I love coming across luxury brands that I was unaware had a perfume collection, and that’s what happened with my recent in-store trip to ETRO.
Founded in 1968, ETRO is an icon of Italian style known for its eclectic designs. From funky bags and purses to eye-catching scarves and sunglasses, they have created something with flair.
The ETRO perfume collection is also varied. Via Verri is a romantic powdery floral; Udaipur is a magnolia delight; and Rajasthan is an exotic blend of spices and musk.

Fresh and floral, Shantung Eau de Parfum, named after the luxurious silk fabric, mirrors the texture’s elegance and richness in its composition.
