The house of Acqua Alpes gifted the world with 2828 in 2015. A unisex fragrance belonging to the citrus family. Released in eau de toilette.
Austria is where this fragrance comes from — and it shows. 2828 Acqua Alpes unfolds gradually, effortlessly, and with great refinement — a perfect choice for day or evening.
A great perfume doesn't need lengthy explanations — it speaks for itself. The official website of Acqua Alpes — http://www.luckyscent.com.
The fragrance is very long-lasting, staying on the skin for 12 hours or more, gradually revealing its notes
The scent will linger in the air even after its wearer has left.
The perfume has a fresh scent that is not too intense, so it does not overwhelm those around you with strong essences
A light and elegant fragrance with harmonious richness—the perfect balance between the depth of eau de parfum and the freshness of cologne
Fragrances for spring and summer unfold with light citrus notes, floral and fruity accords, filling the composition with freshness, airiness, and a feeling of carefree lightness on warm days
The composition of 2828 is shaped as a cohesive olfactory arc, where accents shift smoothly and sequentially. The style of Acqua Alpes is clear in the pacing of the notes and the overall aesthetic. No excess details, only what works, and the fragrance holds its character from opening to trail. Eau de toilette supports the depth and body this composition needs.
In the top tier you meet invigorating sunny first notes: Lemon and Mandarin. Exactly these 2 notes form a burst of citrus freshness that is impossible to miss.
In the central layer you sense Jasmine carrying a silky white floral direction. At the foundation the structure settles through Cedar, extending a earthy woody-resinous trail.
The internal accord map is shaped by these accords: Citrus, Floral and Wood with each one in a clear role. The gender direction is unisex, which sharpens how the fragrance is perceived.
At olfactory-group level the profile is anchored in Citrus, Whiteflower and Wood. Within olfactory families the fragrance belongs to Citrus.
In summary 2828 holds a coherent structure — the start forms character, the heart develops the core line, and the final phase leaves a stable imprint. This is the type of composition best understood in wear.
