The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Goldea by Bvlgari was launched in 2015 and crafted by the renowned perfumer Alberto Morillas. This fragrance is a harmonious blend of sweet and white florals with woody and musky notes, creating an opulent yet delicate scent. The composition opens with raspberry and bergamot before transitioning into orange blossom, jasmine, and ylang-ylang. A warm base of amber, patchouli, and musk provides depth and longevity. Goldea is a proof of Bvlgari's Italian elegance, blending modernity with lasting appeal.

How to wear it

Apply Goldea sparingly to pulse points — the sweet florals and musky base notes are designed for close-up wear. It blooms over time, so a light touch ensures it lasts from day into night without overpowering.
