The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Mirto di Panarea Limited Edition, launched by Acqua di Parma in 2021 and crafted by perfumer François Demachy, captures the essence of a Mediterranean island. The fragrance opens with myrtle, Italian lemon, and bergamot, creating an aromatic and fresh spicy accord that feels like a cool sea breeze. As it evolves, basil and jasmine add depth, while juniper and virginian cedar lend earthy warmth to the woody base. This composition is a harmonious blend of freshness and warmth, reflecting the natural beauty of Panarea.

How to wear it

Apply this fragrance to pulse points — it blooms beautifully over an hour. The fresh top notes dissipate quickly, giving way to a warm, woody base that lasts well into the evening.

François Demachy

Dior's guardian of dreams

François Demachy is the in-house perfumer-creator at Christian Dior, a title that places him among the most influential noses in the world. Born in Cannes and raised in Grasse — the historic capital of perfumery — he carries the craft in his blood.

“Early on, I memorised a whole host of notes without even realising it. I could recognise moss and flowers. My nose educated itself.”
