Carpe Diem

Carpe Diem by Ateneo dell'Olfatto is a Oriental fragrance for women and men. This is a new fragrance. Carpe Diem was launched in 2025. The nose behind this fragrance is Fabio Bernardi. Top notes are Hazelnut, Turmeric, Peanut and Citrus; middle notes are Gourmand Accord, Tuberose, Carrot and Iris; base notes are White Woods, Sandalwood, Amber, Musk and Lactones. Carpe Diem is a perfume that invites you to seize the moment and live it fully. It tells of the happiness of simple gestures, the sweetness of authentic relationships, and the warmth of moments that stop time. It opens with a gourmand and luminous accord, where toasted hazelnut and peanut evoke intimacy and familiarity, while golden turmeric diffuses a honeyed light. The citrus notes of lemon, orange, and grapefruit bring vitality and lightness, like a sudden smile. At the heart, iris and carrot offer a powdery and reflective delicacy; tuberose adds a mystical note, a symbol of authenticity and consciousness. The base, built on creamy sandalwood, white woods, ambergris, and tonkin musk, conveys calm, presence, and memory. A fragrance that does not promise eternity but makes you perceive it for an instant. A perfume that accompanies, does not impose: an olfactory Carpe Diem.
