OLYMPIA
Collection
TRIBUTE TO VETIVER
There was a time when, every four years, the second or third full moon after the summer solstice decreed the cease-fire of human hostilities to welcome the fulfilment of solemn divine will.
It was the prodigious era of the Olympic Games, in which Hellenic men and women challenged the earthly nature of their bodies by trying their hands at superhuman-esque disciplines.
These sacred events were set against the backdrop of serene and majestic ancient Olympia, the eponymous city whose age-old history is steeped in glorious and everlasting charm.
The olfactory project of the Olympia collection – composed of the Verdeseta, Forzapura and Bronzeo fragrances – effuses nobility, perfection and the rituality of sporting activities, as once regarded in ancient Greece, and blends with the desire to celebrate the same location's spiritual richness and traditions.
These aspects have led Agatho Parfum to create a line of distinctive yet complementary fragrances.
By dint of their excellent quality and renewed creativity, each creation is able to paint a picture of sport in a different light, not just as a physical exercise, but as a true art form capable of shaping the mind, body and soul.
To fully convey this powerful vision, Agatho Parfum has opted for an exceptional protagonist, a precious and ancient ingredient which bestows an incredibly energising yet earthy note: VETIVER.
This plant originates from India, where it is known as khus and characterised by its ultra-peculiar roots: they protect the soil in the event of tropical rain and are custodians of a remarkable sap, whose sweet and fresh fragrance would provide some relief during the oppressive summer heat.
VERDESETA
With Verdeseta, Agatho Parfum has created an enveloping, Mediterranean-evoking, plant-focused fragrance that promotes the long-forgotten rituality of sport and the sacredness of its movements.
The sour yet unmistakable note of freshly pressed olive is reminiscent of the spa settings in which men and women would prepare the body before competitions, and releases all the strength of natural nectar, which is able to purify the body and reinvigorate the spirit.
It is then the vetiver’s turn – in its warmest and most amber sense – to sublimate this fragrance with a velvety touch, just like a soft silk drape that glides delicately over bare skin.
FORZAPURA
The vigorous, powerful and instinctual Agatho Forzapura is the crowning jewel of the sumptuous fragrances that make up Agatho Parfum’s surprising new Olympia collection.
This creation encompasses movement as a whole, from its origins to its execution, with a powerful firmness in keeping with those of athletes.
Forzapura’s earthy and long-lasting vetiver is an homage to the age-old perfection of the sporting discipline and its two complementary facets: the reasoned lucidity involved in preparation and the animal-like physicality of enacting the sport.
BRONZEO
Another star is born from Agatho Parfum’s excellent craftsmanship: Bronzeo.
This material character-filled fragrance is shaped around an absolute protagonist... the vetiver.
The sap extracted from the root of this mythical grass gives life to a malleable perfume, which essentially preserves the iconic and timeless character of a work of art.
As part of its journey to honour the sporting discipline and its illustrious tradition, the Maison has crafted a fragrance with grassy and earthy scents to honour the more refreshing side of sport: rest, whether that be preparatory or restorative in nature.
