Description
“For millennia now, every year before the winter solstice,
the rite of Faugni takes place in the village of Atri.
Fauni-Ignes is an ancient pagan and agricultural tradition
that was adopted by Christianity over the centuries.
This traditional rite of fire lights up the night
until the break of dawn, when shadows are still thick.” – a note from the brand.

Fauni is composed with the rarest materials of top quality: Italian gardenia jasminoide, Indonesian ylang-ylang extra, Somali frankincense, Sumatran benzoin, Colombian Tolu balm among others.
It’s a tender white floral shrouded in smoky woody resins. The romantic concept of the perfume is the ambiance of the nocturnal rite of Faugni taking place before the winter solstice in the village of Atri (the home of Angela Ciampagna).

This fragrance is floral balsamic, as the floral is mostly tulips just as the one in “Fleurs et Flammes” by Antonio Alessandria. As it calms down the balsamic lightens up allot and the tulips goes soft and tender, the whole juice becomes quite alluring and captivating but too thin and very close to skin.
This is my 2nd test after esxence 2016 and I’m not that captivated by it as I had quite high hops for it but eventually it turned to be quite weak and thin but still I want to give it more time cause I might be missing something Angela sees. Let’s wait and see.
Edit (22nd may 2016) it is quite weak like a weaker version of “Fleurs et Flammes” by Antonio Alessandria. I wish the sample that I got is just a test and not the final version of this fragrance cause if it is the final version then it’s like buying a water version of fauni.
Edit (5th Dec 2016) damn! still i don’t smell nothing after 5 minutes of applying! i can’t detect nothing specially when i apply it on my skin! is it me or the fragrance itself!?
I like Angela’s creations but if this were in the same range of her previous fragrances (specially in 50ml) i would have definitely bought one, but with this silage and projection i won’t although i feel somehow and sometimes obliged to have this one in particular! maybe because of the effects it brings as it feels as if it’s a illusionist old witch that deludes you that she is young and beautiful while she is in fact not.
It’s my 2nd sample almost finished now & i can’t smell nothing after few minutes of applying! Why, just WHYYY?
Edit (29th Oct 2018) I have found a sample of this within my collection and damn it was good but also bad at the same time! it has a beautiful tuberose and white floral but within there is a stinky unpleasant note that makes it awful! it’s like the foodi note that i found in “Liquo”! something like spices and it kind of stinks. I just want to love this so bad but i just can’t! Evgeniya Chudakova wrote one day in 2016 when this one was released:
“either a girl or an old witch trying to create a delusion and make us see her as a young beauty. And it’s also not a gardenia, but its image – not pretending to be real. A strange and marvelous fragrance. They sometimes say about such things: “repulsingly attractive””
Today i believe this image is clear as i didn’t believe it were back then! to me now it’s just repulsive 🙁 and i just wish that note isn’t there!
