Flowered, fresh spicy, gourmand

The first female artist of the Italian Baroque period signs a fragrance with strong chiaroscuri.

Artimitia is an olfactory canvas of contrasting chords, which range from sparkling floral notes to a purely gourmand background.

Artemisia Gentileschi, an eclectic and talented artist, has been forced to struggle in a century of male privilege, a rebellious heroine with a proud character. She displayed her proud femininity and her sensitive soul in her choice of themes and in the most hidden details that can be seen in her paintings.

This is an exploration in the creative artistic female dimension.

The brush strokes in her paintings talk about the intensity of  her life.

It is this exceptional depth of character that gives complexity and richness to the fragrance that pays homage to her.

Artimitia is a bouquet of essences with a very high concentration, Extrait de Parfum 28%, that switches on among floral and fruity notes and continues in a warm heart with hints of gourmand.

Fresh ginger and mandarin, ginger and orange blossom, vanilla, caramelised sugar and candied ginger are combined with woody notes, white musk and amber.

The absolute star of this fragrance is the very precious champaca flower, fruity and spicy, with a typical mottling that plays on orange tones.

The colour cannot be secondary for this new, unique olfactory portrait from Onyrico.

The cap of Artimitia’s bottle is made from green onyx with orange veins. It recalls the colours of the famous self-portrait.

Dante Alighieri, the greatest Italian poet, author of the “Divina Commedia”, one of the masterpieces of world literature, described symbolically, with the image of the White Rose of Paradise, the manifestation of the sublime metaphysical vision.

Mystical flower, feminine symbol of purity and absolute beauty, incarnation of virtuous love that is able to transcend the limits of the human intellect, the white rose is the fresh and clean heart of Empireo, the Onyrico’s fragrance dedicated to Dante’s poem.

We mixed the most sublime essences to interpret the suggestions inspired by this heavenly place where human finitude and infinity become the same in a unique, ecstatic and contemplative vision. The result is a mixture that escapes to easy definitions.

Empireo is a transparent, ozonic, romantic perfume, which fades in the inebriating and sumptuous amber tones and in the penetrating aroma of jasmine sambac.

It is an ode to the classic beauty and virtues embodied by Beatrice, Dante’s muse and symbol of Grace and Truth.

Incense, myrrh and lavender emit purity notes that pay homage to a royal femininity, unattainable. Precious scents, which change on a rich base of aromatic cedarwood and tonka bean.

The bottle is secured by a very precious cap in Rose Onyx marble. Its natural stripings evoke the clouds during the sunset.

The inexhaustible intellectual curiosity, talents expressed in every field of art and knowledge, the symbolic messages disseminated in the masterpieces and hidden between the words of manuscripts, give us only a sketched portrait of Leonardo’s extraordinary personality.

Painter, engineer, scientist, sculptor, architect, botanist and anatomist, Leonardo is, fro the world, "the genius among geniuses," the master investigator of the secrets of the universe.

Ingenium is dedicated to his inexhaustible thirst for knowledge, his ability to represents, through art, the cosmic spirit that dwells in every aspect of nature, to the sublime painter who painted to the highest peaks of the spirit, a scent with many interpretations .

A contrasting shade of woody damask rose, gardenia and masculine tobacco is released from an opening elusive as apparently discordant. Aromatic saffron and bright bergamot take force from a nutmeg spicy note.

The base emerges suggestive and mysterious. Precious woods give off scents of rare evocative depth. Vetiver from Java, with its unmistakable fougère note, symbol of lasting freshness; the aromatic and floral guaiac wood, also called "Lignum Vitae", the noble symbol of longevity; sandalwood, intense and enveloping with vibrant meditative scents.

Seal up the composition the magical alchemy of amber.

The marble is Perlato of Sicily. This particular marble evokes Leonardo Da Vinci drawings.

The fragrance is a Special Edition in Extrait de Parfum 29%.

Each trip is an extraordinary experience that comes from the heart. Whether it’s a physical goal or an imaginary landing, the interest in an unknown location is always the expression of an inner longing, the desire of a free spirit to challenge rules and break down boundaries.

Itineris is a physical journey, sensorial, emotional and metaphorical at the same time. It is the olfactory story of Marco Polo’s historic journey, one of the most celebrated explorers of history, and a tribute to the spirit of adventure that guides the steps of the famous adventurers like those of any passionate traveler.

Left Venice when he was very young, in 1271, he reached with his father and uncle the far East across the Silk Road and became the personal adviser of the great emperor Kublai Khan. He stayed in Asia more than 20 years.

