The Merchant of Venice 2025 EDP
Cyprus Shell
by Gaël Montero
The Merchant of Venice Cyprus Shell is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2025, created by Gaël Montero. Cyprus Shell opens with Salt, Mandarin, and Pear, settles into a heart of Rose, Orris, and Incense, and dries down to a base of Ambrofix, Musk, Patchouli, and Oakmoss. The Merchant of Venice's Cyprus Shell carries an Acquired verdict, a woody-led wear.
This one's a mixed bag, love-it-or-hate-it for some, but a refined choice for those who get it. It’s a sophisticated iris with a salty-sweet twist, perfect for embodying that chic, 'summer in the Mediterranean' vibe without resorting to typical aquatic clichés.
