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
Adone suits a close, sunlit setting where the air still carries warmth from the day and the scent can move lightly around the wearer. It feels composed and intimate rather than loud, with a fresh floral presence that reads as polished, graceful and quietly magnetic.
How to wear
Best in spring and warm weather, Adone wears well in daylight with a moderate hand. One to three sprays are enough to let the grapefruit, rose and white musk stay airy on skin while the floral heart remains clear in the air without becoming heavy.
Who it’s for
For wearers who like fresh floral fragrances with a green edge, a luminous rose heart and a clean musky finish. It will appeal to those who prefer elegant, expressive compositions that feel classical in structure but modern in clarity.

The nose
Maurizio Cerizza is the nose behind Adone, bringing a style that often balances clarity, texture and a polished modern elegance. Here he shapes the myth of Adonis into a bright floral composition, letting citrus and green facets keep the bouquet lifted rather than heavy. Cerizza’s work for niche houses is marked by compositional discipline and a feel for naturalistic materials, which suits Adone’s fresh, luminous character. The fragrance reads as a contemporary floral with classical poise: expressive, but never ornate.
Collaborators
Alessandro Bianchi, Agatho Parfum’s CEO and founder, helped frame the brand’s Pompeii-inspired creative direction, translating the house’s historical concept into a contemporary luxury collection. The fragrance itself was composed by Maurizio Cerizza within that brief.
Agatho’s story
Agatho Parfum builds its identity around Pompeii, reviving the idea of ancient perfumery through modern niche compositions. The house favors premium natural materials, artisanal presentation and fragrances that feel rooted in Italian cultural memory rather than generic luxury.
Adone’s concept
Adone belongs to Agatho Parfum’s inaugural Pompei Collection, launched in 2019. The fragrance translates the myth of Adonis and Aphrodite into a bright floral-citrus composition, using wisteria, jasmine, geranium, damask rose and white lily to evoke beauty, fragility and tragic desire.
Extra info
Adone is part of Agatho Parfum’s Pompei Collection, a line inspired by ancient Pompeian perfumery. The bottle is finished with a handmade Capodimonte porcelain cap, turning the presentation into a collectible object as well as a fragrance.
