The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Buongiorno Gioco del Destino by Acqua di Parma is a new fragrance that embodies the brand's signature Italian elegance. Launched in 2026, it opens with bright citrus and fruity notes, creating an immediate sense of freshness and vitality. The musky and powdery base adds warmth and depth, grounding the composition in a subtle sweetness that feels both familiar and inviting.

How to wear it

Given its intimate sillage and poor longevity, Buongiorno Gioco del Destino is best applied throughout the day rather than in one go. Spritz it on your pulse points to keep the scent close to skin where it lingers longest.
