for her
The epitome of femininity as narrated by the queens of flowers: Rosa centifolia and Rosa Damascena, crowned by powdery Ylang Ylang and Florentine Iris, with touches of Jasmine and mountain Narcissus, Violet leaves, Blackcurrant and oriental woods.
All about this fragrance
Vibe check
Donna suits an evening when conversation settles into close proximity but your presence remains assured. Its full rose bouquet and powdery iris suggest the softness of a silk blouse, while narcissus and woods keep that softness from feeling demure.
How to wear
Mild to cool weather gives this rich floral profile room to unfold without emphasizing its weight. Start with one or two sprays on the torso or wrists; the generous bouquet calls for restraint in close quarters. In warmer weather, use a lighter application and let the powdery floral character remain nearer the skin.
Who it’s for
For lovers of substantial floral perfumes, especially rose bouquets with powdery iris and a warm woody frame. Donna will appeal to those who prefer classical richness and sensual floral texture over sheer petals, sugary sweetness or minimalist freshness.
Release year
1994
The nose
Lorenzo Villoresi is a Florentine perfumer whose independent approach draws on extensive exploration of raw materials and the aromatic traditions encountered during his travels. His compositions often combine richly layered flowers, spices, woods and powdery textures; Teint de Neige is among his best-known creations. In Donna, his authorship finds a classical expression through a generous rose bouquet framed by iris and woods.
Lorenzo Villoresi’s story
Lorenzo Villoresi approaches perfumery as a personal, culturally informed craft rooted in Florence. The house emphasizes in-house production, careful material selection and enduring design, placing the fragrance itself ahead of conspicuous decoration. Its aesthetic brings together Italian craftsmanship and influences from Middle Eastern aromatic traditions.
Donna’s concept
Donna belongs to the house’s early personal-fragrance collection. Its central idea is femininity expressed through flowers: centifolia and damask roses form the core, surrounded by powdery Florentine iris, ylang-ylang, jasmine and mountain narcissus. Violet leaves, blackcurrant and woods give the bouquet contrast beyond its classical floral theme.
Extra info
Donna brings together two named rose varieties, Rosa centifolia and Rosa damascena, rather than presenting rose as a single undifferentiated note. It shares the house’s signature hexagonal bottle design and remains part of the official Eau de Toilette offering.
