Qvinto Elemento

QVINTO ELEMENTO is an artistic perfume brand from Basilicata, in southern Italy, born from the vision of Giuseppe Pandolfi. The name refers to Aether, the fifth element of the ancients, which the house sees as an invisible bridge between earth and spirit. Its focus is not trends but ties to the land, memory, and what stays with us of people even after they are gone.

Basilicata is more than a backdrop. The brand describes it as a land of silence, fire and wind, where nature still keeps something primordial, and says it works with selected raw materials. One distinctive touch is the packaging: each bottle sits inside a 3D-printed case, designed as a small collectible object.

The debut, in 2025, was Ubi tu, ibi ego, an extrait de parfum named after the ancient Latin wedding vow: where you are, there I am. It was followed by Quod Manet, "what remains", a green, earthy, balsamic fragrance inspired by the old villages of the Pollino area and the smell of the ground after rain. The third title in the collection is Quod Movet.

At Spezieri, an official retailer, you will find all three fragrances in 50 ml and as 2 ml samples. With a brand this young it makes sense to try on skin first, including at our shop in Treviso.
