Ricina Extrait de Parfum

V Canto Ricina Unisex Eau de Parfum.

The castor oil plant is a plant of extraordinary beauty which, like most beautiful things, hides a deadly secret.

Lucrecia used this marvellous ornamental plant, capable of flowering all year round, full of colour and attractive fruits, as a decoration for her gardens, choosing it, above all, as a secret hiding place for her fearsome poison, masterfully concealed within the seeds of its alluring fruits.

The plant’s deadly beauty inspired her secret plans; she was enchanted by this potent poison from which there is no escape for its victims.

Even today, there is no effective antidote for it, just as there is no possible defence against the persuasive power of this luxurious fragrance, which opens with the fruity, sweet and bitter notes of Sicilian bergamot and orange, tempered by the sweetness of peach and red plum.

The top notes possess an evocative character, dancing sweetly with a heart of opulent flowers, from which jasmine, white iris and peony emerge, embraced by the dreamlike movement of orange blossom.

A creation built upon precious exotic woods, notably patchouli and Cambodian agarwood, expertly softened by the delicacy of sandalwood and the freshness of oakmoss.

A narcotic potion, the most intoxicating in the collection, housed in a beautiful creation that will captivate anyone who dares to smell it.
