Cena con Assenza: Filippo Sorcinelli's New Woody Fragrance
Filippo Sorcinelli unveils Cena con Assenza in 2025, a woody fragrance for both men and women. The Italian nose is behind this new composition, which plays with striking contrasts.
Top notes bring together burnt wood and candied lemon, while the heart pairs myrrh with bread. The base is built on fir and hazelnut, leaving a warm, resinous trail.
Cena con Assenza sits within the woody olfactive family, yet its accords extend further: amber, aromatic, sweet, fresh spicy, nutty, balsamic, coniferous, warm spicy, and fresh. This combination makes it a complex and versatile scent.
The opening is assertive, with burnt wood at the fore and candied lemon offering a tart, sugary counterpoint. In the heart, resinous myrrh meets bread—an unexpected detail that imparts warmth and a sense of comfort.
The base moves towards a green, resinous fir, complemented by hazelnut, which adds a dry, slightly toasted edge. The result is a fragrance that balances the natural with the gourmand in an elegant way.
With an average rating of 3.75 out of 5 from early reviews, Cena con Assenza emerges as a woody scent with real character. Its 2025 launch marks it as one of the notable new releases from the Italian house.
Perfumer Filippo Sorcinelli, celebrated for his artisanal and personal style, once again shows his knack for creating olfactory atmospheres. This fragrance invites a pause, a dinner without haste, and a reawakening of the senses.
It is aimed at men and women who appreciate complex woody fragrances with a smoky, sweet twist, and who are looking for a distinctive scent for special occasions or daily wear in cooler climates.
Cena con Assenza is a daring but well-balanced creation. Its interplay of smoky, sweet, and balsamic notes will appeal to those who enjoy fragrances with a narrative. A scent to explore at a leisurely pace.
