The Story

Launched in 2019, Osmanthus Eau de Parfum by Acqua di Parma is a floral and fruity composition that captures the essence of Italian elegance. The fragrance opens with bright notes of neroli and green mandarin, providing a fresh and zesty beginning. This gives way to a heart of peony and osmanthus, creating a delicate balance between floral sweetness and subtle spiciness. The base notes of ambrette (musk mallow), pink pepper, and patchouli add warmth and depth, grounding the scent in a musky embrace.

Application Tips

Apply Osmanthus Eau de Parfum in light sprays — it blooms gradually on the skin. The fresh citrus notes are most prominent initially but will settle into a warm musky base over time. It's best for daytime wear, as the floral and fruity notes shine brightest during the early hours.
