Ermenegildo Zegna Persian Saffron is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2017. Ermenegildo Zegna's Persian Saffron carries an Acquired verdict, a fresh-led wear.

Persian Saffron is a bright, spicy masculine built on saffron, citrus and bergamot. We hold a short note list with no layered pyramid, so it reads as clean spice rather than a complicated story. A simple, confident choice.

Scent Profile

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

The notes we hold are saffron, spicy notes, bergamot and citrus, with no top, heart and base breakdown. Saffron is the lead: warm, a little leathery and golden. Bergamot and citrus brighten it with a sharp, zesty lift, while the spicy notes add dry warmth. The overall idea is a crisp, spicy and citrusy scent that feels clean and masculine, suited to daytime and smart casual wear.
