The story behind Mandragola

Mandragola — "mandrake" in Italian — translates a dressed-up Italian-opera-and-mythology aesthetic into Italian niche perfumery. The saffron-bergamot opening adds a dressed-up Arabian lift; the oud-leather heart pulls in dressed-up Italian-niche luxury codes; and the amber-sandalwood base extends the trail into a long, sensual sillage. A wardrobe pillar for committed Italian niche fragrance enthusiasts.

Who it's for

Suited to wearers who love rich, dressed-up Italian niche orientals — fans of Tiziana Terenzi V Canto Kashimire, Xerjoff Casamorati or Initio Oud for Greatness will find Mandragola a familiar match. Year-round wear with particular strength in autumn and winter; ideal for evening, dinner and special-occasion use.

How to wear it

1. Spray onto pulse points — wrists, base of the throat, behind the ears — from around 15cm.
2. One to two sprays may be enough thanks to the high concentration; build up gently for evening wear.
3. Apply over an unscented body lotion to extend longevity on skin.
