8 Of The Best Bulgari Perfumes For Women
In the fragrance sphere, the Italian luxury house stays true to its jewellery roots with perfumes inspired by precious gems
Bulgari’s legacy for luxury is well-documented throughout its rich and storied history. Founded in 1884, the Italian fashion house quickly became synonymous with Roman craftsmanship and striking designs, offering an array of exquisite jewellery, fine timepieces, accessories, and leather goods.
In 1993, the house expanded into the world of fine fragrances, releasing Eau Parfumée au The Vert. The crisp, refreshing scent is characterised by earthy notes of Japanese green tea, combined with invigorating blends of citrus, warm beeswax and tonka bean.
Now a signature perfume of the brand, the captivating aroma instantly garnered a dedicated following, becoming almost as treasured as its decadent gems. Soon after, the Maison ventured further into the fragrance sphere, using the success of its first perfume as a catalyst for what has now become an illustrious olfactory legacy.
Now with over 100 perfumes in its repertoire, Bulgari perfumes encapsulate elegance in each bottle, with an array of expert blends that range from the fresh, aquatic notes of the Italian Riviera to the woody aromas of balmy summer nights in Milan.
