The 6th talisman (besides Le Mat, Sogno Reale, Osang, Sirio and Nettuno) in the form of a perfume formula.
It's a story of a rose bush coming back to life after the gardener planted some mint around it. The aromas of both plants are mixing in a happy harmony both in the story and in the formula. Talento is a fresh, iridescent rose as well as a talisman potion about the healing power of companionship.
Special note on the bottle presentation.
The raku ceramic cap has been made as an abstraction of rose by Alessandro Reggioli, the Tuscan Artist, who has created all of the Talismans Collection adornments. From the neck flows a soft napolitan tapestry tassel. The originally designed jewel case is in striking black and silver. It will protect and keep your TALENTO safe.

Lacura by Mendittorosa £200.00
- Key notes:
- bigarade
- neroli
- orange blossom
- petitgrain
- Aromagroups:
- citrusy
- green
- woody
Lacura, the name of this perfume extrait sounds a bit like Latin or some magic language for "protection or cure".
It’s an uplifting nectarous woody citrus formula that has the complete set of wonderful perfume materials from the bitter orange tree: bigarade oil from the fruit, neroli and orange blossom absolute from the bloom and the fresh woody petigrain from leaves and twigs. That citrus and fresh woody plenty is layered with voluminous modern musks (velvety Velutone), gleaming vanilla, caramel and benzoin.
In the times when most people still believed in the magic of scent, orange blossom was considered to be a symbol/good charm for marital harmony and bliss (and often it’s still part of brides’ bouquets) and also an aphrodisiac.
Mendittorosa still believe in perfume magic crafting their blends in the old town of Napoli and Lacura is their recipe for lifting moods and happy dreams.
Mandarino di Sicilia by Perris Monte Carlo £160.00
- Key notes:
- bigarade
- mandarin
- orange blossom
- petitgrain
- Aromagroups:
- citrusy
- green
A green citrus perfume in which the delicious juicy aroma of ripe mandarins is mixed with the dry greenness of petitgrain, soft musky geranium, and crisp cedarwood.
As always, Perris go for the best materials they can source from around the world. Mandarins in this perfume come from southern Italy, with nuances supplied by green and yellow mandarins harvested in different seasons.
The green fruit extract has a delicate fleeting aroma, which rolls into a more confident sweet blend of ripe mandarins. The amber note in the base merges the two into a happy zesty perfume.
Neroli Mediterraneo by Perris Monte Carlo £160.00
- Key notes:
- bigarade
- neroli
- petitgrain
- Aromagroups:
- citrusy
- green
Neroli is an essential oil produced by steam distillation from the flower of the bitter orange tree, also known as Monsieur Le Bigaradier.
The essence of neroli in this perfume has been carefully sourced by Perris in the sunny Calabrian coast from traditional producers. It’s top quality and has a fresh, slightly bitter, floral character with aromatic nuances.
As if kissed by the sun, caressed by the wind, nourished by the earth and quenched by the sea, Neroli Mediterraneo reveals all the sumptuous citrus and flowery nuances of the Italian neroli made even more sparkling with the help of orange blossom and petitgrain. A touch of Timur pepper and ginger make it even more upbeat.

Chapter 2, ORLO is inspired by Edge, a poem by Sylvia Plath.
The perfume is behaving like magic fiery serpent breathing intoxicating incense fumes and sending sweet citrus zest sparks as it progresses through a fantastic fragrant dimension.

- cannabis
- cumin
- damp earth accord
- leather
- mandarin
- petrichor
- vetiver
- Aromagroups:
- spicy
- woody
Intoxicating aromas of exotic greenery infuse the ancient Indian forest. Yet a snake on the trail of its next meal can isolate the scent of a plump rat. But a flick of its slithering tail betrays the snake, sending the rodent darting away. Thwarted, the snake curls back upon itself, only to feel the cool touch of a menacing shadow of a towering King Cobra witnessing its failure. Now the predator becomes prey and there’s no escape. Intent on a breakfast devoured whole and without mercy, the hooded king strikes. Fangs sink deep, their venom coursing through the body of the snake. Instantly paralyzing heart and lungs, the toxins set to work dissolving the flesh from the inside out.
King Cobra from Zoologist is driven by danger and a desire to dominate. It hypnotizes with camphorous notes of Ganja and petitgrain, radiating coils of aromatic spices and damp mossy soil around a body heavy with incense. Finally, after shedding a delicate green leather, the powerful king ascends to his throne. A coronation of scent, King Cobra gives you license to rule.
