Gaggia Medio I
Bright, citrus-edged cardamom moves through smooth sandalwood into rich amber, in an extrait drawn from the alleyways of Dorsoduro.
Dorsoduro, the Venetian district of narrow, winding alleyways, is the starting point here. The name comes from the sandstone-coloured pigment used by Murano glassmakers.
Valmont frames it around chance meetings and the idea of skin against stone: warmth from spice, with a mineral edge running through it.
Cardamom opens with a bright, almost citrus lift. Sandalwood follows and gives the scent a smooth, steady body. Amber settles at the end, rich and slow to fade.
