Launched in 1927 Memories of Italy. Caron was keen to immortalise the quaint charm of Bellagio the little Italian town perched high above Lake Como. Warm hearted & lively this fragrance is evocative of fields of carnations drenched in sunlight punctuated here & there with roses jasmine violet & lily of the valley. Bellodgia a shard of light stolen from the simmering Italian sun bundled in blossoms to wrap its wearer in the unburdened lightness of summer. Bellodgia a true fragrance work of art. The head note alone is composed of 100 different extracts & reflects the perfume art of Caron at its best. Rose jasmine violets & lily of the valley award this fragrance its strong personality.
