An olfactory
The fragrance opens unexpectedly and majestically. Instead of a purely citrus explosion, tangerine and bergamot are veiled by the sustain and almost totalishishing of red thyme, cilantro and rosemary. It is a herbaceous, dry and textured outlet that evokes the old medicinal gardens sheltered behind the walls of a monastery.
As the herbs settle, the heart reveals the jewel of the crown: the iris. Stripped of its classic cosmetic sweetness, here is bundled, earthy, earthy, interlaced with the aromatic cleaning of lavender and spicy touch of black pepper. The Neroli and Petitgrain diminishly illuminate this mixture, creating a transition that is pure High Italian seam.
Drying is the indisputable seal of solemnity. The sacred incense takes control, providing a smoky and spiritual aura, masterfully wrapped by the creaminess of sandalwood and the firm structure of the cedar. A subtle touch of amber and vanilla rounds the smoked edges, achieving a hypnotic, meditative and absolutely serene luxury.

The 1681 number is not a coincidence; marks the year in which the prior of the monastery of the Capri Cartuja, based on the botanical knowledge of the monks, laid the foundations of what ever would be Carthusia. This fragrance pays homage to the austere monastic and military environments of the time, capturing the smell of old scrolls, closed gardens and sacred smoke from ceremonies.
The protagonist notes
The Cilantro and the Rosemary orchestrate a herbaceous and earthy exit, providing an immensely fascinating "ancient" bootica dimension.
The Iris and the Lavender they dominate the heart with a texture of aristocratic toilet dust, raising the fragrance with an overwhelming classic elegance.
The Incense and the Sandalwood they seal the experience with a smoked, mystical and creamy closure that gives the composition of its characteristic magnetism.
The vision of Carthusia
With 1681, Carthusia he decided to look at his own past. Instead of offering a portrait of the sea or sunny cliffs, the house captured the dark, fresh and silent interior of the Cartuja itself.

Expert tips: the art of perfumer
The "Blooming" of the incense: Smoked notes and sandalwood are released with majesty in contact with body heat, especially in cold environments. During the winter, apply 1681 at the pulse points sheltered by your clothes (like the inside of the chest or the elbows fold). When removing the outer garments, it will only release a burst of incense and iris dust spectacularly intoxicating.
Fixation in noble tissues: The affinity of this fragrance with classical tailoring is insurmountable. Vaporize a leverage mist in the inner lining of a suit, a cold wool or a raincoat will ensure that the most dry, herbal and male facet of the composition lasts intact for a whole week, projecting a luxury unwavering.
Layering opposite: 1681 has a peso and an enviable opacity. If on spring nights you want to lighten your earthy gravity a little, superimpose this fragrance with a perfume of pure lavender or from dominant bergamot. The extra citrus will cut the density of the incense, revealing a much more luminous and ethereal version of the Italian iris.

Cómo siempre envío perfecto y trato excepcional
Fui a buscar un regalo y me ayudaron bastante a elegir. Tienen muchas opciones y al final encontré algo que encajaba justo con lo que buscaba.
Qué barbaridad, qué perfumería, qué trato. Me desplacé de otra ciudad porque en la mía no hay perfumerías más allá de las típicas cadenas comerciales. El trato ha sido espectacular. Sin duda repetiré. Estuve mas de una hora probando perfumes de todo tipo, tienen gamas inimaginables, es bárbara la colección que hay allí. Super amables y cercanas. Hacía tiempo que no me trataban tan bien en un comercio. Si te gustan los perfumes, esto es la meca de todos los negocios.
