Fragrance notes
Character
Bergamot and lemon open with a bright, clean snap that feels like stepping out of a warm room into cool air. The citrus does not rush away, because the heart holds it through black tea and iris that give the opening a dry, powdered frame. Licorice and plum arrive next, dark and rounded, and the fruit never turns sugary thanks to the tea leaves running beneath them. Immortelle adds a warm, hay-like depth that keeps the middle from floating away, while black currant lends a gentle tartness. The base pulls everything downward with leather and vetiver, so the scent stays present through an evening without spreading far beyond the person wearing it.

It is not for anyone looking for a bright, easy daytime spray that announces itself across a space, because the scent keeps its distance and asks the people near you to lean in.
Arturetto Landi and Cristian Cavagna built a scent that moves from sharp citrus to a deep, leathery sweetness with quiet confidence. The plum and currant feel lush against the anisic lift of licorice, and the iris gives the whole structure a soft, powdery finish that lingers on fabric. It is the kind of perfume that feels at home in a dimly lit restaurant or a late walk under bare trees, when the air smells of damp earth and wood smoke. The vanilla and leather keep trading places, one moment smooth and comforting, the next dry and slightly sharp, while the vetiver hums underneath like a steady bass note that refuses to
