When glamour becomes a warning.
Candlelit mirrors and moments beauty becomes dangerous to underestimate.
A dark floral signature: poised, poisonous, and beautifully controlled.
Venetian Belladona eau de parfum is the candlelit seduction of a Renaissance courtesan who knew that beauty was a weapon — and wielded it. Blackcurrant and violet water bloom into cognac-drenched jasmine sambac and honeyed iris, before settling into suede, saffron, and beeswax: the soft creak of gloves, the flicker of flame, the weight of a glance that lingers too long.
"The opening is very fruity (plum) with a soft boozy quality (cognac). It's not girly-fruity, the boozyness suggests something darker lurking underneath making Venetian Belladonna feel slightly mature, not necessarily age-wise, but in an experienced kind-of-way. This is a scent with a lot of tricks up its sleeve. It feels like it has an agenda, it knows what it's doing."
— Tawalili
Belladonna was considered a “woman’s poison” as the wives of Roman emperors Augustus and Claudius used it to murder their husbands but it had glamorous and ritualistic applications too: In Medieval high-society, women would drop Belladonna into their eyes drops in order to dilate their pupils, seen as a cosmetically desirable and sensuous at the time. Doing so would also induce ferocious psychedelic mind-trips, which inspired tales of midnight witches sabbaths, where Belladonna was used to place seduction spells on unsuspecting men.
"Inspired by midnight ritual, Venetian Belladona eau de parfum is luscious seduction in three acts, each burning hotter and hotter in passionate flame."
