Orto Parisi Boccanera is a Parfum launched in 2014, created by Alessandro Gualtieri. Boccanera opens with Cacao Pod, Pimiento, Pepper, and Ginger, settles into a heart of Jasmine, and dries down to a base of Dark Chocolate, Sugar Cane, Musk, and Leather. Orto Parisi's Boccanera carries an Acquired verdict, a warm spicy-led wear.

Divisive, powerful, and utterly unique, Boccanera is for the boldest among us. It's not a crowd-pleaser and definitely not a blind buy, but if you dare to wear it, prepare for an experience that's both challenging and addictive.

Best Occasions

Best For:

Also Works:
Casual

Given its intense dark chocolate and spicy accords, plus notorious Orto Parisi performance, Boccanera is too strong for the office. It's perfect for a date or formal evening where its bold, seductive nature can shine, but too much for casual wear and certainly not for sport.

About

Boccanera opens with a fiery kick of pimiento and ginger, quickly giving way to a rich, unsweetened dark chocolate accord. Hints of jasmine weave through the spicy cacao, while a deep, animalic leather and patchouli base emerges, grounded by cedar and a subtle touch of vanilla sweetness as it dries down. It’s a complex journey from initial spice to a lingering, mysterious warmth.
