Ithaka by Mendittorosa, eau de parfum

The story of Ithaka

Ithaka is an eau de parfum from the Odori d'Anima collection, composed by perfumer Camille Chemardin from an olfactory vision by Stefania Squeglia. The first instalment of the Versi trilogy, it responds to Constantine Cavafy's poem “Ithaka”, published in 1911, which makes the journey itself the true destination.

The top rests on bergamot. The heart pairs an aqueous magnolia with incense. The base brings together patchouli, labdanum, incense resinoid, Virginia cedar, cypriol and benzoin, for a resinous, amber and subtly saline trail.
