Adux

Adux by V Canto, a perfume for men and women

This creation is inspired by the great personality of the Italian artist Agostino di Duccio, also known by the nickname Adux due to his strong personality. He was a brilliant and talented student of Donatello. Over his career he created many works, including the bas-relief decorations of the Tempio Malatestiano, commissioned directly by Sigismondo di Malatesta.

Adux was a complex man and artist, elegant in character yet strong and determined, with innovative ideas that were still respectful of classical harmonies, just like the fragrance that captures his emblem, elegance and innovation. In his works we above all appreciate the elegance and weightlessness of the materials, suspended precisely from earthly gravity, raising sculpture to an ethereal world, as is also perceived in this creation from the very first breath.

The perfume opens with a graceful burst of citrus, where the Bergamot of Reggio Calabria resonates commandingly, embraced masterfully by the Grapefruit of Sicily and the Orange of Brazil, in acrobatic balance with the Apple of the Italian Dolomites. The heart wraps the bubbling head and draws it toward the powerful base. We perceive a strong, wild scent of Italian grass and pineapple from Costa Rica, counterpointed by the spice of Indian Cardamom and the aphrodisiac Patchouli of Singapore. The base of the creation rests its pillars on the persuasive notes of ambergris and Tuscan oakmoss, emphasized by Italian birch and musk that amplify its reverberation, enhanced by the elegant strength of Cambodian Oudh.

Adux is an elegant, suspended fragrance for those who love to defy the convention of tradition, exploring new harmonies and acrobatic balances of seduction.
