An essence whose floral and enveloping notes are rooted in myth, which plays with hypnotizing the senses like the young and beautiful Adonis against Aphrodite. Releasing the freshness of the flowers of wisteria, jasmine, geranium, damask rose, and white lily, this essence interprets and expresses the beautiful and damned Adonis, like a flower of short life that: “badly fixed to the ground and too fragile lightness owes its name to the wind and the wind just scatters its petals ”.
All about this fragrance
Vibe check
Think of a daytime conversation beside an open window: grapefruit gives the opening a brisk edge, while geranium and pale flowers soften the space between people. Adone suits an attentive, unhurried presence, with enough floral warmth to feel intimate rather than austere.
How to wear
A natural choice for mild spring days and moderate summer temperatures, when its citrus-green opening can contrast with the enveloping floral heart. Start with one or two sprays on skin; a restrained application keeps the bouquet close, while the musk and woods give the drydown a softer outline.
Who it’s for
For those who enjoy floral fragrances with green definition rather than overt sweetness. Grapefruit and geranium bring brightness and structure, while rose, white flowers and white musk appeal to a taste for soft, enveloping textures.

The nose
Maurizio Cerizza is an Italian perfumer whose work spans niche fragrances and bespoke compositions. His creations include Laboratorio Olfattivo’s Nerotic, which explores a darker woody-amber register. In Adone, his palette turns toward luminous florals, balancing grapefruit and green geranium with a musky, woody foundation.
Agatho’s story
Agatho reinterprets the atmosphere and perfumery heritage of Pompeii through contemporary Italian fragrance. Its philosophy combines rediscovery, quality materials and craftsmanship, pairing historically inspired compositions with Capodimonte porcelain caps. The ancient ointment-maker Agatho serves as the house’s heritage narrative rather than a claim that its perfumes reproduce archaeological formulas.
Adone’s concept
Part of Agatho’s inaugural Pompei Collection, Adone takes its name from Adonis and draws on the myth of his beauty, Aphrodite’s love and his untimely death. Its floral composition translates the fragility of that beauty into scent, with love enduring as memory rather than through a literal reconstruction of an ancient perfume.
Extra info
Adone is the Italian name for Adonis. Its Capodimonte porcelain cap is hand-decorated and kiln-fired in the house’s workshop, linking the myth-inspired fragrance to Agatho’s emphasis on Italian decorative craftsmanship.
