In the conventional sense, France is considered the most developed country in the field of perfumery. Who among us has not heard rave reviews about the fragrance, backed up by the phrase “French perfume”? Indeed, this country is home to many famous perfume brands. However, good perfumes are not only produced here. The fragrances created in Italy and the United Arab Emirates received the same worldwide fame. Although, the latter are known mostly as the creators of expensive collections of perfume oils.
Perfume of Italy
Ever since the 16th century, this temperamental country began producing the first fragrances. Venice (the main port of the country) abounded in spices, spices and oils, which were brought by merchants from other countries, as well as their own. It was this variety of ingredients available that started the creation of fragrances.
Already in 1535, the first Italian perfume shop was opened.
The next center was Florence. Many flowers were grown on the territory of the main cathedral of the city. They became the ingredients of a fragrance that became famous throughout Europe.

Today Italy boasts both its own companies and collaborations with famous houses in other countries. There are many brands of Italian perfumes - women's and men's. Among them are such giants as Giorgio Armani, Ferragamo, Gucci, Moschino, Prada, Valentino, Bvlgari, Versace. One of them is Acqua di Parma, which recently entered the world level. The perfume house was founded at the beginning of the 20th century. A small company could have drowned among the giants of perfumery, if not for three entrepreneurs who decided to take it out of a provincial town and show it to the world.
Acqua di Parma's best-known fragrance is Colonia, a unisex floral citrus with a bright lavender trail. Most of the perfumes were created in the 2000s, and the collection currently includes more than 50 fragrances.

Giorgio Armani brand is one of the largest. Eau de toilette Armani Code has gained fame as the most famous Italian men's perfume of this brand. This is due to the fact that this is the first oriental fragrance from Armani.

Perfumes from the Bvlgari brand also appeared relatively recently - in the 90s. The paradigm of the company is the pursuit of excellence in everything. This explains the original approach to the selection of fragrance concepts. Among men's perfumes, the Acqua line stands out. An idea inspired by the beauty and colorfulness of Italy, its seascapes and warmth. Perfumes are enclosed in original bottles in the form of a drop of water. The female half of the collection is famous for Bvlgari Pour Femme, a sensual and feminine composition, as well as the Omnia line, which captivates both perfume bouquets and bottle design.
