Aromatic Citrus

The volatile nature of citrus fruits merges well with the typically ephemeral nature of herbal essences and grassy notes from plants. Herbs especially, popular from the kitchen, like basil, rosemary, sage and estragon, marry perfectly with the tart nature of citrus rind extracts, recalling the traditional Eau de Cologne, where they shine best.

Together they give a glorious lift to the composition which instantly creates a feeling of elation and optimism. If you have smelled Colonia Assoluta by Acqua di Parma you know what we’re talking about. From our catalogue Five (Bruno Fazzolari) is a great example with delicate wisps of herbal touches to enliven further the sunny and and woody heart of the composition.
