Filippo Sorcinelli Memento BASILICA DI ASSISI Extrait de Parfum

A Breath of Spring over Sacred Walls

BASILICA DI ASSISI is an extrait de parfum that draws You into the silent, reverent aura of the Basilica of Saint Francis – where the spring wind brushes through olive groves and grazes ancient walls adorned with frescoes by Giotto and Cimabue. The air, steeped in devotion and light, blends with the patina of centuries – a fragrance like a whispered prayer on Your skin.

Here, amidst the gentle hills of Umbria, the world seems to pause. The basilica rises like a stone-borne poem, layered in two sacred levels, deeply rooted in faith and art. The subtle scent of wooden sacristy drawers, the herbal clarity of cloistered gardens, the balsamic breath of age-old resins – all this has been distilled by Filippo Sorcinelli into a composition that transcends time.

Between Light and Silence – a Sacred Fragrance Portrait

BASILICA DI ASSISI opens with a luminous accord of lemon, bergamot and petitgrain – like rays of sunlight streaming through Gothic windows. Incense unfolds gently, spiritual and radiant, as if linking heaven and earth. In the heart note, the floral purity of rosa alba emerges – delicate and white – surrounded by dried fruits, earthy patchouli and resinous labdanum, echoing the symbolic scent language of the Middle Ages.

In the base, tonka bean, benzoin, styrax and amber blend into a warm, glowing tapestry. Benzoin offers its vanilla-like richness, while styrax adds a sweet, balsamic depth. Together, they create a sacred warmth – an embrace that lingers like the final hymn after mass. It feels as though a holy wind were sweeping through centuries – carrying resin, hope and grace.

Sacred Scent for the Soul

BASILICA DI ASSISI is more than a luxurious niche fragrance – it is a scented meditation, an olfactory echo of faith as it lives on in stone, colour and silence. For those who seek not only beauty but presence in perfume, who long to feel the sacred whisper of Assisi through the art of scent.
