Description

Optico Profumi Sri Lanka

Sri Lanka is an intoxicating yet delicate perfume with a pleasantly spicy and exotic accord. It opens with zesty notes of ginger, a root commonly found growing on the island off the coast of India, to then reveal a seductive heart of Ceylon tea, a precious ingredient with invigorating properties. Base notes of vetiver and Lebanese cedar finish the fragrance, leaving a long-lasting trail and unforgettable impression.

Legend has it that tea was discovered by an Indian buddhist monk named Dharma. During a trip to China, the monk committed himself to an extremely long meditation session. At the end of the seventh year of uninterrupted meditation, he suddenly fell asleep. When Dharma awakened, he decided to punish himself by removing his own eyelids to never sleep again. Buddha was moved by such devotion, and where Dharma had buried his eyelids, tea plants with eyelid-shaped leaves began to grow. The monk chewed on some leaves and they immediately revived him; he could then meditate without yielding to tiredness.

AUTHOR – NICOLA BIANCHI

Nicola Bianchi is the perfect artisan to carry out the company’s vision. Long before his internship with the International Flavors & Fragrances (IFF) in France, Bianchi was mentored by his father and family, who for generations were masters in the world of essences.

His family’s “olfactory library” included the most exclusive natural and the most innovative aroma chemicals in the field of fine fragrances. With access to these rare, raw materials from all over the world, Bianchi began to memorize the nuances of the ingredients. This early training, in combination with his passion for the craft of perfumery, developed him as an artisan.

“The art of perfumery is a combination of practice, technical knowledge, and creativity—three elements that must be perfectly balanced,” he says. “You do not become a perfumer if you do not have the practice and if you do not know the interactions between the materials. You are not an artist if you do not listen to and follow your inspiration.”
