Launched in 2020, Hortus Sanitatis by Gucci is a woody spicy fragrance created by Alberto Morillas. This composition opens with fresh and green notes that evoke the crispness of a newly planted garden. The heart brings aromatic spiciness, while the base settles into earthy and leathery tones that create a sense of grounding and warmth. It's a scent that bridges the natural world with sophisticated elegance, much like Gucci’s legacy of blending fine craftsmanship with refined luxury.

Application Tips
Apply two sprays to ensure the complex layers develop fully on your skin. The green and aromatic top notes are fleeting but essential for setting the tone, so be sure they have a moment to shine before the earthy base takes over.
