The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2006 by Profumum Roma, Acqua Viva is a Woody Aromatic fragrance that captures the essence of fresh, invigorating air and subtle woodsy notes. Perfumed by Felice Durante, Luciano Durante, and Maria Durante, it opens with bright citrus and aromatic herbs before settling into a warm woody base with hints of yellow florals. The composition is designed to be both crisp and comforting, making it suitable for any time of day.

How to wear it

One to two sprays are sufficient for this fragrance. The citrus top notes fade within an hour but leave behind a lingering warmth from the woody base. Best worn during daytime or early evening events where its fresh yet comforting profile can shine.
