Launched in 2021, Bergamotto di Calabria La Spugnatura by Acqua di Parma is an ode to the vibrant essence of bergamot. The fragrance captures the freshness and vitality of a field of bergamots, with each note delicately orchestrated to enhance its bright fullness. Top notes of bergamot, orange, grapefruit, and mandarin orange exude succulent fruity accents, while the heart reveals mineral intonations and floral sweetness through geranium and fennel. The olfactory experience evolves in a surprising sensorial journey that expands the robustness of bergamot.

Application Tips
Apply two sprays to the pulse points — it opens immediately but takes about half an hour for the base notes to fully emerge. This fragrance leans towards a close-to-skin application, where its aromatic nuances are most pronounced.
