The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2022, Amygdala by Mendittorosa is a composition that balances the warmth of cinnamon and coffee against the fresh green and white floral notes. Luca Maffei crafted this unisex scent to be both complex and inviting, with a woody base that grounds its sweet and spicy elements. The fragrance opens with a burst of freshness from green and yellow florals before settling into a cozy embrace of warm spices and rich coffee.

How to wear it

Apply this fragrance close to your skin for a warm and inviting presence. The woody base takes about an hour to fully bloom, so give it time to develop its rich character. It's best suited for evening wear when the warmth of spices and coffee can be appreciated.
