THE TODAY PROJECT PERFUMES
Where Cosmetic Science, Architecture and Memory Become Fragrance.
Fine fragrance developed through a deliberately restricted palette. Created as an evolving olfactive work — and made to be refilled.
The Collections
Each collection explores a different dimension of the same olfactive universe: perception, memory, space and matter. They are chapters of an evolving work shaped by architecture, personal experience and formulation science.
COLLECTION 1
ECHOES OF LIGHT
An olfactive study of light through the hours of the day.
Architecture taught me that space does not exist without light. Light reveals volume, creates shadow, changes proportion and transforms the way we experience a place. Seven fragrances interpret seven moments of light — from dawn to twilight.
n01. TUBEROSE DAWN
Tuberose · Jasmine · Amber Woods
Tuberose, White Flowers, Jasmine, Amber Woods, Musk
A tribute to the love and beauty that bloom at the start of each day.
It’s a romantic story written in the aromatic notes of nature, where seductive, creamy tuberose meets the radiant sweetness of orange blossom and jasmine, all grounded in the deep warmth of amber woods and musk.
DAWN
n04. CITRUS AUREA
Cardamom · Bergamot · Guaiac Wood
Cardamom, Bergamot, Guaiac Wood, Patchouli, Creamy Musk
Spicy cardamom, fresh green leaves, and bright Calabria bergamot create a vibrant opening, evoking the first whispers of dusk. Its luminous heart of green violet leaves, aquatic notes, and sweet fig adds a delicate balance of freshness and sweetness, reminiscent of nature at its most serene. Finally, a warm base of guaiac wood, earthy patchouli, and creamy musk envelops you in a refined and captivating finish.
AUREA
n02. GERANIUM ZENITH
Geranium · Lemon · Neroli · Cedar
Geranium, Lemon, Petitgrain, Neroli, Fresh Musk, Cedarwood
The essence of the serenity of a perfect day, where the vibrant freshness of lemon, petitgrain, and Madagascar geranium merges with citrusy and floral neroli and fresh marine accords.
At the base, fresh musks deliver a sense of purity, while cedar adds a warm, enveloping touch.
ZENITH
n05. ETHEREAL SUNSET
Coconut Milk · Vanilla · Sandalwood
Coconut Milk, Tonka Bean, Vanilla Pods, Sandalwood, Cedarwood
From the very first moment, notes of coffee, juicy plum, and coconut milk awaken the senses, evoking a sun-drenched landscape. At its heart, a comforting blend of cinnamon bark, tonka bean, vanilla, and sandalwood recalls the softness of Monoi and the tiaré flower.
SUNSET
n03. ALMOND SUNSHINE
Amaretto · Almond · Coffee · Tonka
Amaretto, Coffee, Almond, Caramel, Vanilla, Tonka Bean
A golden Tuscan summer where almond warmth and amaretto sweetness melt into light. Almond Sunshine is born from summers in Tuscany—long, warm afternoons where time seemed to slow down. Gathered around the table, desserts would arrive… followed by sweet liqueurs. The scent of amaretto—rich, enveloping, slightly toasted—became a lasting memory.
SUNSHINE
n06. FIG DUSK
Fig · Orange · Sandalwood · Musk
Orange, Fig, Fig Milk, White Musk, Driftwood, Sandalwood
A journey into the magical transition of twilight, when the last rays of sunlight give way to the calm of the night. Fresh notes of orange, bergamot, and citrus open the fragrance, leading you to a heart of fig, white flowers, coconut water, and a hint of ginger. A warm base of cedarwood, fig milk, and white musk lingers, evoking serene, refined, and timeless elegance.
DUSK
n07. BERGAMOT TWILIGHT
Bergamot · Green Pepper · White Musk
Green Pepper, Bergamot, Verdant Notes, White Musk
Inspired by the moment when day merges with twilight, this fragrance recreates the fleeting beauty of sunset.

