Acqua di Parma Chinotto di Liguria is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2018, created by François Demachy. Chinotto di Liguria opens with Chinotto and Mandarin, settles into a heart of Jasmine, Geranium, Cardamom, and Rosemary, and dries down to a base of Musk and Patchouli. Acqua di Parma's Chinotto di Liguria carries a Favourite verdict, a fresh-led wear.

A bittersweet symphony for some, a fleeting joy for others. This one's an Acqua di Parma classic with a twist. It bursts with unique, fizzy citruses, but its staying power truly splits the crowd. Love the opening, lament the longevity-a common refrain for good reason.

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

Declarable under EU Annex III

  • Rose geranium Pelargonium Graveolens Oil from Geranium
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Chinotto di Liguria opens with a sparkling, tart blast of chinotto and mandarin, reminiscent of a Mediterranean soda. This vibrant citrus quickly makes way for a sophisticated heart of aromatic rosemary and fresh geranium, with a hint of warm cardamom spice. The journey concludes on a clean, subtly woody and musky base, where patchouli provides an earthy anchor, but often too softly for some.
