In 1948 the Prior of the Carthusian Monastery on the breathtaking Italian island of Capri, discovered a volume of historic perfume formulas dating back to a time when the monks living there began to discover the exquisite aromatics of the herbs and blossoms on the island. With the Pope's consent, the formulas were revived by a local chemist and developed into a unique range of fragrances called Carthusia.
Today, Carthusia continues to practice its centuries-old knowledge, and has an indivisible bond with Capri – the result of zealous and professional research into components derived exclusively from Capri’s environment. These ingredients meet, mix and match in the Carthusia laboratories, producing unique harmonies of scents that beget perfumes as exceptional as the island from which they come.

ABOUT
An authentic, almost secret garden, which opens up among the alleys of Capri and intertwining under the veil of the waves, brings to shore coral branches and vegetable compositions, together with shells and unexpected explosions of a natural heritage highlighted by a sunny day. A lush, flowery, colourful garden where vegetation and water features draw a fragrant perimeter rich in details that symbolize, as a whole, life and harmony. This is the inspiration behind our new fragrance, A’MMARE.

ABOUT
A thousand different intensities converge into a sensation of refined complexity. Top notes of Mandarin, Bergamot and Rosemary, middle notes of Lavender and Black Pepper and base tones of Incense and Cedarwood, all blend together to create the fascination of a distinctly noble perfume of great character. 1681 possesses the power to seduce, conquering with its soft intensity and with a name that is easy to remember and worthy of becoming a legend. Because only a perfume with a dazzling past can become a classic.
In 1681, the monks of Capri began to prepare the first perfume essences based on local herbs and spices.
Since then, even though much has changed, the fine care and rigorous observance of natural methods (including fragrances still made with locally-sourced ingredients) have remained substantially the same.
