Orionis
Orionis by Tiziana Terenzi is a rich oriental extrait de parfum formulated with a high proportion of natural oils and aged materials.
About This Fragrance
Inspired by the prominent star in the constellation Orion, this fragrance utilizes rare aromatics and vintage ingredients preserved in the Terenzi family archives. Formulated at a concentrated extrait strength, it focuses on complex resinous and balsam notes, presenting an unapologetically warm and dense profile.
Scent Profile
The perfume begins with an immediate, assertive opening of rare Molise saffron combined with the dry, meditative aroma of Miramar frankincense. This quickly gives way to a full-bodied heart dominated by mature ambergris, which imparts a rich animalic warmth. Musk and earthy Indian red patchouli interweave with the ambergris, creating a textured, grounding bridge between spice and woods. As it dries down, the foundation unfolds into deep resins and sweet undertones led by Tolu balsam and benzoin. Vanilla softens the dense, smoky facets of oud and wood, leaving a balsamic warmth.
Who It's For & When to Wear It
With its pronounced balsamic warmth and spicy resinous profile, it is well suited for evening wear, intimate dinner settings, and cooler weather.
