Gritti · 2022 · EDP
Beyond The Wall
Oriental
The curiosity to go beyond; to fetch away; to outrush. The future is spontaneous: never solid, always changing. Thrilling and breezy, happy-go-lucky. Only if you dare. A mischievous approach to the great orientals. A perfumer’s vision of a modern way to interpret the most traditional olfactive family. Luca Gritti takes the best from the Middle Eastern style, overlaying its warm, comforting mood with clear, fine structures of European perfumery: milk and cardamom, golden spicy powder and smooth, subtle iris. The future has no limits.
