17 Rosso

The initially mysterious number-color combination 17 Rosso refers to the address of Roberto Ugolini's workshop on Via dei Michelozzi in Florence. The house number is 17 R, with R standing for Rosso, meaning red. Once you have found the street, you will be faced with the unassuming door of the shoemaker between a tavern and a café. As simple as the gateway may be, the world of traditional craftsmanship is incredibly fascinating. Finest materials and artistic genius are combined with a passion for the extraordinary. Roberto Ugolini stands for uncompromising quality and an extravagant Italian style like few others. Esteemed worldwide, the master has now become one of the best bespoke shoemakers of his time.

17 ROSSO underscores the passion for exceptional craftsmanship with a particularly high concentration of fragrance oil, at 30%, hence the declaration as Extrait de Parfum. Already, the top notes hint at an impressive scent: Among them, the fruity white peach stands out, surrounded by leathery saffron, cool mint, and green raspberry leaves. Additionally, there's fruity cananga oil from the tropical plant Ylang-Ylang. The heart reveals rich Damask rose, fruity-spicy pink pepper, and peony notes, rounded off with peppery nasturtium. Balsamic styrax resin, floral-soft ambrette seeds, and woody amyris combine with vetiver and cedarwood in the base.
