V Canto Mandragola EP

V Canto Mandragola EP is a unisex Eau de Parfum from the Italian niche house’s Red Collection, introduced in 2016. Its character draws on the enigmatic legend of Lucrezia Borgia, giving the composition an air of intrigue and sensual warmth. For anyone looking for a distinctive unisex perfume with citrus, spice and deep woody notes, Mandragola offers an expressive profile that develops in layers rather than revealing everything at once.

The first impression balances bright lime, bergamot and petitgrain with absinthe’s bittersweet aromatic edge. Saffron adds a warm, spiced contrast, setting up a transition from lively citrus to richer, more enveloping accords. As the fragrance unfolds, Bulgarian rose and jasmine bring a floral dimension, while musk, guaiac wood and oud deepen the heart with woody, smoky and softly aromatic nuances. The result is a meeting of vivid freshness and shadowy warmth, with neither side losing its presence.

Amber, sandalwood, vetiver and vanilla shape the closing impression. Their combination lends the scent a smooth, rounded quality, with a warm finish that remains on the skin. This is an amber woody fragrance with floral detail: rose and jasmine add richness, oud and guaiac bring depth, and vanilla softens the darker facets. The contrast between citrus, absinthe and saffron at the opening and the woods and amber later on gives Mandragola its distinctive, memorable character.

• A layered unisex scent balancing citrus, aromatic bitterness, spice, florals and woods.
• Bulgarian rose, jasmine and oud add richness, while amber, sandalwood, vetiver and vanilla create a warm finish.
• Well suited to evenings and special occasions, or to a fragrance wardrobe built around expressive compositions.

V Canto Mandragola EP is a considered option when you want a scent that feels mysterious, warm and confidently individual. Its depth makes it especially appealing for cooler days and intimate evenings, while its unisex character leaves room for personal interpretation. If you would like to experience how the composition develops before choosing a larger amount, select from the available 1 ml, 2 ml, 3 ml, 5 ml or 10 ml options. Apply to pulse points and let the citrus, spice, flowers and woods unfold at their own pace.
