Italian niche line Santa Maria Novella has launched Ambra and Incenso, two new fragrances in the brand’s I Giardini Medicei collection.
Ambra ~ Amber oriental. “A fascinating olfactory story that forges a bond between the enigmatic East and the citrus fruits so beloved by the Medici family. A collaboration as irreplaceable as the raw ingredients of Ambra Eau de Parfum, which link the history of Florence to the most remote lands. // Ambra Eau de Parfum stems from the encounter between the liveliness of bergamot and the profound timber of amber and myrrh. The resinous and enveloping heart fades into the patchouli and sandalwood base: it amplifies the warmth and depth of the composition. This fragrance is the interpretation of a winter garden nestled within the Medici’s Florentine court.”
Incenso ~ Spicy woody. “A fragrance that can summon the most intimate and evocative settings. Incenso Eau de Parfum guides us on a sensory journey through time and space, to discover an element that is resin, plant and precious substance all at once. An olfactory harmony of wood and spices, as subtle as it is intense. // In Incenso Eau de Parfum, the intensity of the cardamom and the pink pepper leads the way to a mysterious heart of incense and papyrus, which complete the composition alongside the vetiver base. This fragrance captures the essence of a winter garden transported into the Medici’s Florentine court.”
Santa Maria Novella Ambra and Incenso are available in 100 ml Eau de Parfum.
