Camelia by Acqua di Parma: A soft serenity pulsing with purity, like a white flower blooming inside a cloud of light.
From the heart of the Italian house Acqua di Parma, Camelia is born as an olfactory hymn celebrating the purity of beauty and the calm of elegance.
It is not a loud fragrance … but a quiet presence that touches your senses before it catches the eye ...
A scent that whispers rather than shouts, seen through emotion rather than sight.
Camelia is part of the Signatures of the Sun collection, a line that translates the radiance of the Italian sun into refined fragrances built around rare ingredients.
The world first met it in 2019 as an Eau de Parfum, crafted just as Joelle Lerioux Patris envisioned.
Its opening notes sparkle like dew: Italian bergamot, young mandarin, a dash of pink pepper like morning spices, and cardamom as soft as nostalgia.
At its heart lies the camellia flower ... the undisputed queen of this perfume ... gracefully centered, wrapped in herbal sage that adds balance between delicate florals and green freshness.
The base settles into a whisper of benzoin and clean, white musk, leaving a sheer, silk-like trace on the skin.
Camelia is a summer, daytime scent ... ideal for casual or light formal wear.
Perfect for air-conditioned workdays, a quiet midday stroll, or simply as a “clean fragrance” after a nice shower.
Its projection is intimate, close to the skin … never intrusive, lingering gently for 4 to 6 hours before it fades in a soft silence.
In short, this perfume suits those who adore simplicity ... scents that don’t pretend to be anything but honest.
Yet … it’s not for everyone.
It’s for those who appreciate quiet detail and seek a feeling, not a performance.
“True beauty doesn’t scream ... it’s quietly noticed.”
Ahmed Hadi - Baghdad - IRAQ

Knock-knock-knockin' on heaven's door
Rarely do I experience a pictorial sensory impression in a fragrance as focused and memorable as here. This is all the more astonishing as I do not consider this monothematic approach to be characteristic of Acqua di Parma and its product portfolio. On the contrary, it is mostly about a lively kaleidoscope of everything that is generally classified as 'Italian': charming and well-dressed signors and signori who cut a fine figure in a summery piazza, if I may be permitted so much green-white-red cliché here.

This one is different. Hardly Italian. Something from the Far East. And a lot 'above the clouds'.

The camellia - originally native to Asia - symbolizes devotion and longing. It grows in partial shade and its fragrance is both fleeting and haunting, with a delicate, almost shy sweetness. And so Acqua di Parma's Camelia is also a fragrant, delicate fragrance full of youth and - and this is where the monothematic mentioned at the beginning comes into play - innocence and purity, located somewhere between elvish princess and childlike empress, as delicate as butterfly wings, ethereally bright and fine.

Conclusion: a fragrance like tissue paper and crane feathers, luminous white, fragrant and delicate. And like a shy knock on heaven's door.

A summer night's breeze
The fragrance:
Delicate citrus with a clear floral touch. Also wearable for jasmine skeptics. Feminine tendency.
The fragrance is fruity-sweet with a clean and elegant restraint.
Performance:
Sillage is non-existent. Therefore unfortunately overpriced in my opinion, unless you enjoy a fragrance that is very close to the body. It has the pleasant tendency to come out of nowhere even after several hours.

Floral scent right in the between of fresh and heavy. Quite forgettable with poor longevity.

Starts off with fresh citrus and a gourmand note (due to cardemom), later on the rose develops. It's ok but not great, and a bit feminine.
