Lorenzo this time, steps out of his comfort-zone, that of fruity, big-appeal pleasures, expressing joy and smiles.
He steps into darker territory and does so with his usual approach, on tiptoe, experimenting with something new but no less captivating.
Of course, Lorenzo’s sunny disposition could not be missed and so, Incenso Notturno, opening, is not so nocturnal.
Citrus fruits, juxtaposed with elemi resin, also with a citrus undertone, dusted with a hint of black pepper, bring out an immediately incensed but initially bright character.
The evolution is slow, and from light comes night, through woody, earthy and, of course, incensed accords.
It becomes nocturnal and mysterious, with an earthy, peppery character, like a winter night walk, in a cold medieval town.
The cold, damp interior of a now empty church, where the smell of the wood of the pews and confessionals, mingles with that of burning candles and incense. The cold, damp walls release their characteristic odor.
The warm balsamic part is perfectly balanced by the moist, earthy part of patchouli, and the result is striking and damn gothic
