Mendittorosa Sirio is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2018, created by Amélie Bourgeois. Sirio opens with Rhubarb, Clean Musk, and Apple, settles into a heart of Rose, Peony, and Plum, and dries down to a base of Oud, Guaiac Wood, Vanilla, and Cashmeran. Mendittorosa's Sirio carries a Favourite verdict, a green-led wear.

A pretty, romantic floral with a tart, bright opening, Sirio is a divisive scent. Some find it elegant and evolving; others can't get past a burnt or plasticky note. Definitely try before you buy.

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.

About

Sirio opens with a zesty, tart explosion of rhubarb and apple, softened by a clean musk. This bright introduction quickly transitions to a blooming heart of rose and peony, with a juicy plum adding depth. The dry down is a warm, enveloping embrace of soft oud and guaiac wood, smoothed by creamy vanilla, cashmeran, and amberwood, leaving a lingering, ethereal trail.
