In Val d'Ossola, nestled between majestic mountains and Lake Maggiore, lies one of Europe's largest Italian tea plantations. Paolo and Tiziana Terenzi were inspired by the local tea culture and created the Osola perfume, which captures the essence of the region and celebrates the art of living.
During a stay on Lake Maggiore, Paolo and Tiziana stopped here and contemplated the breathtaking landscape, where the clocks seemed to tick more slowly and every breath was filled with the scents of this little piece of earth and its traditions. A local who overheard their conversation about their search for a unique fragrance for the creation of a perfume led them to the Premosello tea plantation. In this little corner of paradise, Paolo and Tiziana were deeply impressed by the dedication and passion that accompany every facet of tea processing, from the cultivation of the Camellia sinensis plants to the handcrafted care of each individual leaf. This encounter inspired them to create Osola: a perfume that captures the essence of the Val d'Ossola and celebrates its authentic origins.
Osola opens with radiant fresh notes, a tribute to the vital energy that resonates in the valley. Green and black tea from Verbano combines with lively Brazilian petitgrain, mandarin from Lake Maggiore and lemon from Sorrento. Hints of coconut milk and Brazilian coconut create a velvety creaminess that envelops the senses like a comforting embrace. At its heart, the fragrance develops a flattering sophistication. Thai ylang-ylang and Mexican tuberose blend with orange blossom from Lake Maggiore. Cedarwood from Lake Trasimeno adds a noble, woody depth. A hint of Sicilian almond enriches the composition with its warm, enticing sweetness. The base notes of Osola pay homage to the power and indescribable beauty of nature. Bourbon vanilla from Madagascar combines with moss and oak wood from Piedmont, while ambergris gives the composition a lingering, sensual finish that evokes the magic of the Val d'Ossola with every breath. With Osola, every scent is transformed into a poetic whisper, a harmony of notes that speak of the art of enjoying the essence of life to the fullest.
