Bvlgari

Bvlgari is an Italian luxury house founded in 1884 by Sotirios Voulgaris, a jeweler originally from Greece who learned his trade there before settling in Rome. The name is his surname rendered in classical Latin lettering, the V standing in for U, a stylistic choice adopted in 1934 that nods to his Greek origins. From a celebrated jewelry maker the brand has grown to include watches, leather goods, accessories, hotels, and fragrance, with its first scent, Eau Parfumee au The Vert, arriving in 1992.

This selection shows a softer, more refined side of the house, built on patchouli and powder with a cool thread of iris and a base of woods. Chinese patchouli gives it earthy depth while a touch of peach lends quiet sweetness, the kind of composition that feels elegant rather than loud. Reach for Splendida Patchouli Tentation to experience this polished, jeweler's approach to scent. Bvlgari brings the precision of a fine-jewelry house to the bottle.
