The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Prima Donna by Sospiro Perfumes, launched in 2022 and crafted by Christian Provenzano, is a fragrance that captures the essence of bold confidence and refined sensuality. The composition opens with cherry and fruity notes, creating an initial burst of sweetness that transitions into a heart of rose, jasmine, and lily-of-the-valley. This floral bouquet gives way to a base of leather, amber, musk, and cedar, adding warmth and depth. Prima Donna is neither traditionally masculine nor feminine but rather unisex in its appeal, making it a versatile choice for those who appreciate complexity.

How to wear it

Prima Donna's initial burst of cherry and fruity notes fades within an hour, so aim for a slightly heavier application to ensure the rich base notes are fully present. It works best in cooler settings as the warmth of the leather and amber can feel too heavy during warmer weather.
