Fortuna

Sunlight pours over an autumn orchard—warm, golden, and radiant.

Sweet orange and mandarin shimmer before melting into the nectar of honey and beeswax. Osmanthus unfurls its apricot softness, tender and hypnotic, like velvet air touched by warmth. In the distance, incense curls through shadows of Laotian Oud and spice, grounding the sweetness in quiet mystery. It feels like a moment between joy and surrender, when brightness lingers just before night, and everything glows with honeyed light.

Please Note: Extra Virgo samples are not filled to the top of the vial.

Extra Virgo's fragrances are formulated by H.H. Alex Postiglione, Prince Ne Min Gy of Limbin, grandson of Princess Yadana Nat Mai, Goddess of the Nine Jewels and heir to the last king of Burma. Postiglione was born in Florence and studied art history there, and spent a life cultivating a passion for plants and anthropology. All of the house's fragrances are made at the Castle of Montecucchi in Florence, chief among the family sanctuaries around the world where materials are grown and sourced.

Each one runs between seventy and eighty percent natural material, ages at least three months before blending, and cures another month before it is bottled by hand. The signature flacon is Italian crystal under a black Carrara marble cap. Continuing the family legacy passed on by Princess Yadana Nat Mai, Postiglione is involved with humanitarian and environmental projects aiding Myanmar, its natural biosphere and its people.
