Bottega Verde Mandorla is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2026. Mandorla opens with Almond Blossom, Bergamot, and Walnut, settles into a heart of Jasmine, Hazelnut, and Pistachio, and dries down to a base of Musk, Sandalwood, and Vanilla. Bottega Verde's Mandorla carries a Statement verdict, a sweet-led wear.

This nutty-sweet dream is a divisive one. You'll either adore its creamy, comforting warmth or find it too cloying. Definitely a marmite moment, but those who love it, really love it.

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:
Fall
Also Works:
Spring

Its woody, nutty and powdery composition leans towards autumn.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual

Its sweet, nutty, and powdery profile makes it a poor fit for formal or sporty occasions. Best suited for dates or casual wear where its comforting warmth can shine, but might be too intense for some office environments.

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

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Sandalwood Santalol from Sandalwood
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk
  • Vanillin from Vanilla

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

Imagine strolling through an almond grove on a warm evening, as a delicate breeze carries the scent of almond blossom and a hint of bright bergamot. Soon, the nutty heart emerges, a rich blend of toasted hazelnut and pistachio, grounding the floral lightness with a creamy, almost edible warmth. As it settles, a soft powdery veil of musk and vanilla wraps around a smooth sandalwood base, creating a cosy, comforting embrace that lingers on the skin.
