Perfumer: Paolo Terenzi
Il Piacere
Il Piacere by Tiziana Terenzi is an opulent floral-woody extrait de parfum paying tribute to Gabriele D'Annunzio's famous novel, translating the author's decadent aestheticism into scent.
About This Fragrance
Released as part of the brand's Anniversari collection, the scent takes its creative departure from Andrea Sperelli, the aristocratic protagonist devoted to molding his existence into an uncompromising work of art. The Italian perfume house mirrors this literary ethos by rejecting conventional restraint in favor of an expansive palette of floral, fruity, and woody notes.
Scent Profile
The opening is remarkably complex, pairing velvety Bulgarian rose and sparkling Reggio Calabria bergamot with aromatic alpine artemisia, lush hedychium, sun-drenched Romagna peach, and warm Iranian saffron. As the initial fruit and spice settle, an expansive floral heart takes shape, weaving Sambac jasmine, Garda violet, dewy lily of the valley, orange blossom, and Chinese peony over Colombian guaiac wood. The drydown introduces a foundation of Australian sandalwood, Thai ylang-ylang, and ambergris, softened by clean musk and rich Bourbon vanilla from Madagascar.
Who It's For & When to Wear It
With its luxurious density of florals, woods, and ambergris, this expressive extrait appeals to connoisseurs of baroque, multi-layered Italian perfumery. It shines during evening occasions, cultural outings, and cooler seasons when its multifaceted heart and lingering warmth can be appreciated in full detail.
