This highly concentrated perfume extract (35%) turns a criminal story into a gourmand, woody and resolutely singular fragrance. An olfactory composition like no other: at once soft and unsettling, luminous and dark, it speaks to lovers of author perfumery in search of a unique signature.

The dark gourmand of the Crime Collection

An olfactory tribute to Leonarda Cianciulli, the soap-maker of Correggio, this perfume stages a duality of madness and maternal love. The strange soap-and-blood opening gives way to a troubling gourmand heart of biscuit and raspberry, then to an opulent base of oud and dark chocolate. The sillage is intense and the longevity exceptional: count on more than 12 hours on the skin, with projection and lasting power rated 5/5.

The olfactory journey, step by step

Opening — the domestic workshop

Artisanal soap and caustic soda evoke the soap-maker's workshop. Blood orange, black pepper and the blood accord set up a ferrous, troubling tension that is immediately recognisable.

Heart — an ambiguous sweetness

Chantilly cream and homemade biscuits bring an almost maternal tenderness, at once disturbed by raspberry syrup and metallic notes that recall the fragrance's dark side.

Base — a dark opulence

Animalic woody oud, volcanic sulphur, dark chocolate and ambergris draw a dense, enveloping and memorable sillage. It is this base that ensures the 12-hour-plus longevity and the inimitable signature of this perfume.
