How to choose a fragrance for a first date
A first date is like a little performance where every detail matters. Clothes, tone of voice, glance...
The world first encountered Love by Bottega Verde in 2000. By character, a masculine fragrance drawing from the fern family. Released in eau de toilette.
Expect a extremely noticeable sillage: present enough to be remembered. A subtle fragrance: the longevity is low, which suits its gentle character. The birthplace of this fragrance — Italy, a place with a refined nose. Love Bottega Verde — the choice of those who appreciate depth and character in every detail.
The fragrance has low persistence and lasts on the skin for about 2–3 hours, gradually fading and smoothly revealing its main 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 Love evolves as a living composition, where accents shift without rush and without gaps. The signature of Bottega Verde is recognizable from the opening to the final trail. Every decision feels deliberate, and the structure feels complete all the way through. Eau de toilette supports a balanced rhythm of unfolding.
From the first breath you detect cardamom-peppery first notes: Black Pepper, Lemon and Melon.
When the opening settles you meet Mahogany, Marine accord and Tonka bean holding a velvety sandalwood direction.
The accord architecture is shaped by these accords: Citrus, Gourmet, Fruit and Musc with each one in a clear role. Additional accords such as Wood, Spicy and Marine enrich the profile without taking over. The profile is masculine, which makes the scent profile easier to read. In longevity terms Low indicates a stable lasting impression.
At the note-group layer the structure relies on Spicy, Citrus, Fruit and Wood. It also reaches into Aquatic and Musk.
Taken together Love sounds complete from start to finish — the opening sets direction, the heart develops the core line, while the drydown anchors the memory. These are the fragrances best judged through real development.
