Benetton Paradiso Inferno Blue is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2001. Paradiso Inferno Blue opens with Sea Water, Lemon, and Geranium, settles into a heart of Cyclamen, Jasmine, Nutmeg, and Ginger, and dries down to a base of Musk, Amber, Cedar, and Sandalwood. Benetton's Paradiso Inferno Blue carries a Favourite verdict, a woody-led wear.

A surprisingly good, often overlooked aquatic that's far more than its budget price tag suggests. It's a fresh, uplifting blast of summer, perfect for hot weather, though its performance can be a bit hit-or-miss for some.

Scent Profile

Composition

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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Casual Sport
Also Works:
Office Date

Its moderate longevity and sillage, combined with its fresh aquatic nature, make it an excellent choice for casual daytime wear, especially in warmer climates. While generally too light for formal events, it's pleasant enough for a low-key office environment or a relaxed date.

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.

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

This one opens with a bracing splash of sea water and sharp lemon, immediately conjuring bright, breezy summer mornings. The initial zest soon mellows, making way for a heart of delicate cyclamen and a subtle hint of spicy ginger. As it dries down, a clean blend of musk, cedar, and vetiver emerges, grounding the aquatic freshness with a smooth, woody finish.
