The honest side of nature, notes undisclosed
Stercus is a Parfum by Orto Parisi, made by Alessandro Gualtieri, the Nose behind the line. The brand frames it as the honest side of nature: a secret sweetness that attracts and an animalic side that offends, as part of an endless cycle of ending and beginning. No notes are published, so a 10 ml decant is the only fair way to find out what that means on your skin.

How it unfolds
-
A frank idea in plain words
The brand describes nature as it is: part of the body's natural functioning and a way to fertilise the soil. Stercus is its answer to that, an honest scent rather than a flattering one. It tells you the mood of the perfume and nothing about its ingredients.
-
Sweetness that attracts, a side that offends
Two things are said about the scent itself: a secret sweetness that attracts and an animalic side that offends. We have no source that breaks these down, so we do not name a material. Expect a contrast, and expect that your own reaction will decide which half you notice.
-
An end and a beginning
The brand sees Stercus as the scent of an end and a beginning, an endless cycle of life. The cap follows the theme: bronze metal with an inlaid brown horn from Ethiopian cows. Everything here belongs to the idea, so the sample is the way to turn it into an experience.
Testing it
How to test it, for whom and why
How to test it
As a Parfum it is concentrated, so begin with a single spray and wait, and keep it to two at most until you know it. The brand speaks of something that offends as well as attracts, so choose the place and company with care for the first trial. The brand gives no season or occasion.
Who it is for
People drawn to unusual, outspoken perfumes who are curious about the animalic side of scent and fine with a brand that keeps its formula private. Orto Parisi sets no gender label and we list it as unisex. If you want a pleasant, easy fragrance, look elsewhere.
Why try Orto Parisi Stercus as a sample first
With no notes disclosed and an idea this direct, there is nothing to check against your taste in advance, and a reaction can be strong either way. A 10 ml decant lets you meet it at your own pace, in private, before you decide on a 50 ml bottle.

Frequently asked
What is in the sample?
A 10 ml decant of Stercus, filled by FragranceGems from the original bottle into a glass spray vial and labelled by us. It is not a brand sample and Orto Parisi is not involved.
What are the notes?
None are published. The brand keeps the formula private and says so openly. For Stercus it offers only a secret sweetness and an animalic side, so we describe the idea and nothing more.
Should the brand's words be taken literally?
They are the brand's plain way of framing nature and the cycle of life. They give an idea and a mood, not ingredients, and we stay with the idea.
Which concentration is it?
A Parfum, so it is concentrated: start with a single spray and give it time to show itself. The brand names no season or occasion.
The brand
About Orto Parisi
Orto Parisi is named after a garden: that of Vincenzo Parisi, grandfather of the perfumer Alessandro Gualtieri, which the brand says gave rise to the project. From there comes the manifesto of the house, the body as a garden whose smells mirror the soul. The Nose, as Gualtieri signs, does not reveal his notes, so each Parfum comes with a short text and nothing more. To know Megamare or Terroni you have to wear it, and a 10 ml decant lets you.
- Second project of Alessandro Gualtieri, The Nose; the first perfumes date from 2014
- Named after the garden of the founder's grandfather, Vincenzo Parisi
- The Nose does not reveal the notes used in his creations, says the brand's FAQ

I really appreciate that I found a shop that has a wide range of authentic perfumes,fast delivery,great communication and very good prices. Thanks for everything!
Timely info when item was back in stock. Some confusion with info about shipment updates on gls app but what is important: perfume came in perfect condition!
incredible fast delivery l. the fragrance itself its magnificent, the dry down woody base, is intoxicating. it last on me 10 hours plus. great service great fragrance
Good experience overall. Fast shipping without any incidents. Prices are good as well.
Really happy of my purchase. Serious seller, quality products, fast shipping, large catalog. I will order a lot of more !
Shipping was 5 days to Finland. Customer service was very good. Happy with the product also. Will shop again. Only thing I hope is that you guys would negotiate better price for GLS shipping to Finland. But I know that is not always possible. And I noticed the prices were lower than the competitors so the steep shipping price was not that big of a deal. Good job all in all.
Great shop with a fantastic selection and fast shipping. I was very happy with my order. It would have been a nice touch to receive a little sample, especially as I ordered two full-size products. ;)
Placing the order was very easy. Shipping was very fast. I am completely satisfied.
Plenty of perfumes and very good perfumes. Fast shipping. One negative. Expensive shipping from Netherlands to Greece
A selection of recent reviews in proportion to their star ratings.
