Albatros

Endless skies and ocean wind. Albatros by Mendittorosa is one of the house's most atmospheric and emotional creations: an airy, mineral marine-woody scent where ozonic sea foam meets a modern rose, pineapple, cedar and white musk. Highly conceptual, it is designed to create mood rather than simply smell pleasant. The Story Albatros is the third and final chapter of Versi, Mendittorosa's three-part study of the links between perfume and poetry. Composed in 2021 by perfumer Anne-Sophie Behaghel with concept by founder Stefania Squeglia, it is inspired by Baudelaire's 1857 poem of the same name from Les Fleurs du mal. The bird, a symbol of freedom, solitude, endurance and spiritual travel, soars in flight yet stumbles on the ground, presenting sensitivity as both elevation and vulnerability. How It Smells Opening An airy mineral freshness that evokes ocean wind and open space, with clean, foamy aquatic and ozonic-anisic notes. Heart A modern rose accord, rose absolute and pineapple add a sweet, metallic floral-fruity lift. Dry Down Soft cedar woods, Haitian vetiver and white musk, with salty nuances, incense and warm resins, creating a melancholic yet calming atmosphere.
