A bit of history
1881 is the year of the beginning of the brand's history. 136 years ago, the Cerruti brothers - Stefano, Antonio and Quintano - founded a small textile production in the Italian town of Biella. The cashmere, tweed and wool produced were famous for their properties - naturalness, softness, wear resistance.

Creation of the main idea of the brand, opening of stores
In the early 60s, Nino Cerruti developed the concept of a style direction - ready-made luxury clothing for the mass consumer. This idea formed the basis of all the activities of the brand.
In 1967, the company opened its first branded boutique in Paris, the fashion capital of the world. In the same year, a line of classic-style men's clothing appears.

The rapid fall of the brand and the next rise
Since 2000, a black streak of bad luck begins for Cerruti. First, investors from the Fin.part SpA group buy out the company. In 2002, a fashion collection of the house was released, which critics called "unsuccessful and leading to the end of history." Fin.part SpA declares itself bankrupt five years later.
After these events, the brand is bought by an American company. The business of the company is starting to go uphill. New designers appear, clothing collections are produced, the brand takes part in Paris Fashion Week, boutiques are being renovated, new stores are opening, and the range is expanding.
In 2011, the management announced the termination of the production of women's clothing, but the brand did not lose its female audience. The brand offers jewelry, glasses, shoes, watches, and many other accessories to the beautiful half of humanity.
The Cerruti brand has seen a lot during its history, which lasts more than a century: dizzying ups, terrible falls, change of designers, ideological crisis. But the brand managed not to lose the main thing - only its inherent charm and style, which allows you to create unique, high-quality things.

An elegant scent, it contains accords of delicate flowers (mimosa, lily of the valley, rose, geranium, iris), tart orange, trail sandalwood, amber and enveloping cedar with wood. The mystery of the scent is that it cannot be described. It is neither sweet, nor fresh, nor spicy. It has all the notes, but they are harmoniously intertwined, creating a unique sound.
