Acqua di Parma Acqua Nobile Gelsomino ~ new fragrance

Posted by Robin on 16 January 2013 9 Comments

Acqua di Parma Acqua Nobile Gelsomino

Italian niche line Acqua di Parma will launch Acqua Nobile Gelsomino, a new Eau de Toilette version of Acqua di Parma Gelsomino Nobile:

A dazzling fragrance that celebrates the regal freshness of dew drops on jasmine blossoms. Crystal clear notes of bergamot, citron, and mandarin open the fragrance.

A heart of vibrant neroli and petit grain combine with the tender elegance of Calabrain jasmine to enhance its floral green character and create a bright, lingering silage [sic].

Acqua di Parma Acqua Nobile Gelsomino is available now for pre-order at Neiman Marcus, $170 for 125 ml Eau de Toilette.

    When I see neroli, petit grain and jasmine together, I always have high hopes, but they always seems to disappoint me. I need to samble this :)

      I did not love the original Gelsomino so doubt I’ll love this, but you never know. Love the bottle!

    I think all the Aqua di Parmas, although lovely, are absurdly overpriced when you take into account longevity and/or sillage.
    That is just my personal opinion.

      True, although they’re not really alone in that I guess.

    I had to reread this several times.

    So, the original scent is called: Gelsomino Nobile?

    The flanker is called: Acqua Nobile Gelsomino?

    Oh, boy…

      There is a fine line sometimes, but not sure if this is a flanker or just a new concentration. Also possible that they’re starting a new range of lighter scents called “Acqua Nobile” & Gelsomino is just the first (that was my assumption).

    The way they are using jasmine reminds me a little of Eau Sauvage by Christian Dior.
