Verna
A Luna Collection extrait blending coastal saffron, leather, lush florals, and aromatic herbs.
Perfumer: Paolo Terenzi
Verna
*Verna* is an Extrait de Parfum by Italian niche house Tiziana Terenzi, released as part of the brand's celestial Luna Collection. The composition is conceived as an olfactory tribute to Vernazza, a dramatic coastal village in the Cinque Terre framed by rugged cliffs and the Ligurian Sea.
About This Fragrance
The creative narrative draws inspiration from an evening walk through Vernazza beneath the shadowy presence of the Black Moon, a symbol of transformation, rebirth, and uncharted horizons. In the seaside harbour where marine air meets steep terraced terrain, Paolo and Tiziana Terenzi drew on the Ligurian landscape, evoking the cliffside village through a composition of saffron, lush florals, leather, and aromatic herbs.
Scent Profile
The opening introduces a bright, piquant warmth led by saffron from the Cinque Terre, paired with the rosy zest of Chilean pink pepper and Bulgarian rose. This radiant introduction deepens into an opulent heart where lush Thai ylang-ylang and Indian jasmine sambac interlace with Vernazza cedarwood, smooth Tuscan leather, and creamy Mexican tuberose, balanced by juicy Romagna peach and exotic Brazilian coconut. As the development reaches its drydown, verdant Tigullio fern and aromatic Ligurian wild fennel merge with rich ambergris, soft musk, balsamic coumarin, and Madagascar bourbon vanilla.
Who It's For & When to Wear It
This expressive extrait appeals to wearers drawn to opulent floral leathers enriched with Mediterranean herbs and gourmand sweetness. Its layered warmth and dramatic balsamic contrast suit evening gatherings and special occasions.
