Silvia Martinelli draws inspiration for her Giardini di Toscana perfumes from the aromatic gardens of Tuscany, where scents become portals to profound memories—from childhood moments and floral reveries to the warm aroma of grandma’s biscuits and zesty citrus groves. Tuscany’s gardens are a masterful blend of nature and architecture, embodying the harmonious union of human craftsmanship and the earth’s bounty.
In 1942, Silvia’s grandparents, Giovan Piero and Emma Ducci, founded abottegain a charming medieval village within the Casentino Valley. What began as a pharmacy evolved into a perfumery, and the original recipe book still resides there, a tangible link to its heritage. In the 1960s, their daughter Irma transformed the space into an upscale boutique, elevating its legacy.
Born into this aromatic tradition, Silvia now crafts Giardini di Toscana’s fragrances, merging traditional artisanship with innovative techniques. She sources the finest raw materials and employs age-old methods to create scents that transcend time.
Giardini di Toscana stands as a revered niche perfumery, where fragrances are born from pure passion and memory—not market trends. As an artistic expression of a family-run enterprise, each scent tells a unique narrative, resonating with distinct personalities. Unlike mainstream perfumes designed for mass appeal, the brand prioritizes individuality, forging an authentic connection between the fragrance and its wearer.
Rooted in the philosophy ofeco-luxury, Giardini di Toscana crafts premium scents with sustainable, organic ingredients. For the brand, sustainability is not a fleeting trend but a core principle. Its mission is to encapsulate eco-luxury in every bottle, honoring both artistic excellence and environmental responsibility.
