Erba Pura

To inhale the scent of Erba Pura is to wander the narrow streets of a Mediterranean old town at golden hour, the sun intermittently kissing your skin as you pass in and out of shadows cast by remnants of ancient civilizations. So much charm and magic around every corner, waiting to be felt. As golden hour gives way to sunset and dusk turns to nightfall, Erba Pura remains, exuding a blissful serenity that lingers 'til the end. Opening with top notes of Sicilian orange and Calabrian bergamot, Erba Pura has an undeniably Mediterranean feel. More fruity notes from the region lie at its heart, strengthening its character.

Perfumer(s): Christian Carbonnel (Chris Maurice) & Laura Santander

Notes: lemon, bergamot, orange, Mediterranean fruit, amber, vanilla bean, white musk

Longevity and layering

Did you know that fragrance longevity can be greatly increased by beginning your routine with clean, moisturized skin? We recommend starting with a shower gel or soap that is either neutrally scented or in the same scent family as your perfume. Then, add a moisturizer and/or body oil and allow it to soak in. Finally, add your fragrance on top. This added moisture barrier will hold the scent molecules for more time, allowing the fragrance to last longer. Think of it as a primer for perfume!

You can also layer scented products (including lotion, soap, body oil, perfume oil, and other alcohol-based perfumes) to add depth, intensity, or a variety of other facets to your final fragrance. We suggest beginning with similar scents (such as two different citrus or vanilla fragrances) and testing those layering combinations, then branching out to more experimental pairings. Feeling stuck? Shared notes, even in very different fragrances, can help bring the final scent together. The sky's the limit - have fun!
