Onda Eau de Parfum by Vero Profumo is a Woody Spicy fragrance for women and men. The nose behind this fragrance is Vero Kern. Top notes are Passionfruit, Ginger, Citron, Basil, Coriander, Bergamot and Mandarin Orange; middle notes are White Honey, Ylang-Ylang and Iris; base notes are Vetyver, Patchouli, Musk and Virginia Cedar. Vero Profumo launched onda eau de parfum in March 2010. The fragrance with the same name, onda, in extrait de parfum created in May 2007. Onda in Italian means "wave"."The new perfumes are not the diluted version of the extracts. An eau de parfum needs a structure highlighting more the top notes as opposed to the base notes, but with the aim of keeping the original style of the extract intact".In order to render the scents lighter and easier to wear, the compositions have been simplified; yet that "je ne sais quoi" unmistakably characterizing the extracts is still clearly there. "I replaced the animalic notes with the unique scent of the passionfruit – says Vero Kern – I personally love it very much and think that it lends a sensual and erotic lightness to the composition". Like an invisible thread, the intriguing scent of passionfruit links the three perfumes: it is at the core of everchanging, unexpected olfactory sensations with multifaceted evolutions.Vero added passionfruit in the top, and slightly changed the base notes (cedar instead of sandalwood).

How It Wears
A Signature Fragrance

Vetyver
Vetiver is an aromatic grass native to India but now cultivated widely in Haiti, Java, and Reunion. Its scent is richly woody, reminiscent of freshly turned soil and dry hay, with subtle hints of smokiness and sweetness. This earthy essence transforms compositions into complex narratives of nature.

Patchouli
Patchouli emanates from the leaves of Pogostemon cablin, a bush native to Southeast Asia. Its scent is deeply woody with hints of musty earth, warm spices, and a subtle sweetness that can be both comforting and complex. This versatile note has been a staple in perfumery for decades, often used to evoke feelings of nostalgia and grounding.

Musk
Musk, once sourced from the musk deer and now often recreated synthetically, offers an earthy, slightly sweet aroma reminiscent of skin. Its versatility allows it to blend seamlessly into various fragrance families, from oriental to woody, enhancing their depth without overpowering them.
