Acqua Eau de Parfum references the water features of the Grotta degli Animali at Villa Medicea di Castello, commissioned by Grand Duke Cosimo I in 1539. Pear at the opening, freesia and lotus at the heart, musk at the base. Aquatic and floral.

Description

Grand Duke Cosimo I de' Medici commissioned Niccolò Pericoli, known as Il Tribolo, to construct the Grotta degli Animali at Villa di Castello in 1539. The work was later completed by Giorgio Vasari and Giambologna. Tribolo also designed the hydraulic system that fed its fountains: over a hundred jets emerge from the vault, the floor, and the mouths of animals. Acqua takes this as its formal reference: aquatic and floral, built on pear, freesia and lotus. From I Giardini Medicei.

Andrew ★★★★★

The pear opening is bright but not sweet, and the freesia and lotus keep it feeling clean all day. I've worn it to work and on a weekend walk, and it's subtle enough for both. Lasted about six hours on me, which felt right for this kind of fresh scent.

Eli ★★★★★

I wasn't sure what to expect from a perfume inspired by a Renaissance grotto, but the freesia and lotus notes give it such a clean, almost watery freshness that feels really sophisticated. It’s light enough for daytime but lingers in a soft, pleasant way for hours.

Eva O. ★★★★★

The pear opening is what got me—it’s bright and almost fizzy, like biting into a fresh one on a hot day, before the freesia and lotus take over with a clean, watery softness. I’ve worn it to work and out to dinner, and it lasts a solid six hours without turning powdery.
