Boia Extrait de Parfum

V Canto Boia Unisex Extrait de Parfum.

This fragrance is inspired by a figure from ancient Greece known as the boutypos, "The Ox-Slayer." In that context, this person was responsible for performing ritual sacrifices.

Later, the Greek term "boietai" became associated with the strips of bovine hide used to make whips and belts employed in torture methods.

In Roman times, this term initially referred to the collar used to immobilize prisoners, and later came to indicate the figure of the executioner himself.

Eventually, it came to the "Boia" (executioner) of the court of Gradara, appointed directly by the king, who was responsible for executing all those who committed a crime or injustice.

Boia is an exquisite fragrance that captures the essence of power and determination.

This creation evokes an aura of mystery, inspired by the historical past and a somber and sinister figure. The role of the executioner has often been interpreted with a certain ambivalence in society, as some considered him a necessary enforcer of justice, while others viewed him as a controversial and often feared figure.

With its powerful and mysterious notes, this creation invites you to explore and embrace your own inner duality, to accept and understand the different aspects of every human nature, including the dark side, while promoting harmony between the dark and light sides through a journey in search of balance and harmony.

Its notes embody the complexity, beauty, and imperfection of the human being.

The gray velvet of the bottle, characteristic of Anime del Castello V Canto, caresses the skin of the wearer, contrasting with the harshness of the straps that bound the victims before their execution.

Holding this bottle is synonymous with experiencing a unique sensory journey that will captivate all the senses. Upon touching it, you'll feel the perfect contrast between the light velvet and the heavy, lacquered metal cap, inspired by a knight's helmet.
