Ermenegildo Zegna Acqua di Neroli is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2018. Acqua di Neroli opens with Bergamot and Lemon, settles into a heart of Neroli, and dries down to a base of Cypriol Oil or Nagarmotha. Ermenegildo Zegna's Acqua di Neroli carries a Favourite verdict, a fresh-led wear.

This is a sunny, refreshing neroli that's largely a crowd-pleaser for hot weather, though some get an unfortunate 'raw egg' note. If you're after a sophisticated, natural-smelling summer staple, this could be your affordable gem.

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

Acqua di Neroli opens with a vibrant, zesty burst of bergamot and lemon, instantly uplifting and bright. This sparkling citrus swiftly transitions into the heart of the fragrance, where a clean, slightly soapy neroli takes centre stage, evoking sun-drenched Mediterranean groves. A subtle, earthy dryness from cypriol oil in the base grounds the composition, adding an understated sophistication without losing its inherent freshness. It's an effortlessly chic, warm weather scent.
