Libertine Neroli

Inspiration
Libertine Neroli is Francesca Bianchi's first fragrance devoted entirely to a single material. It stands for luxury as the enjoyment of life, with a sense of freedom and relaxation. Inspiration came from the glorious places of Italian social life: the carefree Dolce Vita in Rome, Wyler's Roman Holiday and Minghella's The Talented Mr. Ripley.

The Signature of Libertine Neroli
An opening of bergamot and petitgrain sets the tone. At the heart, neroli, geranium and iris unfold, before animalic accord, leather, labdanum, benzoin and oakmoss give the scent a lasting, warm finish.

What our ParfuMaria team thinks of this fragrance
In our salon, Libertine Neroli stands out for its interplay of neroli and animalic accord: elegant and full of nuance. On the skin the scent opens with bergamot and petitgrain, bright and inviting during the first half hour. Then neroli and geranium take over and the composition reveals its true character. After three to four hours it settles into animalic accord and leather, a soft, personal finish that lingers well into the day on skin and clothing. We like to wear it best in spring and summer, during the day and on warm evenings. A scent for those who love neroli with a sensual, vintage chypre depth.
