Product description
Nostos, the description of the perfume Nostos, where Achilles is more beautiful than Ulysses. Nostos in Greek means return - what is impossible forever, which speaks to the heart and imagination; the return within the confusing place and time where hope remains. Nostos is the fundamental root of the affecting feeling called nostalgia, and the pain of Nostos. Here, the perfume is the vehicle of return that one vainly aspires to. Like the intense and deep incense that would burn for three thousand years, the perfume celebrates the Homeric epic of the most beautiful heroes, whose anger and unforeseen consequences led to the Trojan War. The totemic character of the desired but unfulfilled Nostos is Achilles. This is not Nostos Ulysses and Odysseus; here, he is Achilles, the symbol of the perfume, born of love, like the Trojan War. Achilles is a complex hero with a dual essence: human through his father, Peleus. He carries within him the beauty of duality, sometimes a formidable warrior with a strong grip and penetrating gaze – the masculinity of the superior oak that is undefeated in Troy – and sometimes the femininity of the rose. Achilles is the violence and beauty hidden in the exceptional diversity of humanity. A spear or shield, this perfume also has a dual nature, where the Greek hero is adorned with the magic of jasmine and sandalwood. The art of war or love, the perfume approaches perfection to attack time, fight our limited fates, and ultimately triumph over the harsh Greek fates with amber, saffron, and incense. Achilles will never return to his homeland. He is aware of this, and fights this destiny, forever torn by the desire to return, pursued by this miserable weapon against fate, with this longing in which we see the victory of his humanity. The scent of the most beautiful Greek hero, fragile and dangerous, was crafted by Hephaestus, the forge of fire, to ensure victory.
