Carthusia Via Camerelle is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2006. Via Camerelle opens with Bergamot, Lemon, Orange, and Marjoram, settles into a heart of Cyclamen, Jasmine, and Lily, and dries down to a base of Musk, Amber, and Cedar. Carthusia's Via Camerelle carries a Favourite verdict, a fresh-led wear.

This is a seriously divisive citrus, folks. Some reckon it's a natural, glorious green herbal wonder with great longevity, while others find it fleeting, too sharp, or even a bit like cleaning products. You'll either adore its unique, bitter zest or find it a bit too unusual.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

Its fresh and clean profile makes it excellent for casual wear, office environments, and even sport, assuming the sillage isn't overbearing. While some report good longevity, many describe it as a light skin scent, which helps it remain appropriate for closer settings.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Citral Geranial from Lemon

Other declarable allergens

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Via Camerelle bursts open with a vibrant, almost tart hit of lemon and bergamot, underpinned by the aromatic, slightly savoury edge of marjoram. This sharp, green citrus then mellows, giving way to delicate white florals like jasmine and cyclamen. The drydown settles into a soft, warm musk and cedar, with a touch of amber adding a nuanced sweetness that prevents it from being purely green.
