Acqua di Parma Signatures of the Sun ~ new fragrances

Posted by Robin on 20 July 2019 4 Comments

Italian niche line Acqua di Parma has launched Signatures of the Sun, a new collection of ten fragrances. Five are re-releases from the Ingredients collection (Oud, Leather, Sándalo, Ambra and Quercia) and five are new (Camelia, Osmanthus, Sakura, Vaniglia and Yuzu).

Camelia ~ Citrus floral. "The delicate scent of the camellia meets the vibrant notes of citrus in a sophisticated fragrance inspired by East Asia's precious oriental rose." Additional notes include bergamot, mandarin, pink pepper, cardamom, clary sage, benzoin and musk.

Osmanthus ~ Fruity floral. "Osmanthus is a sun-filled interpretation of the flower's deep and sensual notes. The intense and lively fragrance combines the richness of the osmanthus flower with green mandarin and neroli oil. An artistic combination that takes you to the rock forests of South East Asia where the elusive flower blooms with a rich and powerful fragrance." Additional notes include peony, pink pepper, ambrette and patchouli.

Sakura (shown) ~ Citrus floral. "The richness of the sakura flower is recreated and combined with notes of bergamot, pink pepper and jasmine sambac in a fragrance that evokes the spectacle of blossoming cherry trees. The exquisite and fascinating notes of the tiny and fragile flower are sublimed by our signature vibrant citrus notes for an unforgettable artistic combination." Additional notes include mandarin and musk.

Vaniglia ~ Citrus oriental. [Designated as new, but probably a re-release of the 2018 Vaniglia.] "Vaniglia is a sun-filled interpretation of vanilla's intriguing and fascinating notes. The sweet essence of vanilla is extracted from the pods and combined with notes of bergamot, mandarin, neroli and jasmine sambac for an enveloping and warm composition. An artistic combination celebrating Madagascar's precious essence." Additional notes include heliotrope, cedar and musk.

Yuzu ~ Citrus floral. "Considered as the rarest fruit of Japan, the yuzu fruit is now the newest of Acqua di Parma's "frutti d'oro". The fragrance brings together yuzu's bittersweet aroma with our signature citrus notes. The sparkling and energising fragrance combines the freshness of the yuzu with notes of bergamot, lotus, mimosa, violet leaves, and jasmine." Additional notes include Sichuan pepper, musk, licorice and sandalwood.

The Acqua di Parma Signatures of the Sun fragrances are available in 20, 100 and 180 ml Eau de Parfum.

    Thank you, Robin, I’m always happy when AdP releases something so it’s embarrassment of riches, but I have had one negative experience with the line recently at the counter: Ambra which smelled awful to me and lasted forever. Osmanthus and Yuzu in particular appeal very much.

      I think these are aimed at the Asian market, and I have no idea how widely they will be distributed (?) At John Lewis at the moment they seem to have only Sakura of the new ones.
