Italian niche line Acqua di Parma has launched Mandarino di Sicilia, the latest addition to the brand's Blu Mediterraneo series. A numbered limited edition, Mandarino Millesimato 2022, will also be introduced this year.

Blu Mediterraneo Mandarino di Sicilia is a fragrance inspired by Sicily's sun-drenched landscapes, where architecture and culture merge with nature's splendor, encapsulating the Italian Arte di Vivere as a state of mind. The fragrance blends fresh, green notes of mandarin with a heart of Italian citrus, creating a lively and refreshing sensation. Crafted from precious green mandarins that are harvested early to capture their vibrant, green olfactory tones, Mandarino di Sicilia is a luminous fragrance brimming with the Mediterranean sun.

The fragrance opens with the invigorating aroma of green mandarin, sparkling with an effervescent blend of bergamot, lemon, and juicy blood orange. This combination wraps the scent in the brightness of a Sicilian summer, radiating intense emerald nuances and a lively freshness. In its heart, the green hue of the mandarin meets the freshness of the notes of petit-grain and spearmint in a blend that extends the fragrance's longevity. The cedarwood base note completes this green sensation, while the musk note adds a clean, sophisticated brilliance.

Additional notes include patchouli.

Acqua di Parma Mandarino di Sicilia is available now at Saks Fifth Avenue, in 100 ($212) and 180 ($278) ml Eau de Toilette.
