Spiritica Leonarda Extrait

Description

Spiritica Leonarda Extrait is a dark, provocative release from the house's 2024 Crime Collection, created by Daniele Muratori Caputo and Paolo Cerizza. It is a conceptual portrait inspired by Leonarda Cianciulli, the Italian serial killer known for making soap and biscuits. The scent plays that unsettling story straight: a clean, squeaky soap and blood orange opening with a caustic peppery edge, then a heart of raspberry, whipped cream and cookie with a metallic, bloody twist, drying down to oud, sulfur, dark chocolate and ambergris. It is unusual, deliberate and not for everyone.

Performance

Reviewers report very strong longevity, with some wearers getting 12 hours or more, and a powerful, dense projection. Because it is so concentrated and characterful, one or two sprays is a good starting point.

FAQ

Is Leonarda a normal gourmand?
No. The cookie and cream are real, but soap, pepper, metallic notes and sulfur make it deliberately strange.

Does it smell like soap?
The opening does, in a sharp, squeaky-clean way, before the sweeter gourmand heart appears.

Is it strong?
Yes, it is a high-projection, long-lasting extrait.
