Rosa Nigra

ROSA NIGRA by Filippo Sorcinelli, introduced in 2015, offers a floral interpretation shaped by contrast—sheer yet deep, delicate yet enveloping. This unisex Eau de Parfum builds its identity through carefully balanced oppositions, moving across aromatic, fruity, woody and sensual nuances while maintaining a beautifully coherent presence from start to finish.

The opening brings together artemisia and anise, creating a vivid, lightly spiced introduction with an intriguing aromatic edge. There is brightness here, but also a sense of shadow, giving the fragrance an immediate individuality. Rather than presenting florals in a straightforward way, ROSA NIGRA sets the scene through tension and atmosphere, allowing the composition to feel layered from the very first moment.

At the heart, peach adds a soft, velvety roundness, while sandalwood lends creaminess and quiet structure. Freesia introduces a more luminous floral touch, airy and refined, bringing balance to the richer facets around it. This central phase feels smooth and composed, where fruit, wood and floral tones meet in a way that is polished, modern and understated.

The base rests on musk, cashmere wood, amber and vanilla. Here, the fragrance settles into something warmer and more intimate, with a supple texture that lingers in memory. Musk creates softness and closeness; cashmere wood extends the impression of refinement; amber adds a gentle glow; and vanilla completes the composition with a controlled sweetness that never overwhelms the structure.

ROSA NIGRA is designed for those who appreciate floral perfumery with personality—something expressive, artistic and far from predictable. Its unisex character and nuanced construction make it a distinctive choice for anyone drawn to a scent that feels elegant, textural and quietly evocative, presented here in a 100 ml format.
