Venice Rococo EDP ARQUISTE

A coquettish, powdery floral capturing the decadence of 18th century Venice, its rococo interiors and clandestine affairs. Black violet, blush rose, and chamomile nestled on an impossibly soft base of dusty iris and subtle, animalic amber. 

History
September 1757, Casino Venier, Venice.
In a hidden alley in the heart of Venice lies a small ridotto, a secret apartment for intimate affairs. A rosewood door opens to a pastel-colored room of powder pink, pale green and pearl white. Suspended in a perfumed cloud of violet, rose and iris, stucco carvings of frothy clouds, delicate garlands and mischievous cherubs appear to dance in the gentle flicker of candlelight. Amidst this sensory haven, the strains of a mandolin emanate mysteriously from behind a wall, the musician concealed from prying eyes. The subtle background melody intertwines with the hushed conversations and shared laughter of two lovers, enveloping them in the enchantment of their clandestine encounter.

Developed with Rodrigo Flores Roux.
