details and insight :
Fornasetti Profumi’s best selling Flora scent created by Emmanuel Philip, returns this fall with Ortenisa, a dual-faced design. Ortensia takes inspiration from the hydrangea shrubs that grow in the Via Bazzini garden at the Fornasetti estate in Milan. On one side, the face is camouflaged in the Ortensia leaves. Benevolent? Malevolent? It reminds us of savages observing explorers in an exotic jungle. On the other side, the quintessential Fornasetti quirkiness resurfaces, the face is unnerved that a bee has landed on its nose. It is hand-poured and made of 100% vegetal wax and housed in a decorative ceramic jar with a lid. Features a long-lasting and clean burn for up to 60 hours.
The scent is inspired partly by the lush flora that fills the gardens that envelope the Fornasetti house in Milan but also by the floral imagery created by Piero Fornasetti and taken from the vast archive. ‘Flora di Fornasetti’ is a voluptuous melange of floral, green and woody notes including ivy, lily of the valley, iris, jasmine, tuberose, sandalwood and musk.
The Notes:
Top Notes: vy, Lily Of the Valley, White Rose
Middle Notes: Iris, Orange Blossom, Jasmine
Base Notes: Tuberose, Sandlewood, Musk
