THE STORY 

Being inebriated by the garden’s fragrances represents a unique experience for your senses. In Tuscany, a garden is a place where architecture and nature meet, the relationship between human-made work and the soil. This is the place where, in 1942, the story of an olfactory journey among the fragrances of the most authentic perfumery began. In a picturesque medieval village in the Casentino Valley, in the heart of Tuscany, Italy, grandparents Giovan Piero and Emma Ducci opened a bottega (small shop), which became a Perfumery.

At the beginning of the 60's, the business continued with his daughter Irma who, thanks to her style, turned the original business into a prestigious boutique. That is where Silvia Martinelli was born, the creator of Giardini di Toscana’s designer perfumes, a line conceived as the combination of craftsmanship and innovation, through the use of the most refined raw materials, which are processed by using ancient and fascinating techniques.

BRANDING & DESIGN

Giardini di Toscana is a line of designer perfumes made in Italy, which is fully established as "niche perfumery". Our creations always stem from emotions, memories, styles, which arise from pure passion, rather than being deliberately conceived for mere marketing purposes. Giardini di Toscana is the result of a natural evolution applied to the creativity of a family-run business, the satisfaction of a long brooding desire, the expression of harmony between people who share the same passions, a form of artistic expression that complements other similar expressions. The perfumes originate from many different stories and each creation is absolutely original, peculiar, distinctive and matches unique personalities.

These fragrances draw attention, not because of their intrusiveness or intensity, but thanks to their aesthetic quality and originality, which is why they are suitable for strong personalities, who are not simply trying to conform to current trends. While conventional perfumery tends to impose the same scent on as many different age groups and styles as possible, in order to achieve turnover targets, the niche strives for offering a different and unique fragrance to each individual personality. Empathy between the perfume and the consumer is absolutely paramount and the assistance provided in finding the right combination is the real added value that guarantees customer loyalty over time.

Therefore, the niche creates innovation and identifies products and fragrances that meet the customer demand regardless of current trends, so as to guarantee a return on the long term. The keyword for the Giardini di Toscana line is "eco-luxury": luxury products based on organic and environmentally sustainable ingredients, with a great natural value. Today, the topic of sustainability is so important that it is not only a trend anymore but a real must. Translating eco-luxury into a perfume is the real mission for Giardini di Toscana’s fragrances.

ACCESSORIES

Many other cosmetics, candles and other home accessories will be launched soon.

MARKETING & SALES 

Giardini di Toscana (GdT) started as a line of designer perfumes, initially intended to be marketed locally, in the family boutique of our “creative nose”, Silvia Martinelli. To be more precise, the Irma Perfumery is located in the Casentino valley in Tuscany, between Florence and Arezzo, surrounded by the Casentino Forests National Park. The resounding success achieved with our Tuscan customers led GdT to evolve from a luxury designer craftsmanship to a real brand, which is now ready to position itself in the niche perfumery sector at a national level.

After the local B2C, the national B2B business took off, thanks to some well-known sales agents in the perfumery and cosmetics sector, who had discovered GdT precisely at the Irma Perfumery in Bibbiena and placed their orders. The third fundamental step in the growth of the brand was initiated by groups of enthusiasts and their forums on social networks. After we began to sell in some well-known niche perfumeries in Italy, people started to talk about GdT perfumes on a number of forums, in particular in the Facebook group "Adjiumi".

The desire of thousands of perfume lovers and connoisseurs to discover this new brand led to numerous reviews, all extremely positive. Later, celebrities and influencers also paid homage to us with advertisements and stories on the main social networks.

Now, GdT decided to focus on two main goals for 2021:

MEDIA

Giardini di Toscana pays big attention to Social Media Marketing and only plans to strengthen its position in order to increase brand awareness.
