Tiziana Terenzi
A unique visual signature based on accords, character, and seasonality
The first spray unleashes a tidal wave of fruit—passionfruit's tropical funk meets peach's fuzzy sweetness whilst raspberry and cassis create a jammy, almost cloying intensity. There's barely time to register the individual notes before they meld into one voluptuous, sticky-sweet mass that hovers in the air with commanding presence.
As the fruit cocktail settles, lily of the valley attempts to assert itself with its soapy, green freshness, adding a veneer of respectability to the proceedings. The sandalwood begins its creamy emergence, whilst heliotrope introduces an almond-powder softness that shifts the composition from purely fruity towards something more powdery and skin-like.
The base resolves into a musky, vanilla-sweetened haze where sandalwood and patchouli provide woody depth without ever feeling particularly earthy or substantial. It's soft, powdery, and thoroughly sweetened—the ghost of tropical fruit past, now wrapped in clean musks and vanillic comfort that clings close to the skin.
Kirkè is Paolo Terenzi's ode to fruit-sodden hedonism, a fragrance that throws restraint to the wind and wallows in the sticky-sweet pleasures of synthetic tropical abundance. The opening salvo reads like a smoothie bar's entire menu collapsed into liquid form—passionfruit's tart funk collides with peach's lactonic softness whilst raspberry and cassis add jammy tartness, creating an almost aggressively fruity cloud that hovers somewhere between sun-drenched exuberance and synthetic excess. There's an unexpected textural element labelled as 'sand' in the composition, which manifests as a subtle mineral grittiness that keeps the fruit from sliding into complete dessert territory, though only just.
Beneath this fruit avalanche lurks lily of the valley, its green soapiness barely managing to surface through the sweetness, adding a whisper of floral propriety to what's otherwise unapologetically indulgent. The base brings sandalwood's creamy radiance and patchouli's earthy darkness, though they're softened and subdued by vanilla and heliotrope's almond-powder sweetness. Musk rounds everything with a clean, skin-like quality that ultimately steers this towards the powdery rather than overtly animalic.
