THE MERCHANT OF VENICE Cyprus Shell
19000432022

In 2025 The Merchant of Venice completed the Murano Collection with the creation of a fragrance related to the raw materials and journey of the Muda of Syria.A creative interpretation of powder, or Cyprus powder, inspired by the Secreti Nobilissimi of the Art of Perfumery.
Irises and roses, lichens, sugar, spices, woods, and amber are just a few ingredients found in ancient recipes, which in the new fragrance of The Merchant of Venice are mixed with touches of modernity.
A delicately floral fragrance in which the star ingredient, iris, is accompanied by unexpected salty facets creating a femininity born from the sea like the city of Venice.
Sailing from Venice, the Muda of Syria reached important ports along the eastern Mediterranean coast, touching the island of Cyprus as far as Beirut, Aleppo, and Laiazzo. Through this navigation, valuable ingredients such as rose, precious woods and resins such as storax and frankincense were brought to Venice, as well as other valuable goods such as cotton and sugar.