His story, told in the masterpiece entitled “The Million”, it’s adventurous as uplifting. The spirit of curiosity and initiative, his open attitude and his sense of respect for the Land of the Rising Sun, make this extraordinary adventurer also an example of dialogue and respect among peoples.

The notes of Itineris are rich and lively. An opening that reminds silk hints introduces in the secret garden of the emperor, with notes of mandarin and bewitching, honeyed osmanthus. The heart evokes woody ceremonial and treatments of ancient tradition. Intense heliotrope, rose and jasmine adorn the elegant peony, traditionally a flower cultivated for the Orient’s imperial families. A spicy base of amber, sandalwood and vanilla is the seal of a perfume that, in any context, intends to leave a trace.

Seals the bottle a very refined cap in Portoro’s marble. The very dark color with a gold striping pattern, reminds the richness of the emperor palace.

Just saying his name is possible to sum up the grandness of the Italian Renaissance. Sculptor, painter, architect, poet, Michelangelo Buonarroti has realized works among the most admired in the world: the David, the Pietà, the Sistine Chapel’s frescoes.

Simply carries his name, the fragrance we wanted to dedicate to his genius and his versatile talent.

Michelangelo is an eclectic and essential fragrance that follows the Artist’s thought “takes away the superfluous” to enhance the intrinsic peculiarities of each component.

With its enveloping chiaroscuro, the fragrance speaks about the art and nature of his birthplace, but also about a seductive temptation.

The heart of this fresh and fruity fragrance, which turns spicy in the end, is a strong hint of fig, which reminds the extraordinary variety of species that can be found in the hills around Arezzo and recalls the famous scene of the original sin represented in the Sistine Chapel.

Introduced by sparkling notes of bergamot and grapefruit, enhanced by wild cassis, the dominant note of this composition is emphasized by an aromatic woody marigold and sweet magnolia, softened by an inebriating and sensual hyacinth.

Intense vetiver, spicy patchouli, cistus labdanum resin and incense notes seal the bottom, paying tribute to the everlasting value of Michelangelo’s works.

The marble used for the cap is the pearly white, pure, Statuario marble that comes from the quarries of Tuscany. It’s the same marble the master used for his sculptures.

The most exciting symphonies born from dare polyphonic chords.

As the violins are enhanced in the juxtaposition with the low sounds of the timpani, also in a fragrance’s compositions it often happens that soft notes, citrus, give off an unexpected effect if are supported by woody facets.

Rossa Bohème is the most vibrant and multifaceted of the eight Onyrico’s fragrances.

The most carefree and most sensual, the most overwhelming and the most deliberately controversial like the characters of La Bohème by Giacomo Puccini; one of the most famous and loved operas by the audiences around the world.

Controversial and moving is the theme of the melodrama with which the great Italian composer took on stage fresh characters of four young Parisian artists in the 1830: the clash between the cheerful carefreeness and the harshness of existence.

Pink pepper and fragrant cinnamon evoke the exuberant and whimsical Musetta, beloved with violence by the jealous Marcello.

Pure extract of angelica in homage to the poetic and melancholic Mimi, who softens the heart of Rodolfo.

Tobacco, black pepper, cedar and patchouli mark, with impressionist touches, the chiaroscuro paintings that make up the work. But also, to evoke the behind the scenes’ atmosphere.

Velvets of the curtains and costumes, wooden stage and orchestra, aftershave scents vaporized in the dressing room by the most famous tenors. Red Bohéme is a tribute to the theater, to its rites and immortality of the great passions.

The cap of the bottle is made with Red Travertine marble. Red as the color that represents the fragrance.

No one has ever described with higher words the beauty that manifests itself in the wonders of creation. Il “Canto dei Cantici” of Francis of Assisi is the simplest but the most solemn prayer that man has been able to compose to celebrate the gifts of heaven and earth.

We approached timidly to the Umbrian inland places where the mystic lived, often set apart for fasting and penance. Forests, caves, natural shelters that was the background of his ascetic and quintessential life, have become the inspiration for an intense woody fragrance, which bears a name so full of spiritual meanings.

Tau speaks about love and brotherhood, peace, gratitude and harmony between man and nature.

Notes of musk, grew at the foot of ancient oaks, bring you to clearings and trails. Juniper berries, balsamic lentisco and aromatic sage draw shaded plots on dew’s reflections. Birch and cistus labdanum give a resinous base, tenacious, tempered by a lively geranium and by a sparkling bergamot. Shades of leather at the center of the composition, to remember the steps of Francis, who walked so much in those lonely places.

