The Merchant Of Venice Accordi Di Profumo — Petitgrain Paraguay is a unisex, fougere-citrus perfume launched in 2023 by the Italian niche perfume brand, The Merchant Of Venice, as part of their Accordi Di Profumo collection. In Italian, «Accordi» translates to «harmonies,» and in the language of perfumery, it signifies a harmonious blend of olfactory notes. The collection’s name aims to evoke the cultural essence of the brand, which seeks to spark an interest in the history of perfumery. Each fragrance in the collection is built around a specific key ingredient, which is named alongside its origin. Additionally, all the fragrances in the collection can be layered together to create a unique perfume. Petitgrain Paraguay is a classic, elegant scent with a modern interpretation. The bright freshness of citrus creates a joyful undertone of spark and vitality, enhanced by the woody note of petitgrain, which imparts a subtle earthy nuance to the composition. Petitgrain, obtained through steam distillation of the branches and leaves of the bitter orange tree, intrigues with its green, crispy, and sparkling notes. The Merchant Of Venice’s experts recommend pairing the Petitgrain Paraguay with Litsea Cubeba, which has an intense citrus note. This results in an captivating and piquant fragrance with herbaceous and fruity undertones. Interesting compositions can also be achieved by combining it with Neroli Marocco (Moroccan Neroli) and Tonka Venezuela (Venezuelan Tonka Beans).
