The Story
Why it exists.
The beginning
Pisces is the twelfth sign of the zodiac, a constellation hidden from the untrained eye, associated with sensitivity, imagination, and infinite spirit. Tiziana and Paolo Terenzi drew from their Italian roots and the Dolce Vita philosophy, beauty, joie de vivre, timeless elegance, to create this fragrance. It's a journey into the unknown where bold leather meets warm vanilla, animalic depth meets smoky sophistication. Not a safe scent. For those who understand that true presence lingers.
The note structure creates fascinating tension. Leather and ambergris bring animalic, wild qualities, untamed and bold. Vanilla and sandalwood soften the edges, adding warmth and depth. Smoky notes emerge from their interplay, creating a fragrance that evolves throughout the day. What makes Pisces interesting is how it balances opposing forces: the hidden and the obvious, the animalic and the refined. It's a study in contrasts, much like the Pisces personality itself.
The evolution
The evolution is a journey in itself. Saffron opens bright and sharp, almost medicinal, before leather takes control and doesn't let go. The animalic quality emerges early, wild and unfamiliar, setting the tone for what follows. As the heart develops, ambergris and coumarin add depth, while lavender and patchouli provide subtle complexity. The drydown is where Pisces truly shines: vanilla, musk, and sandalwood create a warm, smoky foundation that lingers for 8+ hours. On some skin, it can last even longer, evolving throughout the day into something softer, more intimate. The progression feels like a journey from clarity to depth, from brightness to warmth.
Cultural impact
Pisces stands out in the niche landscape as a bold, animalic leather fragrance, appealing to those seeking distinctive, long-lasting scents. Strong sillage and longevity ratings suggest it performs well where wearers want to be noticed. The Luna collection continues the Terenzi siblings' celestial theme. For those who appreciate unapologetic boldness, Pisces offers something different from mainstream perfumery.
