A dry, herbal-citrus fragrance rooted in mythology and mineral earth — crisp, sun-beaten, and windswept like the volcanic coasts of Panarea.
LITVS CAERVLEVM is a tribute to stillness and wilderness. Inspired by the ancient Mediterranean ritual of stilling the spirit through scent, this fragrance evokes open landscapes, wild shrubs, and salt-stung wind. Through a two-month maceration, its notes emerge slowly and with intent — grounding, cleansing, and quietly radiant.

• Scent Profile:
It opens with the sharp, bracing clarity of cedrat, sage, and juniper berries, capturing the moment just before sunrise over sea-carved cliffs. The heart is where wild myrtle, myrrh, and lavender swirl together — raw, resinous, and green. As it settles, the drydown becomes darker and more ancient: patchouli, labdanum, and lentisque resin anchor the scent in warmth and sacred earth.
• Key Ingredient:
Myrtle — a sacred plant in Mediterranean tradition — imparts a unique bittersweet aroma: part green spice, part dry fruit. Its duality brings balance to the freshness and depth.
• Sensory Experience:
Imagine walking barefoot across black volcanic rock under morning light. There's a meditative quality to it — it doesn't try to impress, it simply unfolds. Dry herbal tones and resinous balsams come alive on skin, feeling ritualistic and elemental.
• Skin Chemistry Dependent:
The brighter top notes linger longer on warm skin, while cooler skin brings out the incense-like quality of the myrrh and labdanum.
• Emotional Tone:
This is a scent for solitude, for focus, for clearing the mind. Unapologetically earthy and intellectual, it grounds the wearer in silence and power.
• Versatility:
Perfect for early spring, transitional fall, or Mediterranean winters. Best worn when you're seeking clarity, stillness, or a return to something older than words.
