Paradiso Perduto – IL COLORE DEL VENTO

“A certain amount of opposition is a great help to a man. Kites rise against not with the wind.”

Goethe

“Il Colore del Vento”(=The color of the wind”) is a fragrance dedicated to those who color the sky against the wind with the same obstinacy as kites,but it is also an invitation to let yourself be carried away, to take your feet off the ground and to give value to the string that keeps our flight stable: those (rare) people whose running allows us to have the right moment to take flight.

A kite can fly, but we are the ones who make it fly, keeping its unstable balance to ensure that its thread does not break with the risk of losing it: we entrust it to the wind but without letting it go, almost as if we wanted to fly away into other worlds , escaping from reality but then perhaps coming back to it with a different perspective on life itself.

Don’t be afraid: having a headwind only scares those who areafraid of flying. Be yourselves kites, color the sky and the wind, the clouds and, above all, your life.

The notes are deliberately designed to awaken our inner child—maybe dormant, but unlike an adult, one who leaps, dares, and challenges the headwind, even with a touch of recklessness, to soar with the mind and paint the sky. The spicy top notes symbolize that headwind which may frighten us but also pushes us upward. At the heart, the notes of champagne and coffee belong to the adult world, made sweeter by the warmth of vanilla, caramel, and butter.

The nose: Maria Celeste Lombardo

“Whoever dares to return to being a child wins, because childhood is our essence and is certainly the purest and most authentic part of us, a place of amazement, magic and freedom. “Il colore del vento” is a journey that challenges time and calls us to return to the “source”: where the child, innocent and curious part of us reminds us of the importance of cultivating dreams that always feed on courage and madness to be chased. A tale of notes narrated by a kite dancing against the wind, bringing with it the scent, lightness and carefreeness of childhood, but with an “adult” awareness. It is therefore a hymn to the freedom to dream again. In particular, the Champagne note, which we find sparkling, is an invitation to remember the laughter, the forgotten games and the cotton candy dissolves the boundaries of rationality.”
