ORTIGIA

Founded in Sicily in 2006 by Sue Townsend, Ortigia is a luxury soap and fragrance house that captures the tropical, baroque essence of Italy’s most historic region. The brand takes its name from a small island at the edge of ancient Siracusa and draws inspiration from the uniquely rich, layered culture of southeastern Sicily. Every product—from olive oil-based soaps to distilled perfumes—is formulated using natural ingredients indigenous to the island and crafted by small, family-owned ateliers. With its highly decorative aesthetic that celebrates exotic Sicilian motifs, Ortigia brings a vibrant, Mediterranean warmth to the daily beauty routine.
