In southern skies, among white stones and the blue of the sea, a star appears before all the others, at dusk. It is barely visible against the light, while the sky is still partly bright, yet it is already tracing the route. “Stella”, the floral unisex Eau de Parfum by Acqua dell’Elba, tells the story of warm, deep Mediterranean summer nights, where ochre-coloured earth holds the heat of the day and the scent of the maquis becomes full and intense.
The top notes take shape through the slightly sweet yet tangy nuances of bergamot, together with the rounder notes of orange: warm, ripe citrus fruits. An opening that announces the evening, its intimacy, that moment of quiet before darkness falls.
At the heart of the fragrance, the scent moves towards softer, denser impressions. Jasmine, a nocturnal flower that blooms as the light changes, meets cotton flower and orchid; together, they give depth and roundness to the bouquet.
Then night slowly arrives, expressed in the base notes of “Stella”: musk, white woods and sandalwood extend the story, giving the fragrance a warm persistence that remains on the skin.
“Stella” is the unisex perfume of those who recognise the route even before travelling it, of those who know that some destinations can only be reached by following a light that appears before all the others. A friendly star that leads us back to familiar places, after crossing seas that were once unknown and have now become part of us.
The two souls of “Stella”
Floral and enveloping, the “Stella” Eau de Parfum has two souls: the southern Mediterranean, its islands, its scents, its ochre-coloured earth, the vitality of its villages; and the silent night in which a star appears to guide the route towards what is known. It is the moment of returning to the land that belongs to us and that we call home, guided by a Star that can lighten the thoughts of those who leave to discover, and return carrying something new within them.
A unisex fragrance that belongs to everyone, to those who know that certain places, scents and moments can change the way we look at things.
“Stella” is part of the “Mediterranea” collection together with “Riviera” and “Essenzamare”: three unisex fragrances, three different ways of experiencing the Mediterranean, three stages of a journey that begins on the shore, continues across the open sea and ends with a return to one’s origins.
Available in 50 ml and 100 ml sizes, “Stella” is also included in the “Mediterranea” box, in a practical 15 ml format, together with the other two souls of the collection. Discover “Stella” and the “Mediterranea” collection online and in our stores.
