The Story
Why it exists.
The beginning
Ventuno is a 2026 Eau de Parfum from Italian grooming name Eredi Zucca. Its stated direction is sophisticated and fresh: Italian citrus, green tea, and light woods interwoven in an elegant trail. The composition places clementine, Italian bergamot Orpur®, Italian lemon, and green tea at the opening, then moves through magnolia, Mahonial®, pink pepper CO2, and white flowers. Ambroxan, Indonesian patchouli Orpur®, musk, and Virginia cedarwood Orpur® give the scent a quieter structure beneath that brightness. Together, the listed notes create a progression from fruit and greenery to floral notes, then into a base built around ambery, musky, patchouli, and woody materials.
The listed notes move through three distinct stages. Clementine, bergamot, lemon, and green tea establish the opening, combining fruit accords with a green tea facet. Magnolia, Mahonial®, pink pepper CO2, and white flowers form the middle of the composition. The base is built from ambroxan, musk, Indonesian patchouli Orpur®, and Virginia cedarwood Orpur®, creating a floral-woody-musk structure with ambery and woody elements beneath the earlier citrus and floral materials.
The evolution
Ventuno begins with clementine, bergamot, lemon, and green tea, followed by magnolia, Mahonial®, pink pepper CO2, and white flowers. As the composition develops, the initial fruit and green notes give way to its floral center. The listed base notes, ambroxan, Indonesian patchouli Orpur®, musk, and Virginia cedarwood Orpur®, define the later stage of the scent and add ambery, musky, patchouli, and woody facets. Across the composition, the progression moves from citrus and green tea through magnolia and white flowers before settling into the base accord, creating a varied presentation of the listed ingredients without relying on unverified performance claims.
Cultural impact
Ventuno reflects Eredi Zucca’s stated Italian style through a fresh floral-woody-musk composition. Italian citrus and green tea appear at the opening, alongside clementine, bergamot Orpur®, and lemon. Magnolia, Mahonial®, pink pepper CO2, and white flowers shape the middle, while ambroxan, Indonesian patchouli Orpur®, musk, and Virginia cedarwood Orpur® complete the base. Its variety comes from the range of listed notes, from fruit and green materials to floral, ambery, musky, patchouli, and woody facets.
