Founded in Amsterdam in 2014 by Italian perfumer Alessandro Gualtieri, Orto Parisi pays tribute to his grandfather Vincenzo Parisi and his vegetable garden. After an initial series of five fragrances, the house developed an independent collection, still conceived and composed by Gualtieri from his Dutch studio.

Orto Parisi explores the scents of the body, soil and nature through dense, animalic, earthy and sometimes marine compositions. Alessandro Gualtieri favours intuition and experimentation, without an official fragrance pyramid, in glass bottles topped with metal caps.

Right now at Fragsplit, 5 Orto Parisi fragrances are available as 1 to 10 ml decants or official samples: Cuoium, Seminalis, Terroni, Viride, Boccanera.
