Moresque

MORESQUE is a relatively new brand, established in 2015. It brings together Italian design, refinement and taste with the captivating art of Arabian and Middle Eastern perfumery. The brand is a masterpiece born of research and creativity, inspired by the Moorish dynasties that reached Europe. Its fragrances are signed by Andrea (T'ru) Casotti. His work has resulted in five perfume collections that reflect a perfect balance of sophistication and luxury, taking the senses on a faraway journey. Most of the brand's fragrances are unisex. The White Collection is full of charm and magic, and offers a passionate dialogue between nose and heart. This sophisticated collection speaks of rare emotions, stirs memories and brings unconscious desires to life. It includes three fragrances, each inspired by a different place. The MORESQUE fragrance Diadema takes its name from the term "diadem," a symbol of the sovereignty and nobility of the East. It is a rich, sweet, Caramel scent that some describe as a sort of sweet salt ball. Its fragrance is adorned with Peiruti notes of cherries, Bergamot and Orange, with a delicate Pirchoni touch of Vered and Jasmine at its heart. Tima, on the other hand, was inspired by the poet and princess Tima, wife of Sultan Almoravid Ali ibn Yusuf of Morocco. This more Pirchoni, Atzi fragrance combines orange blossoms with the aromas of eucalyptus and amber, all rounded off with Bourbon Vanil. It conveys audacity, confidence and a drive to succeed. The final fragrance in this collection is Morta. The Spanish have a word for a stunning, attractive woman, brimming with feminine charm and knowing how to command attention: they call her "Morta." This fragrance is similarly teasing at first, with gentle, restrained Peiruti notes, but later reveals a blooming heart featuring the lavish Caribbean scents of ylang-ylang. Finally, it reaches its earthy, sensual notes, led by the warm scent of Virginia Cedar, with white musk and Patchouli. This is an impressive fragrance with freshness and charisma. The Black Collection by MORESQUE opens with Emiro, a tribute to the scents of emirs, kings and commanders. This complex fragrance blends elegant, light Peiruti scents, taking the wearer to a rich floral garden dominated by Pantelleria granite. At its heart, it is enriched with the scent of spicy, captivating leather and warm amber. The fragrance evokes floral Or, rounded off with exotic Patchouli scents from Indonesia. The second fragrance in the Black Collection, Al Andalus, is named after one of the Moors' ancient cultural regions. It is a fiery, seductive fragrance that evokes Andalusia's lively temperament and blazing sun. This oriental fragrance opens with spicy, joyful, vibrant notes that awaken like the first rays of sunlight. A trio of spices stimulates and ignites the senses: Saffron, Black pepper and Ginger. The third fragrance in the collection is called Rand, and pays tribute to the "desert flower," a delicate yet determined flower, strong enough to grow, endure and survive in the most challenging environment where it blooms. Rand stands proud and fights for its beliefs without compromising its true nature. A treasure that allows itself to be found where least expected. This Pirchoni-oriental fragrance is grounded in powdery iris from Florence, while its uniqueness and spontaneity come through in Peiruti notes and pink flowers. Finally, its base notes are strong, steady and rich Indonesian sandalwood. The Art Collection brings together one-of-a-kind creations that reflect the virtuosity of Italian artists.
