Description
Leonis I, named after a distant star that rises in the constellation of Leo.
This creation embodies an elegant journey of discovery of frankincense and myrrh, considered more important than gold, combined with the royal Oudh.
The fragrance opens with energetic, fresh top notes, a lively symphony of citrus emerges thanks to Brazilian orange which blends with the exotic notes of Sicilian saffron and the warmth of Davana, spiced up by the spicy counterpoint of black pepper.
This balance of fresh, energising notes moves into the very deep, complex heart of the fragrance, where Grenada nutmeg warmly envelops Texas cedar. The regal vigour of Jordan Myrrh underlines the mystical power of Oman Frankincense and Indian Cypriol, and a deep floral touch is provided by Indian Jasmine, enveloped in the charm of Cambodian Oudh.
The whole creation is built around a base of Australian sandalwood, which blends persuasively with magical ambergris, both enveloped in the extreme sweetness of Madagascar vanilla and the warmth of benzoin.
Paolo Terenzi
The Perfumer's word
"This creation embodies an ancient alchemy centred on three precious elements that have marked the entire history of mankind on the path of incense, from the Roman Empire to the present day. A stylish journey to discover precious Frankincense and Myrrh, considered more important than gold, combined with regal Oudh."
