Convivio
Bright Italian citrus and Tuscan cypress, settling into warm woods and frankincense.
Perfumer: Fabrice Pellegrin
Convivio is about the pleasure of living alongside other people, sharing the moment you are in, and the warmth of Tuscans laughing in bright sunshine, drawn here in citrus and wood.
It opens with Italian bergamot and grapefruit. Their juicy acidity and light bitterness burst first, then carrot seed adds a dry, earthy woodiness that gives the brightness some depth. At the heart is cypress wood, a tree that stands for Tuscany: its upright, green conifer tone is softened by airy jasmine petals, while violet wood lays down a second, gentler line of wood.
The base joins the smoothness of a cashmere wood accord with the clear resin of frankincense and the warmth of Ambrox, so the lively citrus start is received and closed by something quieter and warm.
