COMPOSITION

Ithaka opens with a sublime bergamot blast, which lingers on the skin for hours and the transformation to spicy, woody and resinous dry-down. A sweet aroma of citrus, green and balsamic notes, heavenly uplifted once applied on the skin, turning it into a calm voyage. Ithaka, The mythical city of Ulysses adventures. It is like a return to port. The fresh of the sea. When the crew puts their feet to the ground, the scent evolves and warms up and becomes richer with amber, vanilla and the notes of incense woods and gourmand undertones. Then we discover the richness of the Phoenician markets with scents of incense, patchouli, benzoin and sandalwood notes. Then the idea to bring freshness to the arrival to port with marine notes and wooden boat full of amber, gems and precious essences. It’s an olfactory journey, a history of travel and discoveries.
