On the Isolino, a tiny island in the heart of Lake Maggiore in Northern Italy, lies an elegant nineteenth-century villa surrounded by a luscious garden amid placid lake waters. It was in the golden years of the early 20th century that this garden was the setting for one of the most intriguing love stories, that of the ravishing princess Vittoria Colonna and Umberto Boccioni, the vibrant young painter who was among the founders of the artistic movement of Futurism.
Nearly a century later, when the time arrived for Eau d’Italie to create its first feminine floral fragrance, there was no doubt: it had to be a real Italian floral with the qualities of a classic, but with an innovative contemporary twist: an avant-garde romantic floral...
This was the inspiration for “Au Lac” (“By the lake”): a fragrance that tells of a passionate love affair in a gorgeous Italian garden in the middle of summer, the air filled with the scent of flowers and surrounded by the peaceful waters of a lake. To create these exquisitely beautiful notes Eau d’Italie has worked with legendary nose Alberto Morillas, to deliver a magnificent fragrance capable of blending the deep beauty of a truly feminine floral into the vibrant, dynamic frame of a Futurist painting.
