Journey to Sicily – The Land of Blood Oranges

As summer reaches its peak, it’s the perfect time to embark on another sensory journey with Shay & Blue’s "Olfactive Postcards" series. This time, we’re heading to the sun-soaked island of Sicily, home to one of the most vibrant and distinctive citrus fruits: the Blood Orange. Join us as we explore the captivating allure of this unique ingredient and how it brings a burst of life and energy to one of our signature fragrances.

The Essence of Sicilian Blood Oranges

Nestled in the heart of the Mediterranean, Sicily is a land of rich culture, stunning landscapes, and a climate that nurtures some of the world’s most exquisite fruits. Among them, the Blood Orange stands out, not just for its striking red flesh but for its distinctive, tangy aroma that captures the essence of the island’s sun-drenched shores.

Blood Oranges are celebrated for their complex flavor that combines the sweetness of orange with hints of raspberry and a touch of tartness. This unique profile is reflected in its scent, which is fresh, invigorating, and subtly sweet. In perfumery, Blood Orange offers a vibrant and dynamic note that can uplift and energize any fragrance composition.

The Olfactory Journey

Imagine a warm Sicilian morning, where the sun casts a golden glow over groves of citrus trees. As you wander through the orchards, the air is filled with the invigorating scent of freshly picked Blood Oranges, their zesty aroma mingling with the gentle sea breeze. This is the sensory experience we aim to capture in our fragrances at Shay & Blue, bringing a slice of Sicilian paradise directly to you.

In perfumery, Blood Orange is more than just a top note; it’s an invitation to experience the vibrant energy of Sicily. It adds a bright, juicy burst of freshness that enlivens the senses and brings a touch of Mediterranean sunshine to every spritz.
