MOMENTO is a Floral Aldehydic fragrance, masterfully crafted to blend the timeless tradition of a classic colonia with a modern, sophisticated sensibility. MOMENTO begins with an uplifting burst of citrus zest from bergamot and lemon, paired with the sparkling freshness of aldehydes and the anisic edge of absinthe and tarragon, evoking the lively energy of Havana’s sunlit streets. As it evolves, the heart unveils a soothing blend of lavender, rose, jasmine, and verbena, blooming with delicate floral and herbal nuances, softened by powdery and smoky undertones.
