The story behind the bottle.
Blu Mediterraneo Foglie di Basilico by Acqua di Parma was launched in 1999 as a fresh and aromatic expression of Italian elegance. This fragrance opens with a vibrant burst of basil, creating an invigorating green and herbal freshness that is both crisp and spicy. The heart notes of this composition add a layer of warmth without overpowering the initial zesty clarity, making it a harmonious blend of freshness and depth. Acqua di Parma, known for its storied history dating back to 1916, has always embodied Italian chic — Blu Mediterraneo Foglie di Basilico captures that spirit with an aromatic complexity that feels both modern and lasting.
This fragrance has moderate longevity and sillage, so apply it liberally on pulse points to ensure that its fresh and aromatic notes are noticeable throughout the day. It's best worn during cooler weather or in well-ventilated spaces to fully appreciate its crispness without feeling overwhelming.
