Marrone Fondente: A Warm Floral Oriental from Narcisse Taormina

Narcisse Taormina introduces Marrone Fondente, a new floral oriental fragrance crafted for both men and women. Launching in 2026, this fresh addition to the perfume world balances bright citrus with a sweet, comforting heart.

From the first spritz, it feels like a journey: dazzling top notes give way to a gourmand core, then settle into a smooth, resinous base that lingers on the skin.

The opening features bergamot and orange, two citrus notes that provide an immediate burst of sun-kissed energy. As they start to fade, the heart reveals peach blossom and cacao—a delicate, powdery floral paired with a rich, slightly bitter cocoa accord that gives the scent its distinctive character.

Tonka bean and amber form the base, adding warmth and depth. Together, they create a creamy, vanilla-like trail with resinous facets, making the fragrance feel cozy and sophisticated at the same time.

Marrone Fondente's accords include citrus, amber, floral, cocoa, sweet, warm spicy, vanilla, fresh spicy, aromatic, and fruity nuances. This complex blend unfolds gradually, offering a new detail with every wear.

Being unisex, it works beautifully on a wide range of people. The sillage is moderate, and the longevity is impressive, thanks to those heavier base notes. It's a fragrance that performs well through a full day, whether at the office or out at dinner.

With this release, Narcisse Taormina shows how a classic oriental floral can be updated for modern tastes. The sweetness is balanced, never cloying, and the citrus sparkle keeps it fresh. It's a versatile choice for colder months or evening wear, but also charming during the day.

Anyone who enjoys gourmand-leaning florals with a warm, ambery base. Perfect for those who want a distinctive yet approachable fragrance that works across seasons.

Marrone Fondente is a promising debut from Narcisse Taormina in this scent family. It’s a comfortable, warm, and surprisingly complex floral oriental that deserves a place in any collection.
