Oxford

Hardly any men's shoe model is as widespread as the Oxford, especially when it comes to festive occasions and the big entrance. A particularly classic shoe model, traditional, and above all in black, it is the perfect shoe for a suit. It owes its name to the students of Oxford University, who made this model popular in the middle of the 19th century; at a time when boots set the tone, they defied conventions with low shoes. The rebellious spirit is no longer apparent in this model today; on the contrary, it embodies timeless traditional elegance like no other. Like a reflection of light on black polished shoes, citrus notes of bitter grapefruit and sweet orange rise above the pepper heart of "Oxford". Aromatic, sparkling, spicy-hot pepper combines with pink pepper, which adds its own signature. Slightly fruity accents are reminiscent of roses, which in turn is underlined by the green and rose-like nuances of geranium. The base comes up with fine woods like cedar and sandalwood, accentuated by vetiver, some patchouli and benzoin. "Oxford" by Roberto Ugolini stands for withdrawn, naturally worn class, for the noble that does not make much of a fuss of itself. Pure understatement!
