Cerruti Cerruti 1881 Collection is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2005, created by Yann Vasnier and Rodrigo Flores-Roux. Cerruti 1881 Collection opens with Mandarin and Olive Leaf, settles into a heart of Grapefruit and Iris, and dries down to a base of Patchouli and Cypress. Cerruti's Cerruti 1881 Collection carries a Favourite verdict, a woody-led wear.

Divisive and unique, this scent offers an uncommon blend of green, citrus, and subtle sweetness. Some find it a sophisticated Mediterranean escape, others are left utterly bewildered by its opening.

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.

About

Opens with a bright, unusual medley of Sicilian mandarin and a distinct olive leaf, evoking a sun-drenched Mediterranean grove. The heart introduces a zesty grapefruit counterpointed by a soft, earthy iris, adding depth before settling into a warm, grounding base of Tuscan cypress and patchouli that feels both elegant and natural. It's a journey from vibrant freshness to a quietly confident woody finish.
