The fragrance Via Camerelle is named after the most famous, bustling commercial street on the enchanting island of Capri. Legend has it that back in the distant year of 1380, on the occasion of the queen's arrival, local monks lavishly decorated their monastery with flowers from the island. Later, with the help of an alchemist, they created the first perfumes based on these flowers. Many centuries later, in 1948, a new abbot discovered the formula of this ancient perfume and attempted to recreate it. Thus, from a unique and romantic legend, the renowned perfume house Carthusia was founded, captivating with its beautiful fragrances to this day.
In the Carthusia Via Camerelle fragrance, the freshness of lemon and bitter orange is distinctly present, combined with the notes of sea moss and cedarwood. This unisex perfume is designed for joyful men and women alike, to celebrate together their love for the sea, flowers, and life!
The description missed out on mentioning marjoram, but it takes the spotlight here. The pyramid contains everything that was promised, with no surprises. Marjoram sits on a pillow made of zesty oranges/lemons, which dilute the watery white flowers, giving a hint of sweetness, all on a musky cedar base. The latter adds weight and a touch of aristocracy to the scent. Refreshing, not heavy, harmonious, and sunny. And definitely not like cologne. Those who write such things have never used a good cologne or water. And their greatest advantage is that there are no copies or anything similar from others.
Cool scent! It smells like fresh marjoram and something else that is pleasantly natural and fresh. It doesn't last very long on the skin, about 3-4 hours. But the satisfaction is abundant!
