Stercus by Orto Parisi is a perfume like no other. Dark and mysterious, layered yet refined. This perfume has a huge sillage and remains perceptible on the skin for a long time.
“The parts of the body that carry more smell are those where more soul is collected. The strong smells have become unpleasant to us, because the excess of soul is intolerable to the extent that out innate animalism is repressed and breaking from civilization. This project is my garden I have planted, fertilized, cultivated, and harvested.” – Alessandro Gualtieri, the perfumer from Orto Parisi
Stercus in Latin means “feces”. Perhaps due to animalic musks in the perfume, but that’s something we will never know as The Nose never discloses his ingredients and stay a secret….
Woody
Woody fragrances are full of character and indeed very woodsy. They can be warm, soothing and creamy, but also dry and spicy. Key ingredients are cedar wood, patchouli, sandalwood and/or vetiver. Oudh (agarwood), Palo Santo and guaiac wood have also joined the perfumer's palet, just like the fantastic synthetics such as Javanol or Iso-E-Super.
