Giorgio Armani draws inspiration from the shores of Pantelleria for the fragrance in the Les Eaux collection, Cyprès Pantelleria Eau de Toilette, an ode to this fascinating Italian island of volcanic rock. Pantelleria is famous for the contrast of sparkling Mediterranean light and dark volcanic rock. It epitomises the beauty of nature in its most pristine form, as its unspoilt landscape blurs the boundaries between land and sea.
Cyprès Pantelleria Eau de Toilette evokes the essence of this island, combining the fresh scent of cypress with the spray of the sea, which is created from an invigorating breeze and distilled into an energising, fresh fragrance. This invigorating fresh fragrance combines two aspects of nature, the power of the sea and the elegant aromatic warmth of the Pantelleria flora. Soothing and invigorating at the same time, the fresh fragrance is reminiscent of the morning sea breeze catching in the cypress trees.
The fragrance opens with dazzling, zesty luminosity in a harmony of mandarin, bergamot and cedarwood, which merge with floral neroli. The heart note of the fragrance is reminiscent of a fresh sea breeze, with clary sage and resinous fresh cypress combining to create an aquatic accord. The base note conveys a sense of contrast and texture.
The intense oakmoss accord lends a mineral, woody-amber fragrance note that is reminiscent of a fresh forest breeze thanks to patchouli and vetiver. Cyprès Pantelleria is housed in the iconic Armani/Privé transparent glass bottle, topped with a black cap.
