Sogno Notturno

Sogno Notturno by Brunello Cucinelli is spicy, woody and floral in equal measure, a 2024 fragrance composed by Quentin Bisch. As the name, Italian for night dream, suggests, it leans towards warmth and calm.

Nutmeg and cumin bring a warm, slightly earthy spice to the opening, with cumin adding a skin-like, almost savoury warmth. Osmanthus then lends an apricot-like, leathery floral note, and violet a soft, powdery coolness. Cistus gives a resinous, ambery depth, while sandalwood and vetiver form a creamy yet dry woody base with a gently smoky edge.

Worn by anyone, it suits those who like quiet, textured scents rather than bright or sugary ones. The spice and woods make it a natural match for evenings and cooler months, for dinners, concerts or a night at home. Its balance of flowers and wood also makes it a good option for someone who wants a refined, understated scent with a little intrigue.
