Bottega Veneta Knot is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2014, created by Daniela Andrier. The fragrance opens with Orange Blossom, Neroli, Lime, and Mandarin, settles into a heart of Lavender, Rose, and Peony, and dries down to a base of Musk and Tonka Bean.

Our verdict on Knot: Favourite

A divisive blend that promises Italian sunshine but can deliver a challenging bitterness on some skin chemistries. When it works, it's a sophisticated, fresh, and clean floral with surprising depth. When it doesn't, it quickly turns sour.

Its clean, fresh, and often-described 'soapy' character makes it perfect for office or casual wear where it can project a professional aura without being overwhelming. While some find it elegant enough for formal settings, its divisive nature and potential for animalic notes might make it less universally appealing for a date night. Longevity and sillage are moderate, preventing it from being too loud for certain environments.

About

Knot opens with a vibrant, sparkling burst of citrus, dominated by bright neroli, orange blossom, and a tart lime. This zesty freshness transitions into a clean, smooth floral heart where earthy lavender tempers the sweetness of rose and peony. The dry-down settles into a soft, musky embrace, with a delicate sweetness from tonka bean preventing it from becoming too sharp. Expect an enduring fresh and elegant scent if your skin chemistry plays ball, otherwise it can be a bit of a swamp thing with animalic nuances that lean to 'old metal' or 'rotting dumpster' tones.
