Xerjoff - Casamorati 1888 - Italica
With an inviting gesture, richly decorated doors open to reveal the aesthetic perfection of days gone by: Italica's origins, as part of the Casamorati collection brought back to life by Xerjoff, lie in an era marked by extraordinary elegance - Dressed in dark red, Italica appears as a fragrant and sophisticated gourmand relic of the Art Nouveau era. Originally designed exclusively for the noble London department store Harvey Nichols, Italica reveals the seductive sounds of a truly breathtaking era.
The fragrance
With the pastel sweetness of soft milk notes surrounded by creamy almonds, Italica flatters the senses in its very first scent impression. This prelude is contrasted by noble sounds of spicy saffron, a true rarity with an overwhelming fragrance character. They are followed by Italica's sensual heart note of vanilla and toffee. It exudes its gourmand, soft, sweet character, elegantly underscored by white musk, which nestles sublimely against the velvety melange - while sandalwood and cedarwood in the base of the fragrance intones deep, lively sounds. They manage to perfectly round out the deep radiance of the graceful vintage tones in extravagant garb. With Casamorati Italica, Xerjoff provides the extraordinary insight into an age filled with mysterious glow.
