HOW IT WEARS
Essence of the Park by Carthusia is an Eau de Parfum that will give the wearer 6 – 8 hours of longevity on the skin. A crisp and herbaceous green floral with opening notes of citrus, soft spices and pink pepper, giving way to a deeper green bed of vetiver, elemi and white musk gives this fragrance a bright, zesty aromatic wear throughout and on through dry down.

LORE LOVES
We love how Essence of the Park smells exactly like you’d think it would, if not better. A fresh, pretty and uplifting perfume that carries the wearer away to joyous afternoons spent languidly lazing, or strolling happily through lush green grass and surrounding gardens filled with bounties of magnolia and other abundant nature, fresh air and carefree days in the warm glow of the sun. Inhale deeply and enjoy!

ABOUT THE BRAND
In 1380 on the island of Capri, the monks of Carthusian Monastery of St. Giacomo were taken by surprise when they learnt that Queen Joan of Anjou would be visiting them. Legend has it the father prior went around the island, gathering the most beautiful flowers he could find to present to the queen. The flowers were kept in water for 3 days, and just as the monks went to throw them away, they noticed a beautiful fragrance coming from the water. They went to their alchemist, who figured out how to recreate and preserve the scent, thus creating the first perfume of Capri. 
Hundreds of years later, in 1948, the monks’ perfume formulas were rediscovered by the Priory of Certosa. With permission from the Pope, a chemist went about reproducing the formulas in a small laboratory, named Carthusia.
In the late 40s painter Mario Laboccetta created Carthusia’s logo – a flower siren surrounded by native Capresi blooms, symbolising the brand’s indissoluble bond with Capri.
Today, Carthusia’s fragrances are still all handmade, observing centuries old practises, ensuring the highest level of quality in their fragrances. The spirit and history of Capri is embedded in every Carthusia product, and all ingredients are derived from Capri’s environment, paying homage to the beautiful island.
