A caressing sandalwood perfume adorned with tonka beans dust, earthy angelica root and a fluffy orris tail.
In support of the Leaping Bunny and LAV organizations working to eliminate animal cruelty in the beauty products production.
Please note, there are several lid designs and you will get a surprise creature which might look different from the one in the photo.
The Sniff on Daymon:
“A cosy sense of safety and comfort is imparted from the base of the fragrance, from the sandalwood and tonka bean elements, and the scent lowers to a purr on the skin after a couple of hours.” Read the full review.
All about this fragrance
Vibe check
Daymon suits the quiet closeness of an evening spent reading beside someone, with conversation coming in pauses rather than filling the room. Earthy angelica keeps its powdery softness grounded, while sandalwood and tonka lend a tactile warmth that feels affectionate rather than demonstrative.
How to wear
Its sandalwood and tonka warmth makes Daymon a natural choice for mild to cool weather. Start with one or two sprays on the upper chest or forearms for a restrained presence. Allow the opening to settle: the fragrance softens toward a skin-close, comforting warmth after a couple of hours.
Who it’s for
For those drawn to creamy woods, powdery iris and restrained sweetness rather than bright freshness or overtly sugary gourmands. Daymon will appeal especially to wearers who enjoy an earthy edge within a soft composition and prefer sensuality expressed through texture and closeness.

The nose
Luca Maffei is an Italian perfumer and co-founder of Atelier Fragranze Milano, whose work spans independent fragrance houses and established brands. His compositions often balance clear structure with richly textured materials. In Daymon, sandalwood, orris and tonka bean give that approach a particularly tender expression, grounded by earthy angelica root.
Collaborators
Tuscan artist Alessandro Reggioli created the handmade ceramic creature cap, giving Daymon's imagined companion a physical form. Neapolitan artist 38Verde made the wool-and-silk tail that completes the bottle's animal-like presentation.
Mendittorosa’s story
Mendittorosa treats fragrance and its presentation as a single artwork, bringing perfumers and artisans together around personal, emotionally charged ideas. The independent house rejects trend-led creation and standardized design. Its commitment to animal welfare is especially visible in Daymon, supported by the brand's cruelty-free certification and support for animal shelters and research without animal testing.
Daymon’s concept
Daymon was conceived as a benevolent, animal-like companion: a quiet presence expressing affection without words. The fragrance translates that bond into caressing woods, soft iris and tonka warmth. Its launch also carried an explicit animal-protection message, connecting the idea of companionship with opposition to exploitation and animal testing.
Extra info
Daymon was introduced as Mendittorosa's first "outsider": a fragrance deliberately assigned to no collection. Its handmade creature caps come in different designs, so the bottle received may differ from the photograph. The fragrance ingredients are vegan, but the presentation is not, because its decorative tail contains wool.
