The story behind the bottle.
Rosso Pompei by Tiziana Terenzi is a captivating Oriental Floral fragrance for women, created by the duo of Paolo and Tiziana Terenzi. The composition opens with a bright burst of grapefruit and Amalfi lemon, followed by the lush sweetness of grapes and magnolia. These notes give way to a heart of jasmine, tuberose, and lily-of-the-valley, creating a floral bouquet that is both rich and delicate. The base notes of ambergris, cedar, patchouli, and sandalwood bring warmth and depth, grounding the fragrance in an earthy embrace.
Rosso Pompei's bright top notes are fleeting, so apply it in layers for the best effect. The ambergris and woody base take about an hour to fully bloom, making this fragrance ideal for daytime wear when you want something that evolves as the day progresses.
