BLU MEDITERRANEO BERGAMOTTO

Description

At the top, the fragrance’s freshness comes powerfully through thanks to a pair of sparkling Calabrian citrus fruits: bergamot and citron. Then the scent gradually softens, revealing bergamot’s floral and fruity facets intertwined with subtle notes of cedar wood and red ginger. The base, slightly woody and sustained with benzoin, makes sure the fragrance lasts, but it is still essentially a fresh eau starring bergamot.

A fresh, zesty bergamot-inflected eau… a veritable voyage to Calabria

History

Having previously taken us to Tuscany, Sicily, and Capri… Acqua di Parma’s Blu Mediterraneo range is growing with a sixth tale, composed around Calabria and its celebrated bergamot. Bergamot essential oil is an ingredient that has long been found in perfumery compositions. But for Blu Mediterraneo Bergamotto, Acqua di Parma chose to select a D.O.P. (Denomination of Protected Origin) bergamot certified by the Calabria Region Bergamot Consortium. This essence is obtained from a pairing of two different varieties of bergamot. With Blu Mediterraneo Bergamotto, Acqua di Parma offers a stunning portrayal of Calabria, a region sticking out between two oceans and offering wonderfully wild natural landscapes.

Range

Scented Eau 2 and 4 o.; Body cream 6.8 oz.

Bottle

The sleek, navy blue cylindrical bottle from the Blu Mediterraneo collection has been reprised here, and enhanced with the fragrance’s name ‘Bergamotto di Calabria’ in a green hue reminiscent of the color of the skin of the fruit.
