Lince
Sicilian citrus, herbal absinthe, and florals rest on a base of vanilla and ambergris.
Perfumer: Paolo Terenzi
Lince
Crafted by Tiziana Terenzi as part of the celestial Luna collection, *Lince* is an Extrait de Parfum inspired by the rare, pulsing stars of the Lynx constellation and the nighttime atmosphere of Sicily.
About This Fragrance
The creation originates from childhood memories of a cold late-winter night with light mist in Palermo during solstice celebrations, where bonfires illuminated historic baroque palaces and flower-strewn pathways. Framed by the mythical hippogriff narrative that informs the Luna series, the composition mirrors the revelation of distant celestial lights, translating twinkling nocturnal mysteries into a blend of Mediterranean fruit and floral accords.
Scent Profile
The fragrance unfolds with an invigorating burst of sparkling Sicilian citrus, blending bright bergamot and sweet orange with tart grapefruit, swiftly countered by the intriguing bitter green herbal character of absinthe, aromatic star anise, and dry green tea. In the heart, a bouquet of narcotic jasmine absolute, powdery iris, velvet Bulgarian rose, and sweet orange blossom emerges, enriched by the succulent green-milky sweetness of ripe Mediterranean fig. As the floral bouquet mellows, the drydown reveals a base where smooth Indian sandalwood intertwines with rich vanilla bean and delicate vanilla flower, enveloped in almond-tinted powdery heliotrope, musk, and the salty, mineral warmth of fine ambergris.
Who It's For & When to Wear It
This radiant yet plush amber-floral creation is well suited for fragrance enthusiasts who delight in dynamic transitions from brisk citrus aromatics to creamy, powdered vanilla drydowns. Its comforting warmth and nuanced floral depth make it suitable for elegant evening gatherings, romantic dinners, and crisp autumn or winter occasions.
