Luce di Rosa is the latest addition to Acqua di Parma's Signatures of the Sun collection. This gender-neutral fragrance dances between contrasts, where the lively essence of contemporary rose meets intriguing mineral notes, kicks off with a zesty splash of bergamot and mandarin, spiced up by pink pepper and a hint of cardamom. At its heart, the Bulgarian rose takes centre stage, paired with geranium to create a floral symphony that’s both rich and invigorating. As it settles, you'll find a warm embrace of vetiver, guaiac wood, and cedarwood, all wrapped in soft musk. It's truely a unique scent that will turn heads.

Aside from perfume, this new scent can also be experienced through the Luce di Rosa hand and body wash, as well as body cream.
