The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Velorum by Tiziana Terenzi was launched in 2017 and crafted by Paolo Terenzi. This fragrance is a vibrant blend of sweet, fruity, and warm spicy notes that blend seamlessly into an enveloping base of vanilla and powdery warmth. The composition opens with mandarin orange and rose, giving way to the complexity of ginger, saffron, and cardamom. These aromatic spices create a dynamic tension against the lush tropical fruits like passionfruit and almond, while tea and nutmeg add depth and richness. As Velorum settles into its base notes of white chocolate, vanilla, musk, amber, sandalwood, tonka bean, and guaiac wood, it transforms into an inviting warmth that lingers on the skin.

How to wear it

Velorum’s top notes are bright but fleeting, so apply liberally to ensure they catch. The base notes develop slowly over time, making it ideal for layering or reapplying midday as the warmth of vanilla and woods takes center stage.
