I am passionate about Antonia’s Flowers, my favourite perfume of all time and the only one I have used in decades. When it was discontinued, the comments section of this blog post blew up with comments from distraught fans. Antonia’s other perfumes were Tiempe Passate, Floret, Rokka (for men) and Sogni del Mare
In my happiest news of recent weeks, Tiempe Passate (also by Antonia) will be back in the summer. Yay! Subscribe for updates here
Antonia Bellante is a florist (her shop was called Antonia’s Flowers) who moved into making the most glorious fragrances. I read somewhere that she wanted Antonia’s Flowers perfume to smell like her shop when she opened it in the morning. I am not sure if that is true but she does freesias better than any other perfumer.
