Scent as part of identity: finding your perfume signature

The name of the young perfume house Ricordi is no coincidence: it translates from Italian as "memories." The brand was born in 2022 in Italy – a country that has set the tone in the world of fragrances for centuries. Its creators were inspired by the idea of capturing vivid moments of life in liquid form, turning each bottle into a portal to the past. Unlike many modern niche brands, Ricordi does not rely on extravagant names but on a numbered collection, where each fragrance is like a chapter of a personal diary. This is unisex perfume in Eau de Parfum concentration – rich, multifaceted, and long-lasting.
The brand's catalog is centered around four fragrances with simple and expressive names: Uno (1), Due (2), Tre (3), and Quattro (4). Each number symbolizes a certain stage of an emotional journey – from the first shy meeting to deep attachment. For example, Ricordi Uno sounds fresh and dynamic, perfect for starting the day, while Ricordi Tre unfolds with warm woody and spicy notes, reminiscent of a loved one's embrace. The special edition Anni di Ricordi (years of memories) is not just the fifth fragrance but an homage to all past moments: complex, velvety, with notes of leather, tobacco, and resinous shades. It becomes the embodiment of mature sensuality.
The most popular fragrances of the brand according to user reviews are Tre and Anni di Ricordi. The first captivates with its universal beauty: a citrus start transitioning into a spicy heart chord with hints of saffron and amber. The second is a favorite among connoisseurs of deep and sillage compositions. Ricordi Due is not far behind, where sea salt and cedar create an image of free wind. The entire portfolio is united by a love for contrasts: coolness meets warmth, synthetic notes meet natural ones, Italian chic meets modern simplicity. The brand avoids complex literary descriptions, allowing everyone to create their own story.
Ricordi fragrances are unisex, and this is not a marketing gimmick but a conscious choice. The fresh and herbal chords of Uno are suitable for men and women who prefer dynamics, while the more velvety Quattro and Anni di Ricordi will appeal to lovers of evening outings. The Eau de Parfum concentration offers excellent longevity – 6–8 hours on the skin, with a moderate sillage that doesn't overwhelm others.
Despite its young age (founded in 2022), the brand has already attracted the attention of collectors and bloggers. Ricordi does not attempt to compete with century-old houses; it offers sincere, accessible niche perfumery for those who appreciate quality ingredients, purity of sound, and a personal emotional connection to a fragrance. Try starting with any number from the collection – it might become the first memory of your olfactory book.
