ABOUT THE FRAGRANCE
-
"I had these obsessive thoughts and desires that I tried to control, but I couldn't. I was completely possessed.
I didn't kill because I was angry with them, not because I hated them - I killed because I wanted to keep them with me.
And as my obsession grew, I began to preserve parts of their bodies - skulls and skeletons."
Between 1978 and 1991, Jeffrey Dahmer murdered seventeen men.
He lured them with calmness and gentleness, then drugged them, took their lives, and preserved them. Some he drew, others he photographed. He tried to keep them forever.
In court he declared: "I didn't act out of hatred."
He said he had done it for love - out of the uncontrollable need to possess, to never be abandoned, to hold on to what would otherwise disappear.
In that obsession, something paranormal was born: the coexistence of two presences within one body, two natures inseparable and at war.
It is within that suspended space that Jeffrey is born - the second fragrance in the world dedicated to a serial killer, and the second chapter of Spiritica's Crime Collection.
A perfume that investigates duality, the divided mind, and the tension between light and darkness.
The composition was born from a shared vision.
Alongside founder Daniele Muratori Caputo, perfumers Paolo Cerizza and Lorenzo Orlandi Berti collaborated in crafting a complex and disquieting olfactory equilibrium, where coldness and sweetness alternate like mental states.
The opening is sharp, cold, almost clinical: iced beer, popper accord, white orange, live yeast, acidic aldehydes.
It’s the scent of everyday life before it fractures - the deceptive calm of a clean room, the moment before the fall.
The heart opens like a wound that breathes: dirty carpet, carnation, coagulated blood, human sweat, sharp blade.
The air becomes heavy, almost solid.
It is the smell of a mind cracking apart, of the paranormal echo that lingers, of presences floating beyond time - a world where reality and hallucination coexist, where body and soul dissolve into one another.The base is the sweetest confession: melted plastic, damp cellar, amber, birch, vetiver.
It's the unsettling caress of a toxic love, the promise that refuses to fade, the tenderness that turns into obsession.
A fragrance that grips the skin like a memory unwilling to die.
A special mention goes to Lorenzo and his team at Only the Dreamers, who created a one-of-a-kind cap with an extraordinary flocked and laser-engraved finish - an exclusive texture that reproduces the very carpet of Jeffrey’s apartment.
Jeffrey is an extreme olfactory work.
A story of attraction and annihilation, of tenderness and madness.
A perfume that does not merely evoke - it breathes, it lingers, it possesses.
It is not a commercial product.
It is an artistic creation - free and deliberate - that uses the language of scent as a medium of storytelling and introspection.
Like a film or a book, Jeffrey narrates, provokes, and invites reflection.
It is a wearable work of art, a fragment of disturbed and painfully real humanity transformed into sensory experience.
For the historical and conceptual development of this fragrance, the founder also collaborated with Daniela Cavallo, a law graduate and criminologist, who contributed to defining the behavioral profile of the killer and the narrative structure of the project.
As she herself states:
"Perfume becomes a dialogue between emotional and narrative stimulus - an artistic work that explores the human soul and its contradictions."
"Dahmer evokes very particular and unconventional notes. It is a narcotic fragrance, cold yet capable of awakening, at the same time, a sense of warmth - the embrace of a man."
After his capture, Jeffrey Dahmer pleaded completely guilty.
He chose to cooperate with investigators and asked the judge for the death penalty - a sentence that was not imposed, as it was not permitted in that state. -
