Composition of the fragrance:
This scent opens with a vibrant and aromatic burst where tangerine and bergamot bring a sparkling citrus brightness, while coriander, red thyme, and rosemary add a green, herbaceous sharpness. As it evolves, a refined floral blend unfolds: giaggiolo (iris essence concentrate) lends a soft, powdery elegance, enriched by the radiant sweetness of neroli, the calming touch of lavender, and the crisp bitterness of petitgrain. A hint of black pepper weaves in warmth and intrigue. Creamy sandalwood and cedarwood form a smooth, woody foundation. Incense and ambergris add a whisper of mystery and marine sensuality, while vanilla and white musk leave a gentle trail.
The story of the fragrance:

It evokes the powerful, smoky essence of incense once found in the ceremonial rituals of ecclesiastical chambers and military halls. Deeply enigmatic and commanding, it speaks to a bygone era of reverence and authority. Mysterious yet magnetic, it is a perfume of profound character.
