Story compiled by Grayling Holmes / Photographs compliments of Pisterzi Italian Grooming Arts

While holiday shopping at Plaza Frontenac the other day with my bestie Mary, we wandered into Nieman’s and met this wonderful salesperson named Chante. Although she was a gemologist and working the jewelry counter, I noticed a captivating fragrance flowing from her wafting my way. I asked her what she was wearing; she then escorted us to the adjacent women’s perfume counter, and $350 later my friend was toting a Nieman’s bag with a gift-wrapped box of Parisian perfume. Merry Christmas, Mary! Anyway, since Chante could sell for any department in the store, I asked her if she had ever heard of Pisterzi Italian grooming products. “Yes!” she said, “And they are some of the best, high-end products we offer for men. Maybe Mary can treat you to a Mary Christmas,” she said with a wink. I mentioned that I had recently received some information about the product line. Chante said she could get me some, but only online. Without hesitation, my bestie grabbed her phone and ordered my a gift set online at Nieman’s. Thank you, Mary for spoiling me and giving me a merry Christmas as well.

Pisterzi aims to offer luxury grooming experiences to people who are accustomed to luxury and those who aspire to have upmarket experiences. Pisterzi has a global impact and has ateliers located in Milan and New York City.

Each of the Pisterzi Italian Grooming Art Line products are designed to have multiple functions that cleanse, renew, moisturize, and protect the skin. This allows the brand to commit to their already highly sustainable ethos as consumers can benefit from several skin care treatments from the usage of one product only - making them efficient and with a low environmental impact.

According to research, there is 70% less carbon footprint when buying refillable products. Pisterzi’s products are multifunctional and are designed with 90% to 95% recycled packaging and are easily refillable. The products are also formulated with naturally sourced ingredients from Italy, are nickel-free, and have been dermatologically tested to respect even the most sensible of skins.

Additionally, all products are scented with Pisterzi’s G.ART DNA Fragrance©. The composition opens with sparkling freshness of bergamot, combined with notes of basil and sage, creating a comfortable and clean bouquet of geranium, cypress, and hyssop aroma. Vetiver, cedar woods, and patchouli are also some added scents that provide texture and richness to the unique composition.
