Description
"On a trip to the Ligurian Riviera, Paolo and Tiziana are inspired by a place where the beauty of the landscape is combined with the unique elegance of Italian style: Portofino. The idea for this new perfume was born during a walk along the coast of this picturesque town, when the bonfires lit for the Falò di San Giorgio festival, with their energy and magic, and their childhood by the sea, which was always fundamental in the main moments of their lives and an inexhaustible source of inspiration for their work, came to mind. The Terenzi siblings are enchanted by the unique setting of Portofino: the crescent-shaped bay, framed by green hills, offers a picturesque sight - a spectacle of breathtaking beauty. In the 1960s, the lifestyle of the Riviera was characterized by the elegance of the dolce vita, and the playboys known as Les Italiens began their triumphal march """"barefoot, in jeans and with windblown hair"""". The Dolce Vita dream could be lived out in picturesque bays and on golden sandy beaches. Celebrities and artists met here to celebrate and enjoy the extraordinary beauty of these landscapes. It was a time of a special way of life on the Riviera, characterized by grace and class. People wore chic clothes and had a sense of beauty. A golden age of fashion and lifestyle, in which Portofino became an icon of elegance and beauty. Elegance understood as the art of adding style and sophistication to every aspect of life, as a visible expression of our sense of beauty, as an audible declaration of our self-image and worldview. This perfume dedicated to Portofino captures the essence of this magical place, taking us on a journey of beauty, art and tradition. The name Rivèa is derived from """"Rive"""", which means beach or promenade in the Ligurian dialect. Whoever smells Rivèa is transported to an atmosphere steeped in the dolce vita and the glorious beauty of Italy.The fragrance opens with a bouquet of Bulgarian rose, accented by Iranian saffron and lemon from Sorrento, on a bed of Indian davana. Generous top notes rest on equally lush, seductive heart notes: vetiver from Laos provides an earthy, woody base, and seaweed from Ligurian Tigullio lends a salty aftertaste reminiscent of the smell of the sea. Ceylon cypriol and amyris from Haiti contribute mossy, woody nuances, patchouli from Singapore adds a slightly earthy touch, and ambergris rounds off the heart with a sensual, captivating note. The base notes of this wonderful creation envelop the senses with a lingering, intoxicating warmth: ambergris is perceptible here too, providing a woody sweetness in combination with Australian sandalwood, while cypress from Portofino adds a touch of Mediterranean freshness, enriched by hints of Madagascar bourbon vanilla. Rivèa captures the soul of Portofino, infusing those who wear it with the energy, elegance and beauty inherent in this enchanting seaside town. La Dolce Vita in a drop of perfume.Top notes: Bulgarian rose, davana, saffron, lemonHeart...
