Among the trails of Elba Island and the refreshing breath of the sea, 25 years ago an adventure began, destined to become forever entwined with the very essence of this region, and which, even after much time has passed, keeps its connection to the island unchanged. It was an ordinary day, yet for Fabio, Marco, and Chiara, a stroll among the myrtles and broom following a boat excursion ignited a collective dream: encapsulating the beauty around them into an Eau de Parfum. This is how the family company Acqua dell’Elba came to be, along with the “Classica” line, a collection initially made up of two Eau de Parfums, one masculine and one feminine, which quickly turned into a love letter to the sea.
The inspiration for this first creation came from an ancient Roman ship, the wreck of which, discovered more than 30 years earlier in the Gulf of Procchio, had preserved the stopper of a perfume vial for centuries; a symbol that became the emblem of a project destined to sail beyond every boundary, while maintaining deep roots in the Tuscan artisanal perfumery tradition and the landscapes of the Mediterranean.
Our journey from early creations to new olfactory explorations
In that little workshop in Marciana Marina, almost by the sea, the first step of a journey filled with challenges, creativity, and passion was taken, and the green “Acqua dell’Elba” became the visual hallmark of a brand that, year after year, would win over many hearts. Today, 25 years after its birth, Acqua dell’Elba is preparing to sail towards new horizons. To celebrate this milestone, there will be many surprises and revelations that will once again tell the story of the evolution of that dream born amidst the fragrant paths of Elba Island and its crystal-clear sea. The “Classica” line, with its perfumes for men and women, and products with the same olfactory notes, was the starting point of this adventure which, over time, has been enriched with many other nuances: personal and home fragrances, bath and body products, fabrics and accessories, sunscreen, and collections dedicated to weddings and businesses.
A journey that has never been interrupted, but has charted new routes, continuing to explore new olfactory and creative possibilities, guided by a love for the island, for the sea, and by the desire to give everyone, every day, a fragment of Mediterranean beauty.