TWILIGHT
COLLECTION 2
MEMORIES
Some scents are remembered before they are understood.
Each fragrance begins with something real: a place, a gesture, a person, a ritual, a smell I remember. These are fragments of mine. You may find some of yours inside them.
n08. PIÑA PA’ LA NIÑA
Pineapple · Davana · Jasmine · Oud · Patchouli.
Pineapple, Davana, Caramel, Jasmine, Oud, Patchouli
A joyful, sun-drenched tropical fragrance inspired by the carefree spirit of the Caribbean. Juicy pineapple, exotic fruits, radiant florals, and a warm base of vanilla, amber, and precious woods come together in a scent that captures endless summers, first loves, and nights that fade into sunrise.

A LIVING COLLECTION
The Beauty of Restriction
Under the creative direction of architect and cosmetic formulator Paola Gugliotta, every fragrance begins with a place, a memory or an emotion. Architectural thinking shapes its structure: proportion and balance transform each idea into a distinctive olfactive composition.
Created with renowned perfumers, every formula is developed from the outset within a deliberately restricted palette. Materials are assessed for their olfactive contribution, toxicological profile, traceability and available environmental data. The fragrance and its refillable bottle are conceived as one enduring object—made to be experienced, remembered, refilled and kept.

THE ART & SCIENCE OF PERFUME
Crafted with intention.
At The Today Project, perfume is developed as a complete system: olfactive creation with renowned perfumers, formulation science through a deliberately restricted palette, and refillable design made for permanence.
Our restrictions are part of the creative brief—proof that technical rigour can expand, rather than limit, olfactive expression.
FORMULATION SCIENCE
Every fragrance is developed through our Beauty of Restriction standard. From the beginning, the perfumer works with a deliberately limited palette that excludes CMR 1A, 1B and 2 substances, SVHCs, DEP, polycyclic musks and other materials of concern. Technical restriction becomes part of the creative process, not an adjustment made afterwards.
OLFACTIVE CREATION
Creative direction by Paola Gugliotta, with compositions developed alongside renowned perfumers including Mark Buxton, Marc Daniel Heimgartner and Urs Castelletti. Each fragrance begins with an independent olfactive idea—not with a trend, a category or a marketing template.

FAQ - PERFUMES COLLECTION. PERSONAL FRAGRANCES
-
We use a considered combination of natural-origin, nature-identical and synthetic aroma materials. Each material is selected for its olfactive performance, safety profile, traceability and environmental considerations—not simply for whether it is natural or synthetic.
-
We work with our Beauty of Restriction Standards : our internal formulation standard excludes CMR 1A, 1B and 2 substances, SVHCs, DEP, polycyclic musks and other materials of concern. It also applies additional precautionary screening to substances identified as potential endocrine disruptors by relevant European authorities.
-
Our fragrance formulas are developed without intentionally added DEP or other phthalates.
-
It’s not about being “synthetic” — it’s about safety. Every molecule, natural or lab-made, is selected under strict dermatological and eco-toxicological standards.
-
Unscrew the pump and pour the fragrance refill into the glass bottle using the supplied funnel. The removable system allows the bottle and pump to be kept and reused.
-
The bottle is made from refillable glass, with an FSC-certified wooden cap and natural cork interior. The secondary packaging is plastic-free. Some functional components inside the reusable pump may require technical materials, but they are designed to be kept rather than discarded with every refill.
-
We develop perfume as a complete system: independent olfactive compositions created with renowned perfumers, formulation science guided by our Beauty of Restriction standard, and refillable design made for permanence.
-
Because “natural” isn’t always safe or sustainable. We focus on clean, responsible ingredients — regardless of origin — that protect skin and planet.
-
Biodegradability is a core formulation criterion. We evaluate available ingredient data and the complete formula rather than assuming that natural automatically means biodegradable.
-
Yes. Our perfumes are formulated without animal-derived ingredients.
-
It’s a fragrance that respects both skin and planet: safe, biodegradable formulas and packaging designed to be reused, refilled, and fully recyclable.
-
Longevity depends on the fragrance’s concentration, structure and materials—not simply on whether its ingredients are natural or synthetic.
