The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2019, Sunsation by Tiziana Terenzi is a composition that captures the essence of an invigorating sunlit day. It opens with bright citrus notes like lemon and bergamot, which are immediately complemented by fresh spiciness from cardamom and pink pepper. As these top notes give way to a heart of jasmine, magnolia, and lily-of-the-valley, the fragrance becomes a harmonious blend of floral freshness and warmth. The base notes of patchouli, sandalwood, and palisander rosewood bring an earthy depth that grounds the entire composition.

How to wear it

Apply Sunsation to your pulse points and let it warm up on your skin for about five minutes before heading out. The citrus top notes will brighten within the first hour, while the floral and woody base notes gradually take center stage, making this a perfect choice for daytime wear.
