Acqua di Parma is a brand that encapsulates luxury Italian heritage and craftsmanship. Whilst we may not all be able to escape for a break along the sun-kissed Mediterranean coast, fragrance is a way to relive those golden moments and enjoy that rich Italian style and lightness. 

It is the glorious coastline of the Italian Med that has inspired the Blu Mediterraneo scents from Acqua di Parma. The place is a treasure trove for the senses, boasting scenic views, delicious fruits and unspoilt nature. The fragrances of Blu Mediterraneo each share the unmistakable spirit of the Mediterranean. 

The new Chinotto di Liguria is incredibly rare due to the chin otto fruit - light, bittersweet notes that suggest sunlight, waves and nature. The light top notes are enhanced by the chinotto fruit, and the sparkling crispness of mandarin. Jasmine and geranium bloom lie dynamically at the heart and superbly contrast with base notes of musk and patchouli. 

The rakish, shiny, blue glass bottle mirrors the classic and iconic Art Deco lines of the Acqua di Parma Colona bottles and is reminiscent of the deep blue of the sea. 

Available from £66 for 75ml at Acqua Di Parma.
