16 Curve: A Distinctive New Fragrance from Ateneo dell'Olfatto
Ateneo dell'Olfatto has introduced 16 Curve, a unisex eau de parfum launched in 2025. Perfumers Giulia Brigliadori and Andrea Meloni have composed a woody-spiced scent with an individual character.
It opens with a vibrant burst of citrus and spice, settling into a rich, leather-oud heart and a warm, woody base.
The top notes are a lively blend of pink pepper, turmeric and yuzu. The pink pepper brings a shimmering effect, the turmeric adds an earthy touch, and the yuzu contributes a fresh, citrusy lift that brightens the whole arrangement.
At the heart, white flowers are intertwined with leather, oud wood and airy notes. There's a compelling tension between the soft florals and the deep, slightly animalic edges of leather and oud.
The base is built on gaiac wood, sandalwood, vetiver and amber. These ingredients give warmth and staying power, with an earthy and subtly animalic undertone that rounds everything off.
The principal accords are woody, warm spicy, white floral, oud, leather, citrus, amber, earthy, animalic, and soft spicy. 16 Curve moves easily between freshness and depth, making it suitable for a range of settings, from daytime wear to evening events.
Giulia Brigliadori and Andrea Meloni have created a balanced yet striking composition, somewhere between contemporary perfumery and traditional craftsmanship. It's a fragrance with real presence, aimed at anyone looking for an original signature.
Ideal for those who love woody-spiced fragrances with a touch of leather and oud, and who are seeking a gender-neutral scent with character.
16 Curve is a confident, well-crafted fragrance that deserves a place in any serious collection. It's a testament to the skill of Brigliadori and Meloni, and a fine addition to Ateneo dell'Olfatto's portfolio.