Tau is fresh perfume, atavistic, primordial.

A hymn to the beauty that is released in the simplicity and in the essentials.

In nature there are life and soul, spirit and transcendence.

Verde Alpi is the marble used for the cap. It has the color of the forest that represents hope.

An enchanting and aromatic fragrance will bring you at the time of imperial ancient Rome, where skilled perfumers, called “unguentarii”, created mixtures made by balms and oils.

Caravans of spices in transit on dusty pavements, patrician villas laden for luxury symposium, wineskins filled with musts and aromas.

Unguentum is the opulent and lavish Rome of the Caesars; the cradle of knowledge of Seneca, Cicerone and Lucretius; the city of thermal baths and of arena where gladiators fight.

A blend with a spicy flavor that massages the skin and calms the mind.

Memory of old traditions and of a nation of connoisseurs, that used it not only for cosmetic and religious purposes but also to impregnate, with aromatic substances, horses, sail and furnishings.

There are various historical evidences of personal mixtures prepared for the emperors and for the rich patrician matrons, or for massaging the gladiators’ bodies.

Enhanced by a warm amber, cinnamon and cedar wood, the formulation of Onyrico recovers and reinterprets the “recipe” of the original Royal Unguentum documented by Plinio il Vecchio in his Naturalis Historia. A hot and spicy mixture, learned from oriental perfumer, that was used in the past to honor the Parti’s king.

The heart and the bottom of the fragrance is composed by opoponax, aromatic calamo, saffron, wine and honey.

The cap is made by Roman Travertine. The same used to build the Colosseum.

Floral fresh

The bucolic setting of Sandro Botticelli’s Primavera, a masterpiece of the Italian Renaissance, has inspired a flowery fragrance, fresh and elegant.

Still today, the canvas that can be seen at the Uffizi Gallery in Florence, awakes infinite astonishment thanks to its richness of details and to the extraordinary scientific precision with which herbs and flowers, of the Venus garden, are painted.

Probably chosen for their healthy virtues, associated with colors, stones and metals in alchemic and mysterious doctrines, these botanical treasures are able to pay homage to the goddess of beauty that dominates the center of the complex composition, have become a lively palette of olfactory suggestions to mix with a refined and elegant touch.

The mythological figure of Zephiro, the West Wind that, for love, kidnaps the nymph Chloris, is the leitmotif that enhance every level of the creation. Bergamot and pink pepper notes represents the clear air scents that reach a bed of moss, amber and vanilla, on which stand out vivid floral notes. Among them, the sparkling neroli underlined by fresh galbanum plays deliberately, contrasting with very sensual flowers.

The absolute star of Zephiro is the provocative tuberose. A flower with a forbidden charm, narcotic and sensual that the young girls, during the Renaissance, were forbidden to smell, to avoid  the risk of falling into temptation.

The Rosa Egizio marble is used as cap for this fragrance, it recalls the Tuberose and what it represents.

Dûsara is a dazzling mirage in the desert where history and olfactory traditions meet before an imposing rocky massif. Innumerable suggestions enrich this warm and spicy fragrance dedicated to the patron god of Petra, the ancient city in Jordan carved into rock by the Nabataeans.

Mythical trees protected by terrible winged monsters accompany the aromas emanating from precious resins: this ancient nomadic population originally from the Arabian peninsula carried them along the Incense Road.

Saffron, Somalian inscense and ancient woods enhance the desert component.

The inebriating aromas of spice markets and the saturated colours of Hindu temples transport you to the dusty roads of ancient India. Īśvara, a Sanskrit term referring to “the Supreme Spirit of the Universe”, is a journey through suggestions and mysteries, Ayurvedic knowledge and love rituals of the fascinating civilisation of the Dravidians.

We owe the incomprehensible secrets handed down on the seals and constructions of Harappa and Mohenjo Daro, as well as a wealth of advanced knowledge transmitted in the Vedas, the sacred books, to the ancient people who prospered on the banks of the Indus River for a thousand years.

The aphrodisiac Saffron, traditionally diluted in milk, is combined with the balsamic Benzoin to open and complete a composition that recalls the ointments that have always been used in couple's rituals.

The luxuriant "horti" of the philosophers, the parietal paintings of the patrician villas and the sunny views of the Gulf of Naples echo in the olfactory mosaic of this fragrance dedicated to ancient Pompeii. Fresh and fruity aromas welcome you to the laboratory of the "Perfumer's House" and reveal the secrets of the deep aromatic knowledge acquired by the Romans.
