It’s an honour for to me to know Mendittorosa as a home of the utmost integrity, impressed by the very best urges to characterize “Magnificence”and the soul’s highest expression. Stefania Squeglia is a sleek soul of like and her perfumes replicate this. Mendittorosa Odori d’Anima Ithaka is the primary incarnation of a brand new trilogy ‘Versi Studio’ that attracts primal waters from poetry. The perfumer is the younger Camille Chemardin. On the studying of Ithaka by C P Cavafy (1911), I ask, why will we separate ‘travelling’ and life, for to be alive and drawing breath is travelling.

Mendittorosa Odori d’Anima Ithaka speaks undeniably to journey both upon the globe itself or the inner travelling that yields to us a lot. The Mythology of Antiquity respiration as an ethereal insistence. I’ve usually shed my pores and skin, to resume my life and have lived a number of lifetimes in my unfinished span. All the time the time accelerates, we journey life’s curves and passages, ever extra acutely aware of the passing second, reminded of the sands operating tempo by means of the glass. Crucial to imbibe each sensation and second of the trail chosen, by no means forgetting to take the unknown trails. Within the calls for of the trendy world, how we will overlook to look at and recognize the surprise, the trivialities in awe. The sunlit sea warmed by Mediterranean solar, the wonders of sunshine taking part in on historic stones, or labyrinthine scents of the ages. Journey lays us naked and invitations us at each crossroads and forehead of the hill to sense past our senses. The primary sights of latest places, the palms of latest love upon our pores and skin, the listening to of church bells ringing by means of historic winding streets, the invention of distinctive airs that waft over a specific place scenting your pathway with an unperceived fragrance, that when smelt, imprints immemorial. The immaterial treasures that discover their means below our pores and skin. All assimilated osmotically into our substance.

Sharpened pleasure, our visions swirling, taking type even earlier than land is sighted. The poetry of Constantine P Cavafy urging us to garland ourselves with the treasured pearls of existence.
“As you set out for Ithaka, hope your street is a protracted one,
stuffed with journey, stuffed with discovery.

so long as a uncommon pleasure
stirs your spirit and your physique.” C P Cavafy.

Bergamot, brilliant and inceptive, brings the lightness of being that I affiliate so absolutely with travelling mild in any sphere, the sense of launch and ease of being inside your self. Warmed hues, on the prow of a crusing boat, bathed in an aquatic Magnolia that’s nothing in need of sheer delight, watery and ethereal with a wealthy incense mantle, delicate tendrils emanating from a thousand sticks of the Temple making a delicate physique upon my type. Beckoning me to really feel, to open my eyes, to increase all senses past their modernity dulled capability. Menditorrosa Odori d’Anima, Ithaka asks me to achieve past reminding me again and again of every valuable sensory expertise that’s now.
“might you cease at Phoenician buying and selling stations
to purchase advantageous issues,

as many sensual perfumes as you may;
