Zafferano

I will definitely buy it soon, People need to get their act together with this fragrance, if after several years of discontinuing midnight poison by Christian Dior and our hearts are still sad about it, we have the one that is closest to the fragrance of that time, of course it does not have the trail as powerful as the mythical midnight poison but it does have the duration and a less invasive trail. This new creation from the Acqua di Parma house is another great success in giving variety to its "Signatures from the sun" collection; in which I have some of them, I feel that it is undervalued and that only connoisseurs of the authentic Italian line and are colonies that maintain that essence are given the opportunity to know something unique. In this case I was buying Oud & Spice, which I already had on my wish list, when the sales associate at Palacio de Hierro Polanco (Mexico) invited me to also see one of the most recent additions to the collection and it was Zafferano, although with The lid is the same as the others and without the gold details as shown in the main image of the Harrods version, the SA commented that it is the same concept. From the beginning it made me smile and after 1 minute thinking about what it was, a very familiar aroma occurred to me while my imagination took me back to blue nights with sweetness in the atmosphere like Halloween season or Dia de Muertos (2 november), one trying to seduce just with the look or doing mischief alone while maintaining a young spirit where one just wants to spend the night in a club and dance enough to get home tired and sleep comfortably. Once that dream was over, while I was remembering the aroma, I saw the incredible resemblance of Acqua di Parma Zafferano to Midnight Poison (which I still jealously keep in my closet so as not to finish the bottle I have) definitely a unique aroma that will turn heads, it will make you remember MP from CD and that if one does not take advantage of the opportunity to recover that memory, perhaps we will miss this fragrant eclipse that we had not witnessed for a while. Recommendation to go try it and get two bottles. It lasts more than 8 hours with a strong trail for the first 5 hours and it goes down little by little but it continues to be perceived without problems by people around. If you wear just a shirt and attitude for a date it will be successful, on the other hand a woman with an undeniable presence can wear this perfume to reaffirm her authority. Definitely a very well made fragrance that can give more good surprises than bad, making you unique. Thank you Acqua di Parma for reviving an extraordinary aroma.

EN Acqua di Parma Zafferano is nothing short of an olfactory masterpiece. From the very first moment, it envelops you in an elegant and refined warmth that is both captivating and comforting. The opening is a bright burst of citrus—mandarin and bergamot—perfectly balanced by the spice of coriander. But it’s in the heart of the fragrance where the magic truly happens: luxurious saffron, paired with jasmine and rose, creates a sensation that feels both exotic and timeless. The drydown, with vanilla, tonka bean, and patchouli, adds a rich and sensual depth that lingers beautifully on the skin. What makes Zafferano so special is its ability to be both bold and subtle. It has a distinctive presence without being overwhelming, making it perfect for any occasion, from day to night. Whether you’re wearing it to a formal event or simply for yourself, Zafferano is sure to draw compliments and elevate your mood. It’s a fragrance that feels like a personal signature, an intimate expression of sophistication and style. I can’t recommend it enough for those who appreciate quality and elegance in their scents. IT Acqua di Parma Zafferano è un vero e proprio capolavoro olfattivo. Fin dal primo momento, ti avvolge in un calore elegante e raffinato, che è al tempo stesso affascinante e rassicurante. L’apertura è un’esplosione luminosa di agrumi—mandarino e bergamotto—perfettamente bilanciata dalla spezia del coriandolo. Ma è nel cuore della fragranza che avviene la magia: il lussuoso zafferano, unito a gelsomino e rosa, crea una sensazione che appare sia esotica che senza tempo. La base, con vaniglia, fava tonka e patchouli, aggiunge una ricchezza e una profondità sensuale che rimane magnificamente sulla pelle. Ciò che rende Zafferano così speciale è la sua capacità di essere al contempo audace e sottile. Ha una presenza distintiva senza essere invadente, rendendolo perfetto per ogni occasione, dal giorno alla notte. Che tu lo indossi per un evento formale o semplicemente per te stesso, Zafferano è sicuro di ricevere complimenti e di migliorare il tuo umore. È una fragranza che sembra una firma personale, un’espressione intima di raffinatezza e stile. Non posso raccomandarlo abbastanza a chi apprezza qualità ed eleganza nei propri profumi.

Another great addition to my collection from Acqua di Parma. It's such a cozy and easy going fragrance, something for a person that doesn't easily get bothered by the little things. It's something I put on when I want to relax, have a slow day and just enjoy the moment. But honestly it's great for any occasion: office, running errands, an evening out or a chill Sunday brunch. In my opinion it's also suitable for any time of year. Reminds me a bit of a luxury soap but in a good way. Some will say it's kind of boring, I'm gonna say it's pure class. It's quite light and uplifting, not "in your face" kind of thing. I would say initial 30min can project quite well but after that if someone wants to smell it, they will have to get close to you. Kind of average performance overall but that's fine, exactly what I would expect from a chill fragrance like this. What I find crazy is that no one compared this yet to Roja Moustache EDP nor Laura Biagiotti Roma Uomo. While they obviously don't smell exactly the same, they all have very similar structure and overall feeling. Roma Uomo being the old school one, Moustache the "modern man" version and Zafferano the luxury version. Price wise I think it's not that bad, you can get 180ml for around 200eur. Normally I do not recommend blind buying but if you got some spare cash and you're into orientals like me, you will most likely enjoy it.

Testing Zafferano from a 1.5 ml Acqua di Parma official sample. Not what I was expecting based on the feedback from Feagrantica users votes... First of all, Zafferano is an amazing fragrance indeed! Combining notes like sweet tonka, vanilla, rose, saffron with geranium, fresh citruses, orange blossom, woods and jasmine creates a lovely gourmand saffron scent. The way it develops on my skin takes Zafferano into a feminine direction! I understand that the scent it’s supposed to highlight saffron note, but the sweetness from vanilla and tonka beans as well as pairs of flowers: on one side rose and geranium, on the other jasmine and orange blossoms really make the juice smell super girly and sweet. So I am a bit surprised by the votes here stating it’s a more masculine fragrance, this is not how I experience this juice. The scent smells very natural and addictive but the performance is kinda lacking. For the price Acqua di Parma sells this perfume l, I need more to justify the cost. While I absolutely love the way it smells and I would totally wear Zafferano (and recommend it to ladies) especially during fall season, I can’t put up with the hefty price. But on sale, this is fire!!! Better than I was anticipated when I was checking out the notes! Beautiful as always with Acqua di Parma!

Acqua di Parma Zafferano is a true gem in the world of fragrances. The scent is sophisticated and distinctly luxurious, with an intriguing balance of spiciness and freshness. The saffron and mandarin notes shine beautifully in the opening, giving it a rich yet lively character. As it dries down, the orange blossom middle notes add a delicate floral touch, perfectly complemented by a subtle woody base. This fragrance smells expensive and elegant. It’s not too strong or overwhelming, making it perfect for many occasions, yet it still has an uplifting effect on my mood throughout the day. Performance-wise, it’s impressive—lasting a solid 10 hours on clothing and around 8 hours on the skin. Overall, Acqua di Parma Zafferano is a modern classic. It stands out with its fresh and different approach, offering a refined scent that feels timeless and chic. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a fresh, spicy, and versatile fragrance!
