La Dolce Vita Di Bacchus is inspired by The Youth of Bacchus, William Bouguereau's painting (1884) in which the young god of wine dances amid a procession of satyrs and nymphs. Argos makes it a hymn to pleasure, from the processions of ancient Rome to the Italian dolce vita.

Rum, coffee, juniper, cistus and pink pepper open the celebration. The heart brings together davana, fenugreek and jasmine, sweet and warm, before a balsamic, woody base of styrax, benzoin, nagarmotha, sandalwood and musk. A boozy gourmand, as an extrait de parfum.

La Dolce Vita Di Bacchus in detail

Argos makes each fragrance the story of an ancient legend. La Dolce Vita Di Bacchus, presented as an extrait, evokes the procession of Bacchus, god of wine and revelry: a warm, liqueur-like fragrance built around rum, coffee and a honeyed davana. The house does not publish its family: Volute classes it among gourmands.

The official pyramid opens on rum, coffee, juniper berries, labdanum and pink pepper. The heart pairs davana, fenugreek, with its maple-syrup accents, and jasmine. The base brings together styrax, benzoin, cypriol, sandalwood and musk.

La Dolce Vita Di Bacchus is worn in the evening, in autumn and winter: a party, a dinner, a long winter evening. It is a fragrance best kept for those who love rich compositions.

Three gourmand fragrances in our catalogue come close: Triumph of Bacchus Extrait, from the same house, shares rum, jasmine, sandalwood and musk; Bitter Peach by Tom Ford brings together davana, labdanum and sandalwood around peach; Enigma Pour Homme by Roja Parfums pairs jasmine, sandalwood and benzoin with cognac.
