Bottega Veneta Parco Palladiano ~ new fragrances

Posted by Robin on 27 April 2016 10 Comments

Bottega Veneta Parco Palladiano

Bottega Veneta will launch the Parco Palladiano collection in May. The six luxury unisex fragrances are designed to trace a walk in the gardens of the Villa Capra La Rotonda (designed by Andrea Palladio), near Vicenza. The fragrances were developed by perfumers Michel Almairac, Daniela Andrier and Alexis Dadier.

Parco Palladiano I ~ "a magnolia tree under the morning dew". [Perfumer Michel Almairac. Additional notes include woods, musk and amber.]

Parco Palladiano II ~ cypress leaves. [Perfumer Alexis Dadier. Additional notes include salt, pink pepper, and juniper berries.]

Parco Palladiano III ~ mint and pear tree. [Perfumer Daniela Andrier. Additional notes include grass.]

Parco Palladiano IV ~ azaleas in summer. [Perfumer Alexis Dadier. Additional notes include vanilla and chestnut.]

Parco Palladiano V ~ "an aromatic herb garden in mid-afternoon". [Perfumer Daniela Andrier. Additional notes include rosemary, sage and laurel.]

Parco Palladiano VI ~ wood and roses. [Perfumers Michel Almairac and Mylène Arlan. Additional notes include peony, cinnamon, sandalwood and cedar.]

The Bottega Veneta Parco Palladiano collection will be available in 100 ml Eau de Parfum, €265 each. They will be in limited distribution (Bottega Veneta boutiques, Harrods, Bergdorf Goodman, among others.)

      Could be — we’ll see if they are worth the price!

    Sounds interesting. If only they weren’t so out of reach both by price and distribution

      So far, nearly every (not all! but most) “designer niche” collection has been a disappointment. I am not going to worry if I never try them :-)

    I could easily pop over to Bottega to give these a whiff, but like you Robin, not worth going out of my way for the same old fare just marked up 60%.

      The way I look at it these days, if a new collection like this is fabulous beyond belief, we’ll hear about it, eventually. I used to feel the need to be among the first to try everything, but those days are long gone :-)

    I find the BV brand very appealing – slightly quirky high quality Italian style. But I’m not going to seek these out. If they made a discovery set, like Hermes where you pick 4 x 15ml, I would be much more tempted. I know Robin – preaching to the choir.

    I agree about the discovery set, plus why so many perfumes? Bottega Veneta used to only put out flankers to the original. So many perfumes are out there these days. Years ago, we were lucky to get one new fragrance from a House once every year or two. Now each line has bottles and bottles and it doesn’t seem as exciting or special now. That’s what I like about Aedes de Venustas…one a year.

      I agree! It would be so nice if some of these companies would slow down and put out something unique or just really well done. Maybe some of the non-perfumista general public is not as discerning nowadays as they were years ago? The younger generation didn’t grow up with beautiful chypres and orientals so they don’t have a point of reference to compare the scents being churned out now.
      My guess is that they put out several frags at one time for financial reasons in an attempt to equalize their losses if some flop.

    Between these bottles, the Lalique, and the Aroma M Geisha Vanilla Hinoki, there has been some serious bottle pr0n on NST this week. Good stuff!
