Where to buy
A tribute to the Corsican maquis but also to one of its most typical shrubs, mastic. In this particularly green composition, mastic appears in all its forms — essence, absolute, extract. It is also blended with very Mediterranean ingredients such as tomato, thyme, mint... A true olfactory revolution.
Corsica Furiosa, the fiery character of Corsica
Corsica Furiosa is described as a bursting, spirited fragrance. Furioso refers to a piece of music that displays an impetuous character... Like the Corsican maquis and its inhabitants, Corsica Furiosa captures this fury of living very well. Corsica Furiosa contrasts scents, colors, landscapes and secrets that make up the beauty of the island. Upon discovering the fragrance Corsica Furiosa, Laurent Marcangéli, the deputy mayor of Ajaccio, expressed his feelings, stating that it highlights Corsica and the Corsican people, a standard-bearer that deserves to be celebrated... Corsica owes its future to those who succeed, and you are one of them. Marc-Antoine Corticchiato was also deeply moved at the awards ceremony of the highly prestigious Fifi Awards 23rd edition, where Corsica Furiosa was named best fragrance among niche houses... Thank you, my Corsica.
Corsica Furiosa, ingredients pushed to the extreme
The opening of Corsica Furiosa is striking, thanks to mastic essence bursting forth in a duo with wild Corsican mint (nepitella). Galbanum and tomato leaves are also swept into this avalanche of green. Then grapefruit releases a few energizing notes. Peppery, aromatic, fruity and earthy facets blend harmoniously and reveal a tender heart made of mastic absolute. Woody and resinous notes are added to lead toward an intimate and moving sillage. As invigorating as a walk through the forest, Corsica Furiosa carries the wearer along paths steeped in different scents, such as humus, cut grass, dry grass, hay, resin or undergrowth... A truly original olfactory journey.
Marc-Antoine Corticchiato depicts in his fragrance everything that Corsica offers that is distinctive, powerful, beautiful and secret. Spirited, Corsica Furiosa aims to be unique and impetuous, in the image of its Island of Beauty. The bottle, for its part, remains understated. Cylindrical, it is simply topped with a gold-toned cap. Whether one knows Corsica or not, this fragrance leads down paths never taken before, surprising at every turn. Corsica Furiosa fills the nose, the eyes, the heart... As powerful as love at first sight.
