Fragrances that celebrate fruit capture the essence of a spring garden, where nature triumphs in all its beauty. Each perfume tells a story of nature in full bloom, evoking vivid images of sun-kissed fields and lush landscapes. House of Creed's Fragaria evokes the sweetness of strawberries basking under the sun, Casamorati's Fiore d'Ulivo honors the delicate blooming of olive trees, while Acqua di Parma's Bergamotto di Calabria reflects the vibrant freshness of a fruit thriving between the waves of the Mediterranean. Ex Nihilo’s Santal Calling, with its warm and spicy nutmeg, adds a unique twist to this narrative, capturing the bright and soothing essence of sandalwood, and inviting an addictive sensory experience. Together, these fragrances invite us to experience the rejuvenating power of nature in all its splendor.

House of Creed’s Fragaria is a new feminine fragrance inspired by sun-dappled strawberry fields, an ode to the sweetness and vibrancy of this iconic fruit of British summers. Juicy and radiant, the strawberry bursts with color and joy, and the Maison captures its essence in a bright, carefree composition. The fragrance opens with lively citrus notes of bergamot and mandarin, enriched by the vibrancy of pink pepper, revealing an irresistible heart of strawberry intertwined with the talc-like delicacy of violet. At the base, the enveloping warmth of vetiver and the refinement of cedarwood add depth, leaving an elegant, nostalgic trail. Fragaria is available exclusively in Creed boutiques and online.

Casamorati’s Fiore d'Ulivo captures the rare and fleeting experience of touching and inhaling the delicate blossoms of olive trees on the sun-drenched heights of the Mediterranean. This fragrance transforms this natural wonder into a luminous and evocative scent. It begins with a vibrant blend of mentholated lemon zest, the crisp freshness of basil leaves, and the soft, musky warmth of ambrette seeds, setting an invigorating yet delicate tone. At its heart, the floral elegance of jasmine absolute and magnolia intertwines with the ethereal beauty of lotus flower, enhancing the citrus brightness with intoxicating, refined allure. As the fragrance evolves, the warmth of benzoin, the golden depth of amber, and the sensual softness of musk envelop the composition, leaving a lasting, sophisticated impression.
