MEMENTO CHIESA D' ORO – Extrait de Parfum

Filippo Sorcinelli - MEMENTO - CHIESA D´ORO - Extrait de Parfum

Chiesa d'Oro Extrait de Parfum, is a fragrance deeply rooted in the rich history and mysterious aromas of Venice. Inspired by the drawers and compartments in the sacristy of the Basilica of San Marco in Venice, this fragrance evokes the exotic and almost oriental scents reminiscent of the precious spices that once travelled by sea to the lagoon city. Venice, a historical melting pot of trade and cultures, was once the gateway through which spices - called ‘species’ in Latin, meaning ‘special, valuable goods’ - found their way to Europe.

The city's spice merchants, who experimented with these ingredients, mixed and measured them in order to sell them in the characteristic Venetian bags. These spices, which were not only used to flavour food, but often also to make the rituals within their cathedral - a building that enchants with its gold mosaics - solemn and precious, became an indispensable part of Venice and the whole world.

Chiesa d'Oro captures the essence of this history and weaves it into a fragrance that reflects both the splendour and spiritual depth of the Basilica of San Marco. The use of spicy notes in this perfume invites you to embark on a sensual journey through time, experiencing the grandeur and richness of Venice. This fragrance is more than just a perfume; it is a tribute to the art of the spice makers, a symbol of the connection between trade, culture and spirituality in one of the most fascinating cities in the world.

Chiesa d'Oro Extrait de Parfum by Sorcinelli is therefore not only an olfactory masterpiece that awakens the senses, but also a piece of history that encapsulates the splendour and magic of Venice. It is a fragrance for those who appreciate the depth and complexity of oriental flavours and want to be enchanted by the mystical beauty and heritage of a city like no other.
