The Fabbrica della Musa brand has been represented at Aus Liebe zum Duft for a few weeks now with six eaux de parfum and I would therefore like to take the opportunity to introduce you to the label’s collection here. What is exciting is who is behind the fragrance house: Barbara Adelmann, who has been in the fragrance business for many years, and her husband, the well-known perfumer Hamid Merati-Kashani. He is of course responsible for the olfactory realization of the creations, which makes me all the more curious about the fragrances.
Fabbrica della Musa presents a collection of vibrant, sparkling and beguiling fragrances that capture sensual scents, refreshing aromas and the sunny dolce vita of Italy with the help of inspiring natural ingredients. From Italy to the whole world: Fabbrica della Musa transforms inspiring impulses into fragrances and offers a unique collection.
The collection comprises six fragrances, which are clearly divided into masculine and feminine fragrances. The creations for women are in white and gold, those for men in black and silver. I would like to introduce you to one pair each today and in my upcoming posts, starting with Via Velluto and Magia Maestrale.
Via Velluto – Fabbrica della Musa
Via Velluto is a fragrance that connects Italy with the Orient and Asia. A reminiscence of the Silk Road and a composition inspired by the “sophistication and beauty of velvet”. Perfumer Hamid Merati-Kashani combined the ingredients raspberry, red fruits, incense, Damask rose, jasmine, peony, musk, leather, vetiver and sandalwood to create a fragrance that is as glamorous as it is elegant and sensual.
The opening of Via Velluto is very light, very transparent and airy thanks to delicate rose nuances and aquatic peony, which meet cool incense and fine berry accents. All of this moves in a state of maximum transparency, appearing lucid, clear and at times barely tangible. Gentle, light leather joins in, followed by powdery, crystalline and creamy woods.
Via Velluto is a heavenly, delicate and light and airy eau de parfum that combines fruity, floral and fine leathery aspects in an extremely minimalist and modern way. The white color of the bottle fits perfectly with the composition, which I would also classify in terms of color. The reference to the Silk Road spontaneously made me think of a lavish creation, of oriental spices, luxurious fabrics, gold and precious stones, but in reality the fragrance is a light-flooded, clear, rather skin-tight and elegant composition that is absolutely suitable for everyday wear and the office and can be worn all year round.
Magia Maestrale – Magical wind
Magia Maestrale is dedicated to the mistral, the cool wind that can cause strong gusts, especially in the summer months around Sardinia. For this reason, it is popular with all water sports enthusiasts who need windy conditions, such as windsurfers, kitesurfers and sailors. The mistral originates in the Rhone Valley and then moves across Provence and southern France towards the Mediterranean. It is therefore understandable that perfumer Hamid Merati-Kashani includes the ingredient lavender in this composition and combines the characteristic Provence plant with cinnamon, lemon, mandarin, geranium, jasmine, bourbon vanilla, benzoin resin, guaiac wood and cedar wood.
Herbaceous lavender and fresh citrus fruits bring cool and salty sea accents to Magia Maestrale, creating a tart, maritime mood right from the start, which in my opinion goes wonderfully with a cool and gusty wind. The spicy sharpness of cinnamon joins in as the fragrance progresses, accompanied by minty green geranium and the creamy notes of jasmine and benzoin resin, which lend the eau de parfum soft, supple and velvety facets and soften the herbaceous coolness of the opening. The finish also reveals smoky, powdery and light woody nuances that round off the composition with a discreetly leathery and warm note.
Magia Maestrale is a rather masculine fragrance – as the black and silver color scheme suggests – that has a fresh, herbaceous and maritime feel. This creation is also transparent, airy and should be ideal for anyone who prefers tart compositions with fougère barbershop vibes. Suitable for everyday wear and the office and can be worn all year round, making it a true all-rounder. 😊
