Maria Callas wins at DUFTSTARS Austria 2025 : a tribute to timeless elegance

We are proud to announce that Maria Callas, the first official fragrance dedicated to the legendary soprano, has been awarded in the Artistic Independent Perfumes category at the DUFTSTARS Austria 2025 – a prestigious honor that recognizes creativity, individuality, and excellence in perfumery.

This year’s ceremony held special meaning, as it marked the 10th anniversary of the DUFTSTARS Austria Awards. A decade of celebrating the most outstanding olfactory creations was crowned by an unforgettable evening, during which the visionaries behind these fragrances took the stage and were applauded for their passion and artistry.

For The Merchant of Venice, this award celebrates more than just a fragrance – it pays tribute to an icon. Created for the 100th anniversary of Maria Callas’ birth, this Eau de Parfum reflects the Divina’s unforgettable charm and contrasts: radiant yet deep, refined yet powerful. Its sophisticated blend of floral, chypre, and amber notes captures her essence with elegance and modernity.

We extend our heartfelt thanks to the Fragrance Foundation Austria, to our creative teams and partners, and to all fragrance lovers who continue to support and believe in our mission to elevate perfumery as a true art form.
