The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2023 by Lorenzo Pazzaglia, Sweet Xplosion is a fragrance that explores the tension between sweetness and warmth. The opening notes of white honey and coconut milk create an immediate sense of indulgence, while lime and grapefruit add a refreshing counterpoint. As it develops, davana and ylang-ylang introduce a subtle floral complexity before settling into a base of vanilla, coffee, tonka bean, and musk that feels both comforting and sensuous.

How to wear it

Apply Sweet Xplosion to pulse points for an intimate experience that stays close to your skin. The opening citrus notes are bright but fade quickly, so it's best enjoyed up close rather than broadcast across a room.
