Hyakutake

Hyakutake by Tiziana Terenzi

Tiziana and Paolo’s intergalactic journey to discover the celestial emotions produced by magical stellar fires continues. Stars, in fact, are luminous fires that shine in the celestial vault, lighting up our nights. Comets boast a distinctive, legendary charm, with their light able to bring gifts of joy, hope and good fortune to mankind and those who have eyes to see them. The creation is inspired by the world-famous Comet Hyakutake, which passed close to earth on its endless journey in January 1996.

Known for its long, very bright tail, it was discovered by a Japanese amateur astronomer, Yuji Hyakutake, sparking great astonishment in the scientific community. Just like this fragrance dedicated to it, full of mystery and charm, it is capable of revealing itself to pure eyes only, those able to look where most cannot see. In the darkness of the deepest night, a powerful light pierced the sky on that cold January day, and now this perfume warms the heart of whoever wears it, giving them an aura of mystery and wild charm. Hyakutake opens with a ‘hesperidian’ accord dominated by the effervescence of Sorrento Lemon and Reggio Calabrian Bergamot, enriched by the spicy aromas of highly sophisticated Malabar Cardamom and the balsamic reverberations of Greek Eucalyptus.

The head folds gently into an embrace given by the heart of the creation, where the delicacy of Italian Wild Pansy and the strength of Tuscan Orris blend with the persuasive combination of Ambergris and Omani Incense. The base is characterised by an acrobatic balance of woods, where the trilogy of Japanese Larch, Australian Sandalwood and African Iroko reverberate powerfully, softened and emphasised by the scent of Virginian Tobacco and Haitian Vetiver. This creation is imbued with mystery and seductive elegance, capable of ravishing and bewitching, seducing and conquering, but above all capable of warming hearts with the joy of its stately, timeless aroma, because its irresistible charm is suspended in the timeline, just like travelling comets floating in the celestial sphere.
