THE PERFUME AS CONTINUATION OF PAINTING
"Oceano Viola is a fragrance born of a gesture already fulfilled: it gathers the light of paintings and amplifies the vibration of Lynch’s ocean.
Translating that vision into scent, into subtle presence, the fragrance preserves another existence with the dramatic patience of the iris: its rhizome, fleshy and horizontal, absorbs waiting and transforms it into aromatic memory. Years pass before its fragrance rises to the surface. And it is precisely this long gestation that grants it depth.
The flower fades quickly. The rhizome, instead, endures. And it sings its silent nobility.
It sings without voice, yet with the timbre of contemplative beauty.
In liturgical time, iris accompanies the act of recollection. In sacred chambers, its burnt rhizomes purify air and thought.
In the Middle Ages, it was kept beside altars as an aromatic bridge between earth and sky. Within its aroma coexist chastity and fire, purity and desire, discipline and vision.
Art has captured its luminous contradictions: in Japanese gardens, iris suggests balance and grace; in Van Gogh’s paintings, it becomes desperate and glorious gesture, blooming in a field of questions.
Iris offers a depth that both heals and unsettles. It leads toward places where interiority may germinate—without haste, without clamor—with all the strength of what rises after having long been hidden.
THE SYMBOLISM OF THE BOTTLE
The monolithic bottle recalls the weave of canvas with its torn sheet. Painting becomes surface. Violet becomes skin. The sea becomes breath.
The message caught in the safety pin is carved upon the cap, resting as a living relic, evoking instability, provisional closure, a wound held together by makeshift means, an ambiguous protection. Everything is precarious, doubled, poorly stitched. Things appear still, yet tremble in their tears. Worlds seem united, yet a tremor reveals the abyss with the artisanal manuality of pain—as if the human psyche were a frayed garment, held together by a gesture of urgency.
This perfume lives in the continuity of a single intuition: that every violet sea leads to truth, that every inclined rectangle opens a passage, that every life is sacred and walks the edge between two worlds without losing its center.
Every brushstroke is a wound seeking the light. It transfigures what it touches. It illuminates what it grazes. It elevates what it embraces, even through violence.
Every note speaks the language of the invisible. With iris, the skin is clothed in mystery, in that form of contemplative beauty that refuses to shout, seducing through silent wound, inviting toward the threshold of the absolute."- Filippo Sorcinelli
