Sospiro
The fragrance brand Sospiro is relatively new. It was founded by Sergio Momo, who is also behind the unique fragrance brand Xerjoff, particularly well known in Black Africa, in places such as Senegal, Nigeria, Tunisia, Mauritius and South Africa. The idea behind the brand is to create a fragrance collection with an Italian Mediterranean background, connected to other art forms such as classical music and Italian theatrical opera. Natural ingredients and a return to nature Sergio Momo insists on using natural ingredients when producing his fragrances. According to him, these are the scents that accompanied him throughout his childhood. Indeed, he attributes his passion for special and Orientali scents to his parents, who familiarized him with different aromas. He says that both his mother and father were collectors of fragrances from around the world, which developed his fondness for different and special scents. One of his favorite childhood memories is of a female relative who used to open her "scent box," where she collected different flowers. For Sergio, who spent part of his childhood in the Alps, the scent of flowers recalls the scent of home and the scent of his lost childhood. This pursuit of scents likely caused him to abandon a successful career in design and travel to southern France, where he specialized in perfumery, his old love as mentioned. During his time in southern France, his luxury fragrance brands began to develop: Xerjoff, Sospiro and the newer brand he recently launched, Kemi. Sospiro currently has 26 leading fragrances, intended for both men and women. These are somewhat heavy Orientali scents with a significant presence. Despite being a relatively new brand, it enjoys great popularity in the market. This is likely because some of the industry's leading names stand behind its fragrances, including perfumers such as Chris Maurice and Christian Carbonnel, together with Laura Santander, a new and prominent talent in the fragrance industry. Here are some of the company's leading fragrances. Sospiro Erba Pura is an Orientali fragrance intended for women but also suitable for men. It was launched in 2013, and the perfumers who created it include the veteran Christian Carbonnel as well as Laura Santander, who is still a relatively new nose in the field. The top notes of this fragrance reveal Orange, Lemon and Bergamot. Its heart notes consist of more Peiruti scents, while the base leaves amber, white musk and Madagascar Vanil on the skin. This is a long-lasting fragrance, and anyone who wears it will enjoy a prominent presence. It is especially suited to spring days, but can certainly be worn throughout the rest of the year as well. This is a relatively established fragrance from Sospiro, which has been on the market for less than a decade. But it is certainly one of the fragrances most strongly associated with it. Sospiro Opera As mentioned, Sergio Momo turned to the worlds of music and theatrical opera. So what could be more fitting than naming one of his newest fragrances Opera? This name was given to a Pirchoni Orientali fragrance designed for both men and women. The fragrance was launched in 2014, with Chris Maurice as its perfumer. Its top notes feature fruits and Turkish rose, while the heart notes are Ylang-ylang, ambergris, Or and Nutmeg, creating a connection to the East through the use of spicy scents. On the skin, however, the base notes that remain are composed of maple wood from Murginia, along with Vanil and musk. Sospiro Opera fragrance is suited to summer and spring nights. It remains on the skin for an especially long time, and those who wear it say that it has an immense presence, one that cannot be ignored under any circumstances.
