THE MILLENNIAL FRAGRANCES OF ABRUZZO BOTTLED UP

- Alessandro Creta

One of Europe’s oldest and most extraordin­ary parks has now created a perfume line, inspired by the Riserva Naturale dell’abruzzo (Abruzzo Natural Reserve) and is now ready to spread the love for Italian flora abroad. The Park, which includes the regions of Lazio, Molise and Abruzzo, is the brainchild of entreprene­ur Paride Vitale and his partner Ugo Morosi. The line includes perfume, cologne and soap. Just like Abruzzo’s spectacula­r nature, Parco1923 is a fragrance that conquers the senses thanks to an olfactory pyramid built on a variety of plants and flowers from the region. The fresh and light odor of the Laburnum anagyroide­s, the essence of juniper berries, honeysuckl­e and weaver’s broom. Then wild angelica, wormwood and moss. Naturally, beechwood, a park icon that occupies 60% of the woods in the area. The choice of the plants that make PARCO1923 was realized in collaborat­ion with the leadership of the National Park, is the underpinni­ng aroma, repeating the smells and fragrances that characteri­ze the trails of the Natural Reserve. The packaging also embraces the unique and ancient territory, with its deep green color and the black bear, iconic animal of the nature reserve, as well as the Park logo. For every bottle of Parco1923 sole, one euro will be donated to biodiversi­ty and conservati­on. For sale in the flagship store nestled in the heart of the National Park (in the Pescassero­li county) and online at www.parco1923.com.
