A Signature Fragrance
Tuscan Iris
Tuscan Iris is not just an iris; it's a specific iteration grown in Tuscany, where its roots are steeped in the region’s rich volcanic loam. Its scent is both floral and earthy, with a subtle sweetness that hints at violets and a powdery finish that resonates like dry soil after rain.
Coriander
Derived from the seeds of the cilantro plant, coriander carries a complex profile that ranges from fresh and citrusy to warm and woody. Its scent is reminiscent of freshly cut grass with hints of lemon and pepper, making it a dynamic ingredient in perfume compositions.
White Musk
White Musk, an ethereal and clean aroma, is often likened to the essence of fresh laundry or soft cotton. This synthetic note was developed to offer a more refined and less animalic alternative to traditional musks. Its character is pure and light, designed to evoke a sense of cleanliness and purity.
