Accento
A fresh floral woody gourmand fragrance built around bergamot, lemon, grapefruit, iris, jasmine. Scent profile not yet written in our editorial pass — the listed notes are the most reliable summary of the wear character until that's filled in.
Erba Pura
Bursts open with bright lemon and bergamot cut through by ripe, almost candied peach — the citrus is sharp but brief. The heart softens quickly into a creamy jasmine-rose accord that never reads as powdery or old-fashioned. Vanilla and amber take over the dry-down fully, warm and thick, anchored by a clean musk that extends sillage for hours without going heavy. Projection is generous but wearable — you'll be noticed at ten feet, not thirty — Warm-weather date nights or any occasion where you want to smell expensive and approachable at once.
How they overlap
Accento and Erba Pura share 5 notes (lemon, bergamot, jasmine, amber, and others). The same note name doesn't always mean the same scent — different houses use different vanillas, different woods, different musks — but a multi-note shared spine usually does indicate genuinely-comparable wear character. The remaining notes (3 unique to Accento, 4 unique to Erba Pura) are where the divergence happens.
