Profumum Roma Aqua E Zucchero EDP
Description
Acqua e Zucchero is sugar water made into perfume: forest fruits and orange blossom over a soft, sugary vanilla. One of Profumum Roma's earliest scents, released in 2002, it takes its name from the Italian for "water and sugar". Profumum builds it from three materials: forest fruits, orange blossom and vanilla. The berries give it a juicy, jammy start, the orange blossom adds a bright floral lift, and the vanilla keeps everything soft. Many wearers compare it to cotton candy and berries, but the orange blossom keeps it lighter and cleaner than that suggests.
