The Vidal Family, involved in the arts of perfumery for more than a century, recognised the need for a cultural luxury brand that would express the uniqueness of Venice: The Merchant Of Venice. The Merchant of Venice is a brand that has its conceptual origins in the ancient Art of Perfumery originated in Venice and from its centuries old trade with the Orient.
The line is inspired by the “Mude,” the maritime trade routes that covered a very large area from Asia to Africa, and on to Europe as far as the Northern Seas. The “Mude” started from Venice and reached many different harbours, which in turn were the destination of other commercial routes. These ports were the exchange centres for raw materials and finished products. This system enabled the Republic of Venice to acquire the knowledge and raw materials that otherwise it could not directly attain from within its own mainland.
Through master craftsmen such as the Muschieri (perfumers) and the Saoneri (soap makers), new techniques of production were invented that made the Venetian perfumes and cosmetics highly sought after products in all the Royal Courts of Europe.

THE MERCHANT OF VENICE
Olfactory Notes
Ingredients
This majestic and audacious composition opens with the citrus notes of bergamot, which are then sweetened by floral touches of geranium and plum. The original colour of the sandalwood ingredient is suggestively mirrored in the brown tones throughout the pattern on the glass bottle. Masterly merged with patchouli, the same ingredient gives pride and intensity to the fragrance. The passionate combination of vanilla with labdanum reveals the richness of Ottoman Amber, a noble fragrance that takes its inspiration from a far-away and dream-like world.

Top Notes: The fragrance opens with a bright burst of citrusy Bergamot, providing a refreshing initial impression. This is softened by the sweet, floral aroma of Plum and a touch of rosy Geranium, creating a balanced and inviting opening.
Heart Notes: As the top notes fade, a warm and woody heart emerges. Cedarwood provides a dry, slightly smoky aroma, while earthy Patchouli adds depth and complexity. Creamy Sandalwood lends a smooth, milky sweetness, intertwining with the other heart notes to create a rich and sophisticated accord.
Base Notes: The long-lasting base of Ottoman Amber is warm, resinous, and opulent. Labdanum contributes a leathery, ambery sweetness, while Myrrh adds a balsamic, slightly medicinal touch. The Oud accord brings a smoky, woody depth, and creamy Vanilla rounds out the base with a touch of comforting sweetness. This combination creates a lingering, sensual, and luxurious dry down.
