolves throughout the day. Iso E Super adds an intriguing smoky undertone, while violet and jasmine offer a delicate floral sweetness.

How to wear it

Apply Scintilla to pulse points for maximum impact. The fruity top notes are vibrant but fleeting, so reapply if you want them to linger longer. For a more lasting impression, focus on the base notes by applying it closer to your skin where they can bloom over time.
