A magnetic skin scent that blends creamy milk facets with velvety woods, Seminalis opens airy and suggestive with a whisper of aldehydic brightness before pouring into a plush mix of vanilla, sandalwood, and a tactile musk that feels intimate and enveloping. Gentle floral tones and a faint leathered undertow add texture to the silk-like drydown, giving a soft yet persistent aura in extrait strength.

Story and Positioning
Conceived as a bottle of first stimulus, Seminalis draws on the idea of an aromatic aldehyde that guides attraction, with brand language pointing to life initiated by smell. Within Orto Parisi, it stands as the house’s tender side beside bolder chapters like Megamare, Terroni, Cuoium, Brutus, Bergamask, and others, offering a lactonic woody comfort that suits lovers of creamy sandalwood and sensual vanilla trails.
Bottle and Design
The bottle is a compact, clear glass flask with a thick, footed base that shows the pale cream-toned juice. A textured wrap label in quiet beige sits low on the front for a tailored look. The cap is solid metal with an ivory stone-like inlay on top, giving a cool hand feel and a visual nod to the fragrance’s milky theme. Proportions are balanced so it stands securely and reads as an artisanal object on the shelf.
