Bvlgari Erea & Kobraa ~ new fragrances

Posted by Robin on 16 March 2020 7 Comments

Bvlgari has launched two new fragrances in the luxury Le Gemme collection: Erea for women (shown above) and Kobraa for men.

Erea ~ developed by perfumer Alberto Morillas. "Feminine and luxurious, Bvlgari Le Gemme Erea is inspired by Green Agate. Hailing from New Caledonia, this precious stone is named after the Achates river in Sicily and, according to ancient tradition, offers protection and is said to exude a peaceful energy. Therefore, the name Erea, is inspired by the Greek word eirene, which means “peace.” Addictive, warm and feminine, Bvlgari Le Gemme Erea is an Oriental Woody fragrance that opens with spicy top notes of lemony green cardamom, before revealing a beautiful incense heart from Somalia (one of the most exceptional quality) blended with the addiction of an exceptional vanilla from Madagascar."

Kobraa ~ developed by perfumer Jacques Cavallier. "For men, Bvlgari Le Gemme Kobraa conjures the mystery of Snake Jasper, a hard stone that hails from New Zealand. Anciently used as an antidote for snakebites, this stone is a symbol of powerful regeneration and life force. As a scent, Bvlgari Le Gemme Kobraa reveals a timeless masculine freshness thanks to geranium leaf, blended with the spiritual force of smoked incense and the depth of agarwood. Oriental and woody, it is a mysterious, ambery and deep fragrance, possessing a rare intensity that mirrors the legendary and restorative properties of its inspiration, Snake Jasper."

Bvlgari Le Gemme Erea and Kobraa can be found now at Dubai Duty Free, in 100 ml Eau de Parfum.

    I love the bottle too! I looked it up. It is 987 AED which = $268.72. Not as bad as it might have been….

    A very late comment to say that bit about snakebite is hilarious. No stone would be used in New Zealand as an ancient antidote for snakebite – we don’t have any snakes and never have had. Ireland and New Zealand share that happy state 🙂
