The story behind the bottle.
Erea, launched by Bvlgari in 2020 and crafted by Alberto Morillas, is an Oriental Spicy fragrance that embodies the rich warmth of vanilla and spices. The composition opens with a bright note of cardamom, which quickly gives way to the resinous depth of olibanum (frankincense). At its core lies Madagascar vanilla, providing a sweet and balsamic heart that anchors the entire scent. This fragrance is neither overly sweet nor overpowering; instead, it strikes a balance between warmth and aromatic freshness.
Apply Erea to pulse points for a subtle yet lasting warmth. The fragrance blooms best when worn close to the skin; avoid layering heavily as it can become overly sweet in large quantities. It pairs well with cooler weather but is versatile enough for milder climates.
