Leonarda

She killed, dismembered, and boiled three women. She used their fat to make soap, and dried their blood in the oven to turn it into cookie dough, which she served to friends with tea. She is Leonarda Cianciulli – "the Soap-maker of Correggio."

Driven by superstition and a sick maternal love, she believed that sacrificing three women could save her own children from evil forces.

LEONARDA is the first perfume in the Crime Collection. The concept was conceived by Daniele Muratori Caputo in collaboration with influencer Ariosto, while the perfume was created by Paolo Cerizza.

The opening brings clear notes of Marseille soap and a peppery accord reminiscent of caustic soda. But the background is dirty, dusty, and gourmand.

At the heart are Chantilly cream and homemade biscuits, but the surprise comes with an accord of raspberry syrup and clotted blood – sweet and metallic at the same time.

The base is monumental: opulent oud, dark chocolate, and sulfurous alchemical notes open the door to a dark dimension.

LEONARDA is a powerful, polarizing, and long-lasting extrait that blurs the line between madness and love.
