{"title":"Villa Erbatium","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVilla Erbatium perfumes\u003c\/strong\u003e come from an independent fragrance house in Seoul, South Korea, led by its founder and perfumer Ha Minseo Caterina. Every scent is composed in-house with the brand's own formulas, and each eau de parfum is built around one concrete memory or place: fresh hotel sheets, a glass of whiskey after work, a valley in the Scottish Highlands.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWho is behind Villa Erbatium?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHa Minseo Caterina signs every box as \"CEO and representative perfumer\". She has written that studying in Italy, among craftspeople who took pride in their trade, shaped the brand, and the name reflects that: \u003cem\u003evilla\u003c\/em\u003e (a cultural space) and \u003cem\u003eerba\u003c\/em\u003e (herb) are Italian, while \u003cem\u003etium\u003c\/em\u003e is Korean for sprouting. The house motto is \"Perfume, on the border between Science and Art\", and its atelier in Seoul's Samcheong-dong neighbourhood is designed to look like an alchemist's laboratory.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat do Villa Erbatium fragrances smell like?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe range is split into three lines. The Bronze Collection holds the classics, such as the green, tea-like Mossy Glen and the boozy, fruity Fig Whiskey. The Noir Collection is darker and bolder, with the black rose and tobacco of Dracula and the salty, cottony musk of Allegria. The Casual Collection is brighter and more playful, from the powdery clean-linen effect of Hotel Cotton to Rice Makgeolli and Green Grape Beer, two scents modelled on Korean drinks. Most are soft, skin-friendly unisex compositions that lean on musk, woods and gentle florals instead of loud sweetness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eNotable collaborations\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVilla Erbatium created Scent of Seoul as the official fragrance of the Seoul Metropolitan Government, composed Dracula with the Korean production of the musical, and made Allegria for Minhyuk of the K-pop group MONSTA X.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhere to start\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNew to the house? Hotel Cotton and Mossy Glen are the two most reviewed Villa Erbatium fragrances on Fragrantica and Parfumo, and they show both sides of the brand: one clean and powdery, one green and woody. Every Villa Erbatium fragrance here is an authentic full-size 50 ml bottle in the brand's marble-patterned book box.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0554\/9382\/0450\/collections\/villa-erbatium-perfume-bottle.jpg?v=1791930550","url":"https:\/\/fragrancelord.com\/en-ca\/collections\/villa-erbatium.oembed","provider":"Fragrancelord.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
