Parco Palladiano IV: Azalea is a softly gourmand floral with a distinctive chestnut warmth and subtle sweetness. It opens with a hint of citrus and peach before settling into a creamy, nutty base layered with vanilla and a soft white floral note. The overall effect is natural and balanced—neither overly sweet nor harshly bitter—which gives it a timeless and understated elegance. Some describe it as reminiscent of warm, golden honeyed cotton or an aromatic bath, while others note a peculiar 'dusty old box' quality, though many find it cohesive and refined. The scent is quietly complex and wears close to the skin with moderate sillage, showing well in summer and cooler seasons alike. It contributes a romantic, intimate aura rather than a bold presence.
