V Canto - BOIA
Boia is inspired by a figure from ancient Greece known as the 'ox-killer'. At that time, these individuals were responsible for performing ritual sacrifices. Eventually the 'boia' or executioner at the court of Gradara; appointed by the king, responsible for putting to death those who committed crimes. Boia is a precious scent that captures strength and determination. This creation evokes an aura of mystery, inspired by history and a dark figure.
The role of the executioner is often interpreted with ambivalence; some regarded him as a necessary judicial officer, while others feared him. With its powerful and mysterious notes, this creation invites you to explore and embrace the different aspects of your personality, including the darkness, but promoting balance and harmony between your light and dark sides. The fragrance notes celebrate the complexity, beauty and imperfection of humanity.
The fragrance opens with softness thanks to the Bulgarian rose petals that merge romantically and passionately with the freshness of Sorrento Lemon. Sri Lankan Davana and Iranian saffron add depth and intrigue, while Italian lavender offers a refined floral touch against the spicy sweetness of Indian coumarin. Australian sandalwood embraces the woody notes, while Madagascar vanilla and Ambergris provide a touch of sweetness and depth.
Boia embodies mystery, self-discovery and the revelations of our soul, reflecting both the luminous essence and the deep darkness that lies within each of us.
