There are days when you don't want to smell like perfume. You want to smell like yourself. Clean ski...
Immerse yourself in the world of V Canto with the scent Mea Culpa, released in 2015.
This unisex perfume is presented in the concentration of Perfume (Extract), ensuring richness and longevity, perfectly highlighting the sophistication of Italian craftsmanship.
The brand V Canto, also known as Quinto Canto, was born from the creative union of the perfumer dynasty Paolo and Tiziana Terenzi, bringing a unique niche approach to the industry where each composition is a story that comes to life on the skin.
The creation of Mea Culpa was led by the legendary Paolo Terenzi, whose experience and sensitivity to materials made this scent a gem in the brand's collection.
His style, combining traditions and innovations, reflects the DNA of V Canto – the pursuit of emotional depth and artistic expression through perfumery.
This release strengthened the brand's reputation as a pioneer in the niche segment, offering scents that don't just smell, but tell entire sagas.
Positioned as a unisex scent, Mea Culpa breaks gender stereotypes, inviting all connoisseurs of refined smells on a journey through woody and balsamic chords.
Its middle trail creates a delicate but confident presence, perfect for evening outings or cozy autumn days.
The scent unfolds gradually, starting with mystical top notes and transitioning into a warm, cozy base, making it complimentary and easily recognizable in a crowd.
For optimal enjoyment, we recommend applying Mea Culpa to pulse points on the skin – wrists and neck, where body heat will help reveal all facets of the composition.
Although specific dosage data is not specified, a universal tip: one or two sprays are enough to enjoy the harmony of notes without overload.
This perfume particularly shines in cool weather, emphasizing its woody and balsamic essence, making it a faithful companion for romantic dates or creative inspirations.
If Mea Culpa has captured your heart, be sure to explore other creations from the world of niche perfumery.
Similar scents, such as V Canto Arsenico, Tiziana Terenzi Orionis, and The Spirit of Dubai Majalis, will offer alternative interpretations of woody and balsamic themes, expanding your perfumery palette.
Each of them, like Mea Culpa, carries a unique story and emotion, making the choice the next step in your fragrant journey.

The most concentrated form of perfume with a deep, multifaceted composition, exceptional durability, and an expressive 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 note pyramid of Mea Culpa begins with a mysterious duet of frankincense and sand, creating an atmosphere of ancient rituals and desert landscapes in the top notes.
At the heart of the composition, the harmony of woody elements unfolds: birch brings freshness and lightness, while cedar and patchouli add depth and earthy tones, softened by delicate powdery notes.
The base accord wraps in warmth thanks to benzoin, sweet vanilla, and sensual musk, creating a long, cozy trail that smoothly evolves on the skin.
This pyramid reflects groups of balsamic, powdery, and woody notes, harmoniously combining into the aromatic and woody families.
Each layer unfolds gradually, offering a multifaceted journey from a mystical beginning to a tender finale, making the composition ideal for those who appreciate complex and emotional fragrances.
