Composed by Amelie Bourgeois & Camille Chamardine
Here, the rose is not protected by a glass dome, but by a handful of ravenous mint. MENDITTOROSA Talento was born from the image of fragile roses that only bloomed when mint enveloped them and took on the role of guardian.
Mint and aldehyde C12 MNA open the extract cold, green, and radiant. The freshness is not an adornment around the flower; it has the strength of a plant that spreads without question and gives the rose a new backbone.
Amèlie Bourgeois and Camille Chemardin and Camille Chamardine use rose oxide, rose infusion, and geranium for a floral heart that is at once metallic, damp, and alive. The theme of the sixth Talisman is talent as a source that, when protected, can grow freely.
On the skin, Indonesian patchouli, oakmoss, and cedar rise from beneath the rose. The green base deepens the mint and turns the initial freshness into a more serious, foresty trail.
If you want a sweet, velvety rose or a delicate mint tea, Talento will be too cold and penetrating for you. Here, two plants do not stand side by side; they fight, protect, and grow through each other.
The abstract rose cap made of raku ceramic was sculpted by the Tuscan artist Alessandro Reggioli — a fitting finish for a fragrance in which the fragile petal is preserved precisely thanks to wild mint.
