Fragrance Profile:
A unisex floral-woody fragrance with gourmand undertones. Named Emanuele - suggesting Italian elegance and sophistication. Complex, layered, and surprisingly balanced despite the rich floral opening.
Emanuele opens with an unusually rich floral burst. Multiple roses (Turkish and Bulgarian) create a deep, velvety rose chord. Tuberose adds its signature creamy, indolic richness. Narcissus brings a green, slightly hay-like warmth. Peony contributes a soft, airy floral touch. Polygonum (a rare note) adds an herbal, slightly spicy nuance. Nutmeg provides initial warmth. Bergamot brightens the composition just enough to prevent it from becoming too heavy.
The heart simplifies the composition. Vanilla adds sweetness and creaminess. Petalia (a synthetic note mimicking petal softness) blends with Lily-of-the-Valley to create a fresh, green, slightly soapy contrast to the heavy floral opening.
The base is unexpectedly dry and woody. Cashmeran provides soft, velvety warmth. Incense adds a smoky, spiritual depth. Haitian vetiver brings earthy, grassy freshness. Almond contributes a subtle nutty, marzipan-like sweetness. Papyrus adds a dry, papery, slightly smoky texture.
