Bottega Veneta
Bottega Veneta by Bottega Veneta is a feminine-leaning eau de parfum from 2011 in the premium price tier. It opens with bergamot and pink pepper, moves into jasmine and plum and dries down to patchouli, leather and oakmoss. Expect around 8 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Bergamot Sharp citrus with a faint bitter edge. The opening of about half of all men's fragrances.
- Pink Pepper Fizzy, rosy and bright. Adds sparkle without heat.
Heart
- Jasmine Heady, sweet and slightly animal underneath. Rarely subtle.
- Plum Dark, wine-like and slightly stewed. Autumnal.
Dry-down
- Patchouli Damp earth and dark chocolate. Either you love it or it's your least favourite note.
- Leather Smoky, dry and a bit animal. Can be a new jacket or an old saddle.
- Oakmoss Damp forest floor. Bitter, green and the backbone of every chypre.
