Bottega Veneta Parco Palladiano V: Lauro is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2016, created by Daniela Andrier. Parco Palladiano V: Lauro opens with Labdanum and Mint, settles into a heart of Geranium, Pepper, Bay Leaf, and Rosemary, and dries down to a base of Vetiver. Bottega Veneta's Parco Palladiano V: Lauro carries a Favourite verdict, a woody-led wear.

A truly gorgeous, natural green aromatic that's unfortunately been discontinued. It's subtle but memorable, though the performance is a divisive point for many. Worth seeking out if you can find it and the price doesn't sting.

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.

About

Lauro opens with an invigorating burst of fresh mint, immediately grounded by a subtle warmth from labdanum. The heart quickly unfolds into a rich, aromatic tapestry of bay leaf, rosemary, and sage, lifted by a peppery kick and a hint of tea, reminiscent of a sun-drenched Mediterranean herb garden. As it settles, a clean, earthy vetiver emerges, providing a refined and natural-smelling base that lingers elegantly on the skin.
