Arousing your senses and enveloping you in the intensely stimulating pleasure of its scent, this alluring and irresistible blend expresses bold yet sensuous femininity. It brings to life new emotions thanks to the sensual and deeply addictive Patchouli, unveiling its luminous new Eau de Parfum: PATCHOULI TENTATION.

Infusing a new creative boost with unrestrained inspirations, BVLGARI has chosen to focus on an emblematic and enticing ingredient in women’s perfumery with the notion of temptation intricately woven into its history:Patchouli, exclusively magni ed for BVLGARI.

A tropical plant that exudes an earthy, warm, spicy, musky scent, patchouli is one of the great temptations of the natural world. Used as a perfume and anaphrodisiac, patchouli has a long and storied history, and was rst brought westalong ancient trade routes, where its jewel-like luminosity and heady scentmade it as precious as gold. Later, it was used to scent ne silks and shawls, and,more recently, became a symbol of free-spirited rebellion in the 1970s.

Patchouli is the heart of the new SPLENDIDA BVLGARI Chypre Floral fragrance signed by Sophie Labbé. Staying true to its Bvlgari heritage, she has sculpted Patchouli Tentation with the precision of a jeweler, crafting a luminous andenveloping scent that celebrates one of nature’s nest gems and expressesChypre in a modern and unexpected way.

To create the provocative new fragrance, master perfumer Sophie Labbé used a patchouli trio that unmasks the unfolding Temptation. One of the most alluring scents in the perfumer’s palette, patchouli has many distinctive facets. For the new SPLENDIDA BVLGARI Patchouli Tentation, Sophie Labbé chose three complementary elements, created in exclusivity for Bulgari, creating an olfactory narrative of temptation revealed, chiseled in different shades of patchouli.

For the top note, Sophie Labbé selected Patchouli oil Bali Flores, a rare patchouli harvested in a very small island, adding special hues from the sea to calm its earthy notes. She refers to it as “blond Patchouli,” due to its velvety elegance. Combined with rich White Peach accord, this delicate fruity bouquet offers a clear and luminous sensation as the top notes are boldly unveiled.
