Poggia
A Tiziana Terenzi fragrance where vibrant citrus and peach lead to ylang-ylang and rose, resting on vanilla and ambergris.
Perfumer: Paolo Terenzi
Poggia
Poggia is an Extrait de Parfum from the Sea Stars collection by Tiziana Terenzi, presenting an effervescent blend of sun-drenched Mediterranean fruits, lush florals, and mineral warmth.
About This Fragrance
The name derives from the Italian maritime term *poggiare*, referring to the deliberate sailing maneuver of turning the bow away from the wind to accelerate the vessel. Capturing the thrill of sudden nautical momentum, the composition translates this kinetic concept into a vibrant, dynamic fragrance structure. Rather than relying on a traditional woody base, the composition features no woods to support its pyramid.
Scent Profile
The fragrance opens with an invigorating burst of citrus, combining sparkling Calabrian bergamot and fragrant Sorrento lemon with rich Syracusian blood orange and the nectarous sweetness of Romagna yellow peach. As the lively opening develops, the heart introduces an intriguing contrast: aromatic rosemary cuts through creamy Polynesian ylang-ylang and velvety Turkish rose, while crisp green apple and passion fruit lend bright, tropical acidity. In the drydown, the base rests on the mineral depth of Mediterranean ambergris, sheer musk, and the gentle sweetness of Madagascan vanilla.
Who It's For & When to Wear It
This fragrance suits individuals who favor vibrant, multifaceted fruity-floral compositions with a distinctive nautical energy. Its bright citrus facets and mouthwatering fruit accords feel exceptionally fitting for warm, luminous daytime wear.
