The Brand
Carthusia
Carthusia is an Italian perfume house founded in 1948 on the island of Capri, whose formulas trace back to a Carthusian monastery's flower-distillation tradition. The house name references the monks (Certosini) whose recipes seeded the line. The Carthusia range on Scendira is 24 perfumes, roughly $50 to $173. The Carthusia names that come up most in fragrance communities: Carthusia Terra Mia, Carthusia Mediterraneo and Carthusia A'mmare.
What is in the bottles
On Carthusia Terra Mia (Eau de Parfum, 2017), expect creamy coffee with vanilla, rose, and soft musk; it starts with bergamot and neroli and settles on amberwood, ambroxan and vanilla. Carthusia Mediterraneo (Eau de Parfum, 2003) reads as bright citrus and mint air, with clean white musk, opening on lemon and bergamot and drying down to white musk. Carthusia A'mmare (Eau de Parfum, 2021) is described as briny sea air, rosemary, mint on clean cedar, with salt and rosemary up top and white musk, cedarwood and gaiac wood underneath.
