What is a solid perfume?

Unlike Eau de Parfum and Eau de Toilette, which have a liquid formula, Solid Perfumes are fragrances in the form of balm or wax. They allow a targeted application of the product, which, warming in contact with the heat of the skin, conforms to it, allowing a subsequent soft and homogeneous release of the fragrance. Typically characterised by small formats, it lasts a very long time: in fact, very little is enough for a long time!

How to use

The solid perfume should be applied to the desired areas, preferably if particularly “hot” (e.g. wrists, crook of the elbow, neck, behind the ears). It should be massaged and patted gently until completely absorbed.

About Carthusia

Capri, the Italian island of dreams has been an enchanting oasis since Roman times. Its natural beauty, sunny climate and innate glamour are legendary. In 1380 the Father Prior of the Monastery of St. Giacomo made Queen Giovanna D’ Angio’ a flower arrangement with the most beautiful island flowers. The water was not changed for three days, and the Prior noticed that the water had acquired a beautiful fragrance. This became the first perfume of Capri. Forgotten and re-discovered in 1948, the Monastery with permission of the Pope, revealed the recipe to a chemist, who created the smallest fragrance laboratory in the world and called it ‘Carthusia’. Today the perfume tradition continues and limited production ensures the same methods used by the Carthusian monks are respected.
