Linari Porta del Cielo ~ new fragrance

Posted by Robin on 21 September 2012 8 Comments

Linari, bottle, top view

Linari has launched Porta del Cielo:

A celestial interaction of opulent fruity notes of sun-ripened Calabrian bergamot, juicy pineapple and crispy raspberry merge with floral accords of delicate freesia and aromatic Indian davana oil.

Gentle aspects of Australian sandalwood and finest cashmere wood surround the captivating floral heart note of lily of the valley, vibrant violet and Tunisian orange blossom.

The distinctive powdery base notes of white musk, vanilla and enchanting Venezuelan tonka are flattered by accords of exquisite Siamese benzoin resin and Andalusian labdanum.

Porta del Cielo was developed by perfumer Mark Buxton.

Linari Porta del Cielo is available now at First in Fragrance in Germany, €145 for 100 ml Eau de Parfum.

    You can’ use “celestial interaction” and “opulent” in the same sentence as “fruity” in the same sentence. It is against the law.
    Mark Buxton is becoming the James Patterson of fragrance.
    Slow down!

    It looks like a nipple.

      That’s the top of the bottle, w/o the cap on.

    It’s a beautiful name…If I am not mistaken “Porta del Cielo” means “Door to Heaven.” Reminds me of a luxury resort I would love to visit…”Ventanas al Paraiso” – Windows into Paradise…
