After touring the whole world the new project Perris Monte Carlo finds the excellence of the raw materials protagonists of the new fragrances in Italy.
The Italian excellence deriving from the world of citrus fruits, the result of tradition, the savoir faire and production innovation of Capua, a manufacturer of citrus essential oils since 1880 inspired Gian Luca Perris creative director of the Maison Perris Monte Carlo.
Capua has been working with raw materials of the perfume tradition since 1880 and today it combines tradition with new extraction methods that allow the elimination of furocoumarins (photosensitive molecules that have compromised the use of these essential oils) and phthalates (deriving from collection tools) with cold fraction (up to -20°C) through molecular evaporators which guarantee an extraction of total integrity, representative of all facets of the oe without losing the most delicate parts often damaged by heat.
The triad of the new collection, dedicated to citrus fruits, expresses the power of the sun and the earth which enhances the characteristics of the fruits of which it is composed: bergamot, mandarin and citron.
Bergamot has an ancient history in the world of perfumery, it is part of the pyramid of 90% of perfumes but never the protagonist due to its volatility.
Bergamot fruits grow exclusively in the south-west of Italy, in Calabria, along the 140 km of the Ionian coast. Bergamot is a hybrid of bitter orange and lemon. There are three types of bergamot: femminiello, chestnut and fantastic.
Bergamotto di Calabria contains the precious raw material "Bergamot sponge" whose extraction is still carried out through a manual process by cutting the fruit in half and eliminating the pulp with a particular curved cutter.
Then compressing the zest on a natural sponge with a rotary movement in order to collect its essence.
The latter is the best part, more delicate and more complex than that extracted with the peeler and is characterized by fruity and flowery notes of jasmine.
A return to the origins and traditional extraction techniques has made it possible to capture the best of the excellent raw materials, enriching them with a touch of modernity to compose a bouquet that encloses the freshness of bergamot, making it persistent and energetic after a long process.
Our recommendations: A non-acidic and slightly bitter citrus scent, perfect for the modern man.
opportunity: An outdoor dinner.
