Bottega Veneta’s Parco Palladiano collection is the luxury house’s most extensive perfume range, one that was first introduced in 2016 with six scents that were aptly named from I to VI based on the order of their creation. With inspiration taken from the Palladian gardens of the Veneto, the fragrances are in fact composed of ingredients and materials that are taken from nature and the surrounding regions in Italy, where you can expect nothing but a beautiful selection of flowers, fruits, herbs and woods.

Another point worth mentioning is that each fragrance is named after the key note of the composition (along with a corresponding Roman numeral), with the 3 latest scents Quadrifoglio (XIII), Melagrana (XIV) and Salvia Blu (XV) being the highlights of today’s post.

Starting with Quadrifoglio (XIII), expect to find a scent that comes with a delectable blend of basil, white bergamot and incense, a lightweight composition that creates the feeling of walking in the gardens bright and early in the morning. Next, Melagrana (XIV), which is one that comes with a high concentration of pomegranate, a fruity scent that beckons the feeling of early morning sunlight, thanks to the warm notes of blackcurrant buds, mandarin and an intense cedarwood base. The third scent, Salvia Blu (XV), comes with a floral amalgamation of rose and lavender, eliciting the senses of an early morning dawn just before daylight, laced with sage and musky ingredients for a delicate all-rounded balance.

Each bottle features the brand’s iconic intrecciato pattern, which gives a nice solid grip to the touch, and comes in a see-through flacon that reveals the colours of the fragrance within. Priced at SGD390 each, these 100 ml eau de parfums are now exclusively available at Metro Department Store over at Paragon Shopping Centre.
