Three exclusive essences that capture the soul of the brand.
Officina delle Essenze is thrilled to announce an important new chapter in the history of the Roman brand: the launch of the Extrait collection, debuting with three fragrances: Barocco, Shérdan, and Geisha.
Barocco
Inspired by the grandeur of Sicilian Baroque, this fragrance is an ode to opulence and theatricality. Barocco emerges as a rebellion against the rigidity of the time, embodying the same nonconformist spirit: a bold perfume that celebrates the joy of living without compromise. Its olfactory mood echoes the rebellious and spectacular spirit of that historical period, when art broke rules to embrace irregular forms and extravagant ornaments.
The notes of Sweet Orange and Bitter Almond evoke Sicily, with its sweetness and bitterness, while Marzipan and liqueur accents at the heart amplify the richness of the composition. In the base, Tonka Bean, Peru Balsam, and a touch of Fruity Musk add a sensual and persistent dimension, making Barocco a fragrance that doesn’t go unnoticed—a vibrant trail that transforms the wearer into a true work of living art.
Shérdan
Shérdan is a tribute to the millennia-old history of Sardinia and the legendary Shardana warriors, who sailed the Mediterranean, challenging the mightiest empires. The fragrance tells a story of strength, resilience, and freedom, evoking a wild and fascinating island where nature reigns supreme.
The olfactory mood of Shérdan is deeply tied to the primal elements of earth and sea: the scent opens with a fresh breeze of Marine Notes and Star Anise, recalling the salty air of the Sardinian coast. The balsamic heart of Wild Myrtle and Gurjum Balsam embodies the essence of the Mediterranean scrub, while Cedarwood and Malabar Sandalwood add an enveloping depth in the base.
Geisha
Geisha celebrates the art of femininity in its purest and most refined form, inspired by the timeless elegance of Japanese Geishas. These iconic figures are masters in the arts of dance, singing, and conversation, custodians of a beauty that goes beyond appearances, enchanting with their grace and refinement. Geisha is a whispering perfume, a fragrance that seduces without ever raising its voice, celebrating the innate beauty within every woman.
The olfactory mood of Geisha captures the innocent and disarming sensuality of a young woman who embodies her beauty without ostentation. Floral notes of Jasmine, Orange Blossom, and Geranium give life to a light and captivating fragrance, developing into an enveloping heart dominated by Tuberose. The base, with hints of Vanilla, Amber, and Guaiac Wood, adds depth and warmth, like a silk garment brushing against the skin.
