Bottega Veneta launched the self-titled debut perfume in 2011. This fragrance of simply elegance is inspired by Venetian landscapes. In early 2013, a new version of the debut, the second fragrance&Bottega Veneta Eau Legere&comes out.

Tomas Maier, the creative director of the house, explains the idea behind the new fragrance: “I wanted something completely new, a creation that combines the sensuality of the original Bottega Veneta fragrance with the clarity and freshness of water.”

Michel Almairac, the creator of both perfumes, described the process of developing a new version as “passing the original fragrance through a waterfall." The composition is leathery - floral - chypre and it opens with refreshed dazzling top notes of the original which include bergamot and pink pepper. The scent retains its unique floral accord of jasmine, this time animated by delicate gardenia. The combination of oak moss and musk form a feminine and delicate trail.

Bottega Veneta, the fragrance, is inspired by a vision of the Venetian countryside. In this dream, the supple sensuality of the house’s renowned leather goods is suffused with warmth, the sunshine, and a summer breeze redolent of hay, earth, forest, and flowers. An elegant and unexpected balance of nature and art, it is a fragrance that lingers in the mind like the memory of an unforgettable& woman. Now Bottega Veneta introduces a new and unique interpretation of this enchanting idea— Bottega Veneta Eau Légère.
