The legendary Italian house O`Driu, founded in Genoa in 1996 and renowned for its magical and anthropological philosophy, launched the unisex fragrance ScentAndChemistry in eau de parfum concentration in 2015.
This perfume became part of the provocative Kiss My Ass collection, whose name (KMA for short) hints at the brand's provocative nature.
Only 16 bottles were ever released, making it a true rarity.
The fragrance was created by the brand's founder and permanent creative force, Angelo Orazio Pregoni, known for his love of provocation and unconventional names.
The name ScentAndChemistry and the abbreviation KMA, which stands for “kiss my…,” are entirely in keeping with the perfumer's spirit.
According to those who tested it, the composition turned out to be light and summery despite its “heavy” name.
The perfume belongs to the aromatic family and has a very strong sillage.
This unisex fragrance is suitable for both women and men who prefer bold, memorable compositions.
If you enjoy ScentAndChemistry, consider Escentric Molecules Molecule 03, Demeter Sagittarius, and The Merchant of Venice Vetiver Bourbon—they share its atmosphere of mystery and experimentation.

The fragrance is very long-lasting, staying on the skin for 12 hours or more, gradually revealing its notes
The scent will linger in the air even after its wearer has left.
The perfume has a rich aroma that will help you stand out from the crowd and create a memorable image
A rich and elegant fragrance that gently unfolds on the skin and lasts most of the day, leaving a delicate trail
Perfumes for the fall and winter seasons often contain notes of vanilla, spices, ambergris, wood, and other warm accords, creating a feeling of comfort and warmth during the cold months
The ScentAndChemistry pyramid consists of three key notes: animalic notes, a fruity note, and vetiver.
The perfumer prefers not to disclose the full composition, but fragrance lovers note that it opens with juicy fruity accents that quickly give way to damp, earthy vetiver.
In the base, a powerful animalic accord unfolds, lending the composition sensuality and depth. Despite the richness of the notes, the fragrance feels light and summery.
