Baruffa

Atkinsons Baruffa is an Eau de Parfum launched in 1981. Baruffa opens with Star Anise, Red Apple, Aldehydes, and Petitgrain, settles into a heart of Orris, Rose, Lily Of The Valley, and Orange Blossom, and dries down to a base of Labdanum and Frankincense. Atkinsons's Baruffa carries an Acquired verdict, a amber-led wear.

A divisive yet iconic slice of 80s Italian glamour, Baruffa is a bold, sparkling aldehydic bomb with surprising depth. It's a love-it-or-hate-it scent that screams character and nostalgia.

About

Baruffa explodes with an aldehydic fizz, brightened by tart red apple, sharp petitgrain, and a hint of intriguing star anise. The heart blooms into a rich floral bouquet of creamy orris, delicate lily of the valley, and opulent ylang-ylang, underscored by the clean sparkle of neroli and orange blossom. A sophisticated drydown of smoky frankincense and resinous labdanum anchors this lively composition, giving it an unexpected balsamic warmth.
