Ortigia Sicilia Perfume, Bath & Body and Home Accessories.
Ortigia is a luxurious and bespoke Italian, Soap, Body, Bath and Home company founded in Sicily by artist Sue Townsend. Ortigia Sicilia is a opulent and highly coveted range of soaps, perfumes, body creams, candles, diffusers, liquid soaps, showergels and hand creams formulated using natural products indigenous to Sicily, such as Olive Oil, and inspired by the aesthetics, colours and scents of Italy’s most historic and tropical region.
All Ortigia products are made by small family companies who pride themselves on the quality of their products. The highly decorative packaging is designed by Sue Townsend and draws on exotic Sicilian images and colours.
Ortigia Sicilia's perfumes for men and women are uniquely distilled from the flowers of Sicily by master perfumer, Lorenzo Villoresi, creating a very individual and exotic collection of fragrances. The rituals of Ortigia Sicilia include perfume oils and natural ingredients: olive oil, vegetable glycerine, and organic colours. Unlike many beauty and home brands Ortigia Sicilia rely on the quality of these natural ingredients and their formulas contain no sls, nickel or silicone and are not tested on animals. Ortigia is also paraben-free, using traditional products with modern ethics and integrity.
The name Ortigia derives from the bewitching and small island that lies at the edge of the ancient fortified city of Siracusa, on Sicily’s southeastern coast. The streets of Ortigia are crumbling baroque façades of great splendour looking out on 3 sides to the sea.
The Piazza del Duomo is considered one of the most beautiful in Italy. Situated on the southeastern side of Sicily, this part of the island is known as 'la Sicilia Orientale' because of its proximity to Africa and almost tropical climate.
Sicily is enriched with a colourful history of conquest, invasion and assimilation. It has been fought over and colonised: Greeks, Phoenicians, Romans, Byzantines, Arabs, Normans, Hohenstaufens, Angevins, Aragonese and Bourbons all left their mark. Examples are found throughout the island. The island’s history, reflected in the uniquely rich and layered culture that is found in Sicily today, has inspired the creation of the Ortigia designs that are iconic to the range, such as the animal print design of Ambra Nera, the exotic elephant iconic within the Sandalo design and the tigers of Zagara.
In the rich volcanic soil of Mount Etna – Europe’s highest active volcano – there are hundreds of orange & lemon groves – the only place where blood oranges grow – also grapefruit trees, almonds, pistachios, saffron, vines, olives and cactus. These essences form the basis for the beautiful fragrances such as Ambra Nera, Sandalo, Sicilian Lime, Fico d'India, Bergamotto, Florio and Zagara.
