BAROCCO SAMPLE

INSPIRATION. 

An olfactory experience that embodies the excess, beauty and drama of Sicilian Baroque, bringing irreverent elegance to artistic perfumery. A trail that does not go unnoticed, a symphony for the senses that invites daring and distinction.

Born in the 17th century as a response to the stylistic rigidity of the time, Sicilian Baroque represented a creative rebellion, an explosion of opulence and dynamism that transformed architecture, sculpture, and the decorative arts, infusing energy and theatricality into every detail.

While the world conformed to a flat style devoid of élan, the Baroque soared with irreverence, exhibiting irregular forms, scenic exaggerations and an abundance of ornamentation that subverted the rules. Embodying the same nonconformist spirit, Extrait Barocco carries the rebellious and grandiose soul of those times.

Opulent and magnetic, Barocco rejects compromise and embraces olfactory drama.

With its powerful and vibrant trail, Barocco transforms the wearer into a living work of art that defies banality and leaves an indelible impression. Barocco is the olfactory expression of an era when art dared to be different, a fragrance that brings irreverence and spectacularity to the world of artistic perfumery, evoking the irresistible charm and exuberance of that mythical period.

THE FRAGRANCE. 

Barocco opens with an explosion of Sweet Orange and Bitter Almond that can evoke the bittersweet soul of Sicily. The heart of the fragrance reveals itself in a rich, enveloping embrace where Marzipan and Liquorose accents mingle, amplifying the Baroque harmony of the composition. Balsamic notes of Tonka Bean and Balsam of Peru emerge like a work of art, giving a luxurious and sumptuous, almost theatrical depth. The scent evolves with nuances of Candied Fruit, Caramelised Sugar and a hint of Coffee that ignite the imagination, blending with a touch of Almond that persists from start to finish.

At the base, an enveloping mix of Fruity Musks, Patchouli and Tolu Balsam, amplified by warm Amber Notes, gives the fragrance sophisticated complexity and extraordinary persistence.

The Musks, silent protagonists, give fluidity and three-dimensionality, unifying each nuance in a soft and voluptuous weave. Barocco is not just a perfume, but an olfactory experience that embodies the excess, beauty and drama of Sicilian Baroque, bringing irreverent elegance to artistic perfumery. A trail that does not go unnoticed, a symphony for the senses that invites you to dare and stand out.
