Fragrance Character and Style
Bolgherello Coccole di Lavanda is an eau de parfum for women with a distinctive chypre-floral character and fruity nuances.
The composition combines the freshness of bergamot, the juiciness of ripe fruit, the aromatic coolness of lavender, and a deep woody-mossy base.
The result is not a literal lavender soliflore, but a layered fragrance with an Italian mood and a distinctive personality.
The fragrance was created by Bolgherello, an Italian niche perfume house inspired by images of Tuscany, the Mediterranean sun, and hilly landscapes.
Coccole di Lavanda continues this aesthetic through the contrast of sun-warmed fruit, green lavender, and dark accords of oakmoss, patchouli, and guaiac wood.
The release description does not specify the year of launch, collection, or perfumer.
How It Develops on the Skin
At first, Coccole di Lavanda smells bright and juicy: apricot and plum add soft, rounded fruitiness, while bergamot refreshes the composition and makes the opening more sparkling.
It then becomes more herbaceous and floral, revealing lavender alongside geranium, rose, and ylang-ylang.
This combination maintains a balance between cool greenery, subtly spicy florals, and delicate sweetness.
As the fragrance develops, the fruity nuances gradually give way to a rich base.
Oakmoss and patchouli create a characteristic chypre texture, guaiac wood adds dry, smoky-woody depth, while vanilla softens the composition and gives it a warm finishing touch.
As a result, the fragrance feels cohesive and distinctive: its mood shifts from a juicy opening to an elegant, rich trail.
Wearability and Sillage
Bolgherello Coccole di Lavanda is a feminine fragrance released in eau de parfum concentration.
By character, it is not a quiet background scent, but a perfume with very strong sillage that needs time to unfold.
It will appeal to those who enjoy expressive compositions with a noticeable presence, a classic chypre base, and an unusual combination of lavender and fruit.
The fragrance is especially suitable for cool weather, when mossy, woody, and vanilla nuances feel more expansive, while the fruity-citrusy top notes can retain their freshness more easily.
It can be chosen for an evening, a special occasion, or an everyday look if you are comfortable with rich fragrances.
No precise recommendation for the number of sprays on skin or clothing is provided for this release, so it is best to adjust the amount gradually, starting with a small number of sprays.
The Fragrance in the Context of the Brand
Coccole di Lavanda’s main feature is the combination of recognizable chypre materials with a soft fruity accent.
Lavender here is not limited to the role of a fresh green note: surrounded by apricot, plum, floral accords, and vanilla, it becomes part of a richer, more feminine image.
This contrast makes the composition an interesting introduction to niche Italian perfumery.
