Mezzo is a unisex eau de parfum by Sospiro, the Italian house founded in 2011 that composes perfumes like music. Part of the Classica collection, it is a woody aromatic fragrance: fresh, composed and quietly magnetic.
The Fragrance
The name comes from the language of music, where mezzo means the middle degree, as in mezzo piano, mezzo forte or mezzo-soprano: a perfect balance between momentum and control. For the house, Mezzo captures the feeling of a suspended presence, elegant and grounded, that stays in the memory for a long time. It is one of Sospiro's most recent creations, from the house that has been writing a new chapter from Dubai since 2022, and it wears the velvet bottle finished like a butterfly's wing, with an engraved rose gold cap.
How It Evolves on Skin
The opening is bright: bergamot and mandarin join juniper and an aromatic lavender. In the heart, crisp apple meets earthy vetiver, ginger and the softness of magnolia. The base is smooth and lasting, with tonka bean, moss, musk and patchouli closing the composition with enveloping warmth.
Who We Recommend Mezzo To
For those looking for a fresh perfume with substance, to be worn every day with ease. Mezzo is perfect by day, at the office as well as in free time, and it is at its best in spring and summer, while remaining delightful in autumn too; in the evening it suits an outdoor dinner beautifully.
