A place that is eternally cherished in the heart — its memory, the feeling. It may be hidden or obscured, but never erased. In this place, the wind carries myrrh, earth welcomes rain, and fire doesn’t burn but transforms. Outopia marries the ancient oils of myrrh, frankincense and opoponax with modern aromachemicals: the marine/anise of Naxolide and the woody/amber of Maderal. Cool, earthy, smouldering.
Perfumer: Cristiano Canali
All about this fragrance
Vibe check
Think of returning indoors after rain, carrying the chill of the air into a quiet room. Outopia’s cool marine-anise facets and smouldering resins suit that unhurried, inward mood: a presence with depth, without the ceremonial weight of a purely smoky incense.
How to wear
Try it first in mild to cool weather, when the contrast between airy facets and warm resins can feel most distinct. Start with one or two sprays on skin and let the composition settle before adding more; use a lighter application in heat or close quarters.
Who it’s for
For lovers of incense and myrrh who want something cooler and more contemporary than a densely smoky resin perfume. Its earthy texture, marine-anise accents and woody amber will appeal to tastes that favour unusual contrasts over straightforward sweetness.

The nose
Cristiano Canali composed Outopia. Known for characterful fragrances such as Zoologist Bee, he works with richly textured materials and distinctive contrasts. Here, ancient resin oils meet contemporary aromachemicals, bringing cool marine-anise facets and woody amber into an earthy incense composition.
Collaborators
Stefania Squeglia created Outopia’s vision and concept: an inner refuge that welcomes and transforms. Her elemental imagery provided the creative framework for Cristiano Canali’s formulation.
Mendittorosa’s story
Mendittorosa treats perfume as independent artistic research, bringing perfumers into close collaboration with Italian artists and artisans. Each fragrance and its container are conceived as a connected artwork, with the perfumer chosen for their ability to interpret the vision rather than their fame.
Outopia’s concept
Outopia belongs to Freedom, Mendittorosa’s fourth creative chapter, devoted to inward freedom and authentic living. Its imagined destination is a place preserved in the heart: wind carries myrrh, earth receives rain, and fire transforms rather than destroys. The composition translates that refuge through ancient resins and modern aromatic materials.
Extra info
Outopia’s gold-coloured bird cap represents myrrh and precious resins. Alessandro Reggioli created the ceramic-and-metal-leaf bird, while Alessandro Stabile designed its machine-shaped, hand-finished birchwood cage. The bottle extends the Freedom collection’s theme into a sculptural object.
