Pernoire Vitias
Bergamot, pepper and sea air over white musk
Vitias tells the story of a first kiss by the sea. It draws on co-founder Robin Dünner's memory of a first date and on the warmth and sea air of Nico Mannino's southern Italian roots. Bergamot, lime and two kinds of pepper open onto iris, pale woods and marine notes, resting on ambergris and white musk.

How it unfolds
-
Citrus and pepper
Bergamot and lime give a bright, slightly bitter citrus snap, and pink and black pepper add a dry, tingling spice on top of it. The opening is crisp and clear, with no sweetness to soften it, and sets a cool tone for everything that follows.
-
Iris, wood and salt
The heart is calm and cool. Angelica root and iris bring an earthy softness, blond woods and guaiacum add a pale, faintly smoky wood, and the marine notes bring in the sea. It reads more as air and water than as flowers.
-
Ambergris and musk
Ambergris and white musk make a short, quiet base. Ambergris gives a warm, faintly salty depth, white musk a clean, soft finish close to the skin. Nothing heavy builds up, so the scent ends much as it began: clear and open.
Wearing it
When, who and why
How to wear it
Vitias reads fresh and clear, which makes it easy to wear in the daytime and in spring and summer. Despite the fresh opening it is an extrait, so it is more concentrated than it first seems: two or three sprays on the neck and wrists are enough.
Who it is for
If you like fresh, clean scents with some depth behind them, Vitias is a natural fit: citrus, pepper, water and musk, without sweetness. It suits the office, a day by the water or a warm evening outside. Those after a rich, sweet or smoky perfume will find it too restrained.
Why choose Pernoire Vitias
Vitias carries a personal story: a first date, a southern Italian family root and a shell on the flacon for the Mediterranean. It is an Anima-line extrait made at 25% concentration by the independent Swiss house Pernoire, founded in 2020 by two childhood friends.

Questions
Frequently asked
What concentration is Pernoire Vitias?
An Extrait de Parfum from the Anima line, made at 25% concentration. The fresh character sits on a concentrated formula, so it wears close to the skin and two or three sprays are enough.
Is Vitias a fresh scent?
In character, yes: bergamot, lime and pepper open it, and marine notes sit in the heart. Ambergris and white musk give it a soft, warm bottom, so it is clean rather than sharp.
What is the story behind it?
A first kiss by the sea: a memory of a first date, together with the warmth and sea air of the southern Italian roots of Nico, one of the founders. The shell on the bottle refers to the Mediterranean.
What size is it?
A 50 ml flacon, and an easy gift for someone who likes fresh, clean scents, since nothing in it is heavy or sweet.

The store’s selection is really good and comprehensive. Placing an order was very easy, and shipping was really fast. The fragrances were well packed and they were all excellent. I’m very satisfied. 👍💯👍
Very good quality profume, it last long and it has a good price for its incredible aroma and mixes of fruit and wood smell
A cozy, slightly sensual vanilla that feels like warm night air by the sea. Easy to love if you enjoy gourmand perfumes with a soft smoky edge.
This perfume is really well blended, I just removed a star because I personnaly don't like the top note (citronella)
Placing the order was very easy. Shipping was very fast. I am completely satisfied.
Good cologne, love the citrus and ginger scent making it a playful combo while the tea base makes it a bit more mature. Great for the gym
FragranceGems is again really quick with their releases. I hope this one smells better than Too Damn Good. Already rating a 5 star because of previous experiences!!
Already pre-order. As always, FragranceGems is the first with good releases. Looking forward to my bottle!
The cap of the bottle came with a small part of it broken off and the glass pieces were in the box
