{"product_id":"amara-vita","title":"Amara Vita – Gourmand Leather Fragrance","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAmara Vita by Meo Fusciuni\u003c\/strong\u003e is a gourmand, leathery, woody fragrance, unisex, created by \u003cstrong\u003eGiuseppe Imprezzabile\u003c\/strong\u003e. A dark cacao, present throughout the composition, always suspended between bitter and sweet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eAn ethnobotanist turned perfumer\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBefore composing, Giuseppe Imprezzabile spent years cataloging the medicinal properties of plants and ran an herbalist shop in his hometown in Sicily. He prefers the old title of \u003cstrong\u003earomatario\u003c\/strong\u003e, one who possesses the knowledge of plants. “Meo” is the diminutive of his father’s first name, Bartolomeo; “Fusciuni” is his grandfather’s nickname, which means \u003cstrong\u003eto flow\u003c\/strong\u003e in Sicilian. For him, a fragrance does not begin in the laboratory but with a poem, a journey, or a revelation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eAn opening of cacao, raspberry, and blood orange\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCacao absolute\u003c\/strong\u003e is there from the very first second, dark and slightly bitter. \u003cstrong\u003eRaspberry\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eblood orange\u003c\/strong\u003e, which the house describes as candied, wrap it in warm fruit; \u003cstrong\u003ebergamot\u003c\/strong\u003e brightens the whole, and \u003cstrong\u003ecoffee\u003c\/strong\u003e extends its roasted bitterness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eA heart of iris, sandalwood, and tonka bean\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe cacao does not disappear; it changes company. \u003cstrong\u003eIris\u003c\/strong\u003e brings it a powdery texture, \u003cstrong\u003esandalwood\u003c\/strong\u003e a creamy roundness, \u003cstrong\u003etonka bean absolute\u003c\/strong\u003e its warm almond. It is at this moment that the chocolate cake takes shape.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eA base of vanilla, leather, and oud\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe base is the richest part of the formula: \u003cstrong\u003evanilla absolute\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003epatchouli\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003ebenzoin\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eBourbon vetiver\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003emusk\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eamber\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eleather\u003c\/strong\u003e, and \u003cstrong\u003eoud\u003c\/strong\u003e. Leather, which the house gives as a facet of the fragrance, darkens the sweetness; vetiver and patchouli leave it the bitter aftertaste that the name carries.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eThe house’s gesture\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAmara Vita, “bitter life” in Italian, was born from a precise memory: \u003cstrong\u003ea love story that ends\u003c\/strong\u003e, and the perfumer sitting before a slice of chocolate cake, his gaze lost. Bite after bite, he writes, the palate becomes the place of healing and the cacao envelops the pain. That is why \u003cstrong\u003ecacao\u003c\/strong\u003e does not occupy a single layer: it traverses the \u003cstrong\u003esixteen ingredients\u003c\/strong\u003e of the composition and meets raspberry, orange, iris, sandalwood, and tonka one after another. Imprezzabile sees in it the very contradiction of love: the most intense sweetness and, at the same time, its most bitter part.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFor whom, for what occasions?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor those who love gourmands without loving sweet fragrances: here the cacao is bitter, held by leather and woods. It is a fragrance of autumn and winter, of late afternoons and evenings. Amara Vita Meo Fusciuni will appeal to those seeking a dark, adult chocolate rather than a confectionery treat.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MEO FUSCIUNI","offers":[{"title":"100 ml","offer_id":59121865720072,"sku":"PROD-001366","price":220.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1009\/0315\/8024\/files\/amara-vita-parfum-100ml-meo-fusciuni.png?v=1793866813","url":"https:\/\/odorare.fr\/en\/products\/amara-vita","provider":"Odorare Parfumerie","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
