Gritti
A unique visual signature based on accords, character, and seasonality
The first fifteen minutes bristle with tropical energy—lychee's tart sweetness and mango blossom's creamy brightness clash pleasantly, immediately softened by heliotrope's powdery insistence. It's almost fizzy in its vitality, though already somewhat one-dimensional, lacking the complexity that might reward repeated sniffing.
As the opening fades, white peach becomes the centrepiece, its fuzzy stone-fruit character allowing caramel and cream to weave in seamlessly. The fragrance settles into a genuinely comforting second act—no longer tropical but creamy and warm, with the caramel adding a subtle depth that prevents it from becoming a simple peachy-vanilla affair.
Bourbon vanilla anchors everything, whilst cashmeran and white musk create a soft, intimate base that clings rather than projects. The fragrance becomes decidedly skin-scent territory here, a subtle sweetness that's more felt than smelled, maintaining the creamy character but losing most definition and longevity.
Gossip Night is a fragrance that leans unapologetically into indulgence, trading complexity for a straightforward hedonistic pleasure. Luca Gritti has crafted something that feels less like a traditional perfume and more like a wearable dessert—specifically, the kind you'd sneak from the kitchen at midnight when no one's watching.
The opening salvo of lychee and mango blossom arrives with a tropical brightness, but heliotrope immediately softens this into something almost powdery, preventing the fruit from becoming sharp or juicy. What's clever here is how quickly the fragrance pivots: within minutes, white peach emerges to bridge the gap between fruity and creamy, acting as a liaison officer between the top notes' brightness and what's coming next.
