Osmanthus in detail
Osmanthus belongs to the Signatures of the Sun collection of Acqua di Parma, in which each eau de parfum starts from a chosen material. Here it is osmanthus, a small orange flower with apricot and leather facets, prized in Asia. The house files the fragrance among fruity florals.
The official pyramid opens with clear, lively green mandarin and neroli. The heart gathers peony, lightly peppery pink pepper and musky ambrette. Osmanthus only appears in the base, with patchouli, which gives it warmth.
Osmanthus suits spring and autumn, by day; its citrus makes it luminous, while its base is more sensual and lingering. Placing osmanthus in the base rather than at the top gives it a slow, warm development.
Three florals in our catalogue come close: Elysium Absolue by Roja Parfums shares neroli, pink pepper and patchouli; Enigma Pour Femme, also by Roja Parfums, finds mandarin, neroli and patchouli again; Adare by Memo Paris pairs mandarin with flowers.
