The Tiziana Terenzi collection is inspired by travel, and emotion shared around a fire. Each perfume is hand crafted and includes 24-carat gold details, highest quality hand-blown Italian glass, wood inserts or caps from rare woods of Italy, and hand sewn Italian leather inserts

Graceful yet profound, this fragrance reflects the provocative presence of select wood, like ebony in which it is rooted, and is rounded with richly sweet gourmand notes. Al Contrario is a journey for those who return, they are once again ready to depart on the quest that life offers every day through its daily wonders.

Paolo loves to work only with natural raw materials, that he sources personally, and uses to imbue each fragrance with a natural and evocative spirit. Tiziana has a sophistication and love for “beautiful elegance” which she is able to express in the unsurpassed quality of each Terenzi art object. A sweet, gourmand scent with the provocative presence of woods and malt balanced by the rounded sweetness of vanilla.
