Acqua di Parma introduces the antique method of La Spugnatura to the Arancia Vaniglia citrus fruit, extracting precious essences that express the fruit in all its depth and richness. The uplifting, sunny notes of lemon and mandarin are contrasted by notes of bitter almond and crisp injections of black pepper that add volume and texture to the creation. A light touch of cedar wood and sensual notes of musk lend the fragrance an enveloping base. Embodying the bittersweet symphony of the Sicilian orange, the fragrance, created by master perfumer Francois Demachy, is an equilibrium of contrasts that unfolds a surprising olfactive experience.

The limited-edition fragrance comes in a precious porcelain bottle, an exceptional masterpiece entirely crafted from a traditional artisanal process. The porcelain bottle and cap are refined through deliberate, intricate, hours-long manual processes. Set in an intense blue colour emblematic of the Blu Mediterraneo collection, obtained by adding cobalt into the mix, the shiny porcelain pieces are then individually decorated by hand with white, orange, and gold motifs.

In Acqua di Parma's Zafferano, the warm and dry notes of saffron are distilled and combined with luminous notes of Italian golden fruits, like gilded sparks dancing with the intense spicy notes to create an unexpected and vibrant sensation.
Italianity meets the ingredient’s origin land, the Middle East in Venice, the historical European gateway along the ancient spice route that represents a metaphorical intersection between East and West, embodying charm and mystery, richness, and dissimulation.
The essence of an intimate, never ostentatious luxury that can only be fully appreciated and understood by those who know their history.
