''A citrus fruit was missing, grapefruit, to conclude my citrus olfactory journey in Italy. Originally from Asia, dove It is venerated and represents an offering to the gods, it appeared in Seville, Spain, around the 12th-13th century. Like most citrus fruits, during the rule of the Arabs, excellent travelers. Probably the greatest of citrus fruits, I love grapefruit for its bitterness; bitter is one of the intelligent smells for me, unlike sweet which I find easy and uninteresting. This is perhaps due to my Italian origins, since bitter is celebrated in many drinks in Italy. In this fragrance I worked not only on the lively and acidic freshness, typical of grapefruit, but I accentuated the bitter note to distinguish it, make it unique.''
