A story that started in Italy in 1884 by Sotirios Voulgaris has left a permanent mark on the jewelry and fragrance industries. Bvlgari, a brand that made its name in creating exquisite, luxurious watches and jewelry, expanded into making perfumes in 1992. Its fragrances reflected its jewelry’s sophistication and high quality, maintaining a blend of classic and modern elements to create scents that appeal to those with a taste for the finer things.
Bvlgari’s innovative bottle design is creative and can be recognized anywhere. The scent inside the bottle is even more innovative. Each of the following Bvlgari perfumes will leave an unforgettable impression on you.

Splendida Tubereuse Mystique by Bvlgari is an amber floral fragrance. This woman’s scent opens with warm, spicy, and musky notes of black currant and davana. The heart is tuberose, a flower reminiscent of jasmine and gardenia. The base is sweet and intoxicating with notes of vanilla absolute and myrrh.
This combination of deep and rich notes gives us a decadent and warm floral fragrance. I nominate this as the ideal date night fragrance for the fall/winter.

Aqva Pour Homme is an option for men looking for a fragrance for everyday wear.
