The premier release in Spiritica's Crime Collection, Leonarda is a polarizing masterpiece formulated by perfumer Paolo Cerizza and concepted alongside criminal psychology experts. The fragrance details the haunting historical account of Leonarda Cianciulli, the infamous "Soap-Maker of Correggio." Driven by an aberrant maternal love to protect her children from a dark prophecy, she sacrificed three women, turning their fat into artisan soaps and mixing their dried blood into homemade tea cakes for her neighbors. It is an unparalleled olfactory thriller that walks the razor's edge between pristine domestic comfort and morbid madness.
