The Grands Crus Collection by Berdoues

In the world of wine, a Grand Cru always tells the story of the terroir from which it comes. This is precisely the ambition of this assortment of fragrances from the prestigious house of Berdoues. Originally, the house made its name selling Eaux de Cologne. It emerged as a pioneer of modern perfumery. It is this prestigious past that the Grands Crus Collection references today. Each of the juices forming this collection is conceived as a Cologne reimagined with modernity. What is more, each of them brings together the finest raw materials in the world to transport us to a particular corner of the globe. These are different interpretations of an olfactory terroir in the form of fragrances. The Grands Crus Collection offers incomparable quality and fully deserves this prestigious name. Moreover, each of the juices presented in it, including Scorza di Sicilia, has undergone extended maceration in vats, which allows them to release their character and power with a stronger personality.

Scorza di Sicilia, the most Italian of Berdoues's fragrances

Scorza di Sicilia thus appears as a concentrate of Italy. Its name literally means peel of Sicily. It is conceived in the image of an Italian woman and asserts a character that is very pronounced but also very sparkling. It is a fragrance conceived with sweetness and luminosity. It is akin to an encounter between Calabrian lemon and woody tonalities. The result is a very structured, intense and citrus product. The Calabrian lemon is harvested at the southern tip of Italy and enjoys worldwide renown. It owes its fame to its highly fragrant and delicately tangy peel. Then, Scorza di Sicilia is further enhanced with Virginia cedar, a tree deeply rooted in American soil, whose essential oil is distilled from its sawdust. This gives structure to the whole composition and lends it intense woody tonalities, further reinforced by the presence of Indonesian vetiver. This herbaceous plant offers a precious scent, both woody and earthy. Overall, Scorza di Sicilia is described by its creator, Sébastien Martin, as an intense fragrance, dominated by citrus and zesty notes that will land you directly on the shores of Sicily. It reveals a journey of character, burning and steeped in sunshine, from which one would never want to leave.
