Behind the Fragrance
Carthusia Intenso di Mirto Eau de Parfum
The Wild Soul of the Mediterranean
Carthusia Intenso di Mirto is a bold tribute to myrtle, an iconic plant of the Mediterranean renowned for its aromatic freshness and symbolic significance. This fragrance masterfully blends the crisp intensity of myrtle with earthy and woody notes, creating a captivating and natural composition.
The top notes open with a revitalizing fusion of green myrtle, juniper berries, and citrus fruits, evoking the rugged coastlines of Capri.
At its heart, the fragrance is dominated by aromatic myrtle—herbaceous, slightly balsamic, and deeply invigorating—enhanced by rosemary and lavender, which add complexity and a refined herbal nuance.
The base notes provide a warm, long-lasting foundation, where cedarwood, amber, and musk create a powerful yet elegant signature.

The Story Behind Carthusia
Carthusia is one of the world’s oldest niche fragrance houses, deeply rooted in the history of Capri, Italy. The brand traces its origins back to 1380, when the Prior of the Certosa di San Giacomo Monastery gathered the most fragrant flowers of Capri to honor the Queen of Naples.

Today, Carthusia continues this centuries-old tradition, crafting fragrances entirely by hand, using only the finest natural ingredients. The result is a collection of exclusive niche perfumes that reflect the brand’s commitment to artisanal excellence and authenticity.
