Io non ho mani che mi accarezzino il volto

Io non ho mani che mi accarezzino il volto by Filippo Sorcinelli begins with a distant, metallic, and slightly medicinal incense note. This initial coldness soon dissipates on the skin. A spicy-warm, slightly sweet cinnamon takes the lead in the heart note, while the incense remains noticeable with reduced smokiness. In the base, the incense recedes further, making way for a deep coziness. Vanillic nuances and a soft tobacco without harsh leather edges round out the composition. In this way, the fragrance transforms from a distant opening to a cozy familiarity. The perfume unfolds its full effect especially during the cold season and in quiet moments.

The fragrance opens very darkly, as if one were strolling through old walls. After a while, incense and various woods mix... some freshly cut, some burnt. Every now and then, a musty note comes through, like very old clothes or paper.

A typical Sorcinelli incense, combined with spicy and resinous notes. I find this fragrance fascinating because it invites reflection and lends a mystical warmth. When I wear it, I feel like a Greek Orthodox priest – I definitely have to try it out in the office sometime. I'm curious to see what my colleagues will say! 😁
