Bvlgari’s origin dates back to 1884. It was established by Sotirio Bulgari, a very fine and talented silversmith. The shop first offered elegant and exquisite silver jewelry collections. Then, they gradually evolved and looked for innovative ways to make their collections more luxurious. Bvlgari strived to perfect the art of making jewelry which the brand also applied to its other luxury products, including fragrances.
In the early 1990s, Bvlgari decided to join the perfume industry. It launched its first fragrance, Parfumee au The Vert, in 1992. The Vert is a refreshing and light scent of green tea and citrus created by a renowned perfumer Jean Claude Ellena. Since then, Bvlgari has partnered with several perfumers to launch luxurious perfumes and colognes worldwide; the most notable are the creations of Alberto Morillas.
Bvlgari colognes embody the brand’s timeless charm and classic elegance. Each bottle is glamorous, masculine, modern, and intoxicating, perfect for contemporary and sophisticated gentlemen.
