Crushed bitter herbs and evergreen resin, green power unleashed. Viride by Orto Parisi is green power unleashed. Bitter herbs, dark woods, sacred resins, tobacco and musk come together in a fragrance that feels wild, sophisticated and unforgettable: boldly primal yet refined, a trail of untamed elegance. Orto Parisi is the house of perfumer Alessandro Gualtieri.

The Story

The name is the Latin word for green. Viride was inspired by a visit to Yemen, where men wear crowns of aromatic herbs and flowers, worn for their appearance, their scent and, at times, relief from headaches. Orto Parisi, founded in 2014, honors Gualtieri's grandfather Vincenzo Parisi and his simple, garden-based way of life, and builds its fragrances on contrasts between the pleasant and the harsh, attraction and repulsion.

How It Smells

Opening
Intensely green, aromatic and powerful with wormwood, artemisia and lavender. It feels like crushed herbs, dark leaves and bitter green sap rather than fresh-cut grass: bold, earthy and immediately commanding.

Heart
The fragrance deepens and becomes forest-like. Jasmine adds a subtle smoothness, while cedar, fir balsam, fir and juniper create the sensation of walking through dense evergreen woods after rain. Tobacco begins to rise underneath, adding warmth and smoky texture.

Dry Down
Dark and grounding, with musk, tobacco, woods and resinous green notes. It smells primal, elegant and mysterious, with a stern masculine edge while remaining fully unisex.
