The scent "Genova" was born thanks to the creativity of three young genoese entrepreneurs,
with the aim to make The Superb even more attractive, beautiful and welcoming through an
event that has never be seen before in any other city in the world.
«It is a scent created ad hoc - says Martino
Gavazzi, Euthalia Frangrances Ceo - which embraces the perfumes of the City of Genoa and of the Liguria Region:
from basil to aromatic herbs andspices,
heritage of the commercial tradition of The Maritime Republic of Genoa».
Basil is only one of the head notes of the fragrance,
together with mint, orange, bergamot and eucalyptus. The heart notes, which come out
as soon as the head notes vanish, are rosemary,
lavender, coriander, pine and clove. To conclude, the base notes:
thyme, marjoram, savory and jasmine. «We have been working on this project for months
- Gavazzi continues - in order to create not only a fragrance, but also a symbol, able to express
the nature of our city and that can literally
"furnish in an olfactory way" the city of Genoa».
A big project with a strong impact, obtained thanks to the collaboration of the different institutions acting in our Region. «Liguria is a land full of sensations and emotions - Giovanni Toti, President of the Region Liguria, says - made of views and amazing cities that fills hearts and eyes, and typical, delicious dishes that make Liguria the home of taste, and many unique aromas that welcome our tourists, from the perfume of basil and the magical pesto sauce, to the citruses that grow in our Riviera, till the smell of the sea and the maritime pines. Glad that this innovative initiative focuses on the perfumes of our land: this year, the ten thousands of visitors of the Salone Nautico Internazionale - Genoa Boat Show, will be welcomed also by a fragrance that holds the spirit of Genoa».
More than two-hundred stick diffusers are going to spread five-hundred liters of the the fragrance "Genova". «In this project - Marco Bucci, Mayor of the City of Genoa says - there is all the magnificence and beauty of Genoa: the scent of our land that goes along with the radiance of the Old Town, together with the genius of young entrepreneurs that thanks to this brilliant idea have showed their love for their city. The City of Genoa can just say Thanks for this amazing initiative that will make even more unique the streets and alleys where everyday thousands of tourists walk by».
