NUIT CHARNELLE

Rome is immense and boundless; you get lost.  But on the terrace of the Pincio, which overlooks the gardens of Villa Borghese, the view is unique; we go to meet each other. We look at each other, we touch each other by mistake, we smell each other and then we run away together. At dawn, the scent of that night is the only face that remains.

Nuit Charnelle is the story of a lightning-fast and overwhelming passion framed by the breathtaking view of the gardens of Villa Borghese. The male protagonist, looking out onto the Pincio terrace, immersed in the beauty of the city and the scents of the gardens below, is struck by a woman. Irresistible and disturbing, mesmerizing and seductive like Tuberose, the sight of her enraptures him. 

The jasmine carried by the wind, the green notes of the centuries-old plants, the pomegranate that refreshes the air and even the marine notes that come from the horizon, vanish in sight. The woman, cloaked in transgression and sin, is the most powerful call of instinct. The man steps forward. A strong, decisive, manly embrace lights the fire of an overwhelming passion. An olfactory memory of animalistic and hypnotic notes will remain from that night which, on the finish, become gently warm.
