Perfumer: Paolo Terenzi
Afrodite
*Afrodite* is an Extrait de Parfum from Tiziana Terenzi's Anniversary collection, inspired by the Mediterranean myth of the goddess of love.
About This Fragrance
The fragrance takes its creative cue from the ruins of Paphos on Cyprus, where Aphrodite first appeared. Inspired by azure waters and a bonfire on the plateau, the composition pairs an opulent floral bouquet with patchouli, ebony, and sandalwood.
Scent Profile
The opening pairs sharp pink pepper with delicate lilac blossoms, immediately enriched by the velvety sweetness of vanilla berries, ripe white peach, and tart white currant. This fruit-laced opening leads into an expansive floral heart centered on tuberose absolute, counterbalanced by fresh neroli, powdery iris, green geranium, and dew-drenched lily of the valley. In the drydown, dark ebony and earthy patchouli create a firm structural foundation, softened by creamy sandalwood and rounded out by gray amber and soft musk.
Who It's For & When to Wear It
With its complex balance of lush white florals, ripe stone fruit, and dark base woods, *Afrodite* is well suited for evening wear, festive gatherings, or cooler seasons when richer floral compositions can unfurl with clarity. It appeals to individuals who gravitate toward substantial, multifaceted floral-woody fragrances.
