«Bergamot is elegant, lemon is energetic, mandarin is cheerful. Orange is sunny and ironic. In the Italian city of Ivrea, not far from Turin, a battle of oranges is the highlight of the annual carnival celebrations. In 1801 oranges became a symbol of military defeat when Prince Manuel Godoy y Álvarez de Faria sent a basket of these fruits to his mistress the Queen to celebrate the victory of Spain over Portugal. Only to take their revenge by bearing the name of Portugal for many years after that in the perfume industry. The oranges extoled and sold by merchants accompany the tragic end of Carmen in Bizet’s homonymous opera. But my favourite story is a Christmas one. In December, oranges are a gift of light, a message hinting to the end of winter, rebel fruits wearing the colour of summer». Jean-Claude Ellena
A fruit so juicy and carnal as to be linked, in the collective imagination, to battles and celebrations. As popular and earthly in our memories, as it is elegant and sophisticated in olfactory compositions.
Laboratorio Olfattivo Extreme – Underground Vibes Eau de Parfum
Antoine Lie
For this groundbreaking fragrance, Laboratorio Olfattivo inaugurates a new collaboration with a master perfumer renowned for his very original olfactory signature, Antoine Lie. This perfume is an ode to creativity, a fragrance that can amaze. Underground Vibes takes us to unexplored places, guiding us on an unforgettable olfactory journey.
“The inspiration for this perfume was to represent the smell of raves, underground parties in many cities. The electric and hallucinatory atmosphere of secret hangouts, post-industrial places and underground car parks. I wanted to represent, in the form of perfume, the evocative smells of substances linked to the artificial paradises that circulate in these places. A distilled essence of elements tied to a psychotropic experience.”
Laboratorio Olfattivo In Fiore – Tiglio Mirabilis Eau de Parfum
Luca Maffei
Someone says that the linden scent encourages human relationships, donating comfort and well-being. Tiglio Mirabilis, a fragrance that encloses all the pleasure, peace and quiet that linden blooms spread with their early-summer scent, will enrich the Laboratorio in Fiore collection. The Perfumer Luca Maffei has made spices and flowers dance together with a gentle, soft woody and musky base, conveying a feeling of positive energy, typical of a summer day. It seems as linden, with its heart- shaped leaves, is destined to share a joyous and romantic message for something magic that is about to come and that will last forever.
Laboratorio Olfattivo Viaggio in Italia Jean Claude Ellena – Pompelmo Parfum Cologne
Jean-Claude Ellena
Pompelmo has taken my olfactory journey inspired to Italian Citruses to the end.
Born in Asia, where considered a sacred fruit to be offered to Gods, Grapefruit, as most citrus fruits, first appeared in Spain, in Seville, around the XII-XIII century during the Arab domination.
Probably, one of the greatest citruses, I particularly appreciate Grapefruit for its bitter flavour.
Unlike sweet scents which I find to be obvious and uninspiring, bitter represents, in my opinion, one of the brightest scents. This may be the result of my Italian background, where several beverages celebrate bitterness.
To make Pompelmo a unique and different fragrance, I have worked on both the lively and sour freshness of Grapefruit, while stressing its bitter scent.

Mandarino, Limone and Bergamotto are the fragrances of the collection “Viaggio in Italia”, a journey to Italy, fragrances that are like sunshine in winter.
« Limone has its origins in one of my journeys on the Amalfi Coast. The coast road is narrow and runs alongside the cliffs, which plunge into the blue of the Mediterranean. At each bend the landscape surprises you. Understanding nature’s magic, men and women have built terraces to lovingly cultivate lemon trees. It is impossible to resist the beauty of these places where the yellow lemon cuts across the coppery blue of stone walls. Between the bright and cheerful yellow and a lavish, princely blue, I found the theme for a new Cologne, unquestionably aristocratic ». Jean-Claude Ellena

« Although citrus fruits originate from China, Bergamot is Italian. It is a pity that nobody knows who created it by crossing a lemon tree with a bitter orange: this inventor might have been honoured in the same way as the colleague Clément, who invented the clementine. Italian traders managed to sell Bergamot to the Chinese Market to add fragrance to their second-rate tea, which they sold back to the English Market. I am often asked whether I have olfactory preferences. I have always said I do not, wishing to conceal the manipulations I perform on fragrances, as the work of a perfumer is always that of an illusionist. Yes, I have preferences and they vary according to my needs, my desires. I have passing loves, as well as solid, perennial loves, among which there is my love for bergamot. It was time for me to make that official ». Jean-Claude Ellen

Laboratorio Olfattivo Master´s Collection – Vetyverso Eau de Parfum
Lucien Ferrero
The Inspiration
«From every trip, I have always brought back an olfactory memory of the places visited. From a trip to the Antilles, I can recall the memory of their olfactory power: on the slopes of the volcanoes grow the roots of Vetiver, with its virile and woody notes. Here the mornings shine with the freshness of citrus fruits and, little by little, the air vibrates with noble and precious spicy scents. It was from these first memories that I built Vetyverso: a fragrance with a decisive and intriguing trail».
Description
The noble root of Vetiver, which has always been known for its beneficial properties, famed for its capability to ward off negative energy, an essence very much in vogue in the seventies and eighties, returns to express all its elegance in Vetyverso. The green and yet at the same time woody character of Vetiver is illuminated by citrus scents and made sparkling by spicy notes forming a perfect fragrance to be worn by man but also by women who are seeking an olfactory surprise on their skin.
