Keep A Nose Out For Terenzi’s Lilipur And Maremma
Pioneered by family owned company Cereria Terenzi Evelino (founded 45 years ago), Tiziana Terenzi depicts and captures emotions to offer authentic fragrances that embody an intense journey into the sacred fire of the soul. Post exclusive preview of their ‘Extrait de Parfum’ collection, this month will also see the introduction of two new evocative fragrances – Lillipur and Maremma.
With ancient origins dating back to the Roman days of the tales of Horace, and traces of the Terenzi family in 15th century Rimini, it was Guglielmo Terenzi a true lover of perfumes, especially colognes, who embodied the spirit of the inventor and the artist, following his ‘nose’ to create exquisite fragrances in a small artisan laboratory in the family home – the bricks, floors and every nook and cranny of which are still steeped in his spirit and scent to this day!
Guglielmo’s grandchildren have now taken over the legacy and have vowed to further explore these uniquely incomparable scents, offering them for the very first time to those outside of their close circle of family and friends.
By producing some of the finest fragrances available today, Tiziana Terenzi does not compromise on raw materials with every one meticulously chosen and blended with painstaking attention to detail. Fire is the olfactory threat fusing the collection; a moment which represents a life lived to the fullest and most intense. Each perfume also embodies the powerful Faustian desire to try to hold on to a beautiful moment, and the constant exploration of the ‘self and non-self’.
Not simply a perfume, Tiziani Terenzi expresses a journey through emotions and memory, representing the true essence of life, including its imperfections, tensions and dissonances, all of which make the moment utterly beautiful.
The scents themselves are complex creations, giving off an air of mystery by not fully revealing themselves immediately…instead they require reflection. The notes are continually transforming, often invading the bottom of the heart and exploring uncharted territory. It is a precious alchemy in the making, and one which never stops generating new musical notes because of the continual evolution of our emotions and the way it is perceived.
The Fragrances:
Lillipur – Nepal was the inspiration for this new perfume. Encompassed in a gold bottle, it is filled with the transcendent spirit of the place representing the Mystical Fire of the soul and profound understanding. The perfume expresses itself slowly to the wearer, i.e. the traveller; it accompanies them all day long in an intimate sensory experience, one which is continually unfolding. Every inward breath of the perfume is a step closer to one’s true self.
