Zafferano places saffron at the centre of the composition. Bergamot, mandarin, orange and coriander open the fragrance with a spicy freshness.
Saffron then mingles with jasmine sambac, geranium, rose and orange blossom, before a warm base of vanilla, tonka bean and patchouli. A sunny, enveloping woody amber.

Zafferano in detail
Zafferano belongs to Signatures of the Sun, Acqua di Parma's collection built around a precious material and the warm light of the Italian sun. The material here is saffron, at the heart of a woody amber where it meets flowers, vanilla and tonka.
The official pyramid opens on bergamot, mandarin, coriander and orange, a slightly spicy citrus start. The heart brings together jasmine sambac, geranium, rose, saffron and orange blossom. The base pairs vanilla, tonka bean and patchouli, a warm, round foundation.
Zafferano is worn in autumn and winter, by day or by night: at the office on a cold day, at a dinner, or in the evening.
Three amber fragrances in our catalogue share many of its materials: Ambre 114 by Histoires de Parfums brings together rose, geranium, patchouli, vanilla and tonka bean; Dirty Heaven by Born To Stand Out pairs bergamot, tonka bean, saffron and vanilla; Lettre de Pushkar by Ella K Parfums finds saffron, rose, orange blossom, patchouli and vanilla again.
