Acca Kappa is an Italian manufacturer, but one with an International mission from its very beginnings. Founded in 1869 in Treviso, in the Veneto region, it still today operates out of its original 1904 building in the same city.

Continuity of operations through time is in fact a guarantee of serious purpose, and the individuals who head the company take full responsibility for all decisions. Each material is carefully chosen within a product philosophy that is in fact a philosophy of life-respect for people and for the environment and well-being for the individual and for the group.

The guiding principle of manufacturing is "soft technology" at the service of a renewed interest in the "simplicity of things". This means giving priority to natural materials such as wood, rubber, bristles, vegetable fibers, Mediterranean sponges and aluminum. The wood, whether it is common beech or Makassar ebony, comes from plants that have been reforested, and normally the wood is not varnished but is given its only finishing touches by hand.

Where it is inappropriate to use natural materials, other raw materials are used that respect environmental concerns and the intrinsic quality of the product. This same consideration is true for biodegradable cellulose acetate, used for a new line of brushes called "Bioceta", and also for methacrylate, a superb and resilient plastic used for a line of brushes and accessories of the highest quality.
 

White Moss,with its fresh notes and lingering Mediterranean harmonies that mingle beautifully, White Moss seduces women with an enchanting, sophisticated line of cosmetic products specially formulated to respect their fine, delicate skin.The exclusive Acca Kappa fragrance created with essential oils of lavender and juniper. This fragrance evokes sweet, warm and sensual notes with a slight perfume of wood, amber and moss.

Man discovered the beauty and body care benefits of cedar oil long ago, blending the strongaromatic properties in ancient perfumes, incense and cosmetics.Today, Acca Kappa has selected this same powerful ingredient of antiquity, the essential oil of cedar wood, to create a new fragance that is fresh and seductive. It contains essential oils of cedar wood, cardamum, lemon, petitgrain, bergamot, cloves and sage. Cedar expresses the allure of masculinity, its courage and its strength.

 

1869, an elegant and distinctly masculine fragrance characterised by the warm notes of a leather accord. A heady cocktail of cardamom and geranium brings freshness to the fragrance and compliments the dynamic notes of iris and violet leaves. Amber and vanilla reflect a man's warmth and sense of sensuality.
