Meo Fusciuni – 1# Nota di Viaggio (Rites de Passage) – Parfum

1# Nota di Viaggio (Rites de Passage) is a fragrance with an emblematic personality: aromatic, spicy, mysterious. A niche perfume that does not soothe but opens. It evokes a dreamlike, liberated state of mind—a personality without limits, without fixed coordinates. In this perfume, the human being becomes both the traveler and the destination. The fragrance turns into a vehicle to traverse time, memory, and identity.

Journey as an inner ritual

This fragrance narrates the dialogue between humanity and its nomadic origins. Meo Fusciuni understands perfume here as a rite of passage: a moment when the familiar dissolves and space for transformation emerges. 1# Nota di Viaggio is not a linear narrative but a movement—searching, tentative, in constant evolution. A unisex perfume that does not explain itself, but challenges.

Istanbul – origin and threshold

Everything began in Istanbul. Amid the chaotic voices of the Grand Bazaar, in the dense scents of spices, resins, and fabrics, this fragrance was born. Everyone experiences a rite of passage in life—for Meo Fusciuni, it was this journey. 1# Nota di Viaggio (Rites de Passage) is his tribute to nomads, to restless souls, to elusive spirits that never stand still.

Spice, dust, and memory

The opening is warm and intense: pink pepper, Sichuan pepper, cinnamon, and saffron ignite the composition with vibrant sharpness. Bergamot and grapefruit cast fleeting flashes of light before the scent dives deeper into the spice stalls of Constantinople—raw, dusty, alive. This first phase celebrates the city as the gateway to the East.

At the heart, a slow metamorphosis unfolds. Rose and jasmine form a warm, almost contemplative bouquet, supported by elemi and the dry, powdery nuance of Sichuan pepper. A quiet nostalgia lingers in the air—like the dust of old fabrics that have absorbed stories over time.

Depth, smoke, and spirituality

The base is dark, woody, and spiritually dense. Vetiver, patchouli, sandalwood, cedarwood, and incense intertwine with tobacco absolute, oud, vanilla, and resinous accents to create a deep, resonant foundation. The journey does not end here—it turns inward. The fragrance feels like a silent place at the end of a path, where body and mind briefly converge.

Fragrance as memory

Each note begins softly and intimately, eventually unfolding into the threefold body of the fragrance—top, heart, and base. 1# Nota di Viaggio is olfactory memory in motion. Memory that refuses to fade, that keeps moving. Memory approaching a threshold where the earthly and the spiritual meet. Memory that does not shy away from the bitter, smoky gaze of time.
