From its lustrous jeweled bottle to its warm scent that blends papyrus and patchouli with notes of rich Bergamot and Ylang Ylang, everything about Goldea Eau de Parfum—Bulgari’s newest fragrance—suggests sunshine. While Bulgari’s recent campaign has centered on the solar influences of the scent, the brand has also incorporated its iconic serpenti design into the band around the bottle top. In a short video on a dedicated page of Bulgari’s website, master perfumer Alberto Morillas describes the way Goldea mirrors the changing hues of sunlight from early dawn to evening’s nostalgia. Goldea Eau de Parfum is available at Bulgari outlets worldwide.
