Every Florentine knows this special lion: Marzocco. This noble heraldic creature, one of the enduring symbols of Florence, holds a shield bearing the famous Florentine lily. The original sculpture, created in 1420 by Donatello, can still be admired today in the Museo del Bargello, while its sandstone replica proudly stands in front of the Palazzo Vecchio on the iconic Piazza della Signoria.

The Florentine lily itself is a stylized representation of the iris flower, a symbol deeply connected to the city’s heritage. Even the violet-colored bottle of Roberto Ugolini’s Marzocco pays tribute to Florence, echoing both the city's traditions and the famous colors of ACF Fiorentina, Florence's beloved football club.

The Fragrance

Like the magnificent mane of the proud Marzocco shining beneath the Italian sun, the fragrance opens with vibrant citrus notes that capture the spirit of an Italian summer. Mandarin, lime, and lemon create a sparkling, energetic introduction that immediately evokes warmth, light, and vitality.

At its heart, orange blossom and jasmine radiate elegance and nobility. Their luminous floral character pays homage to the Marzocco itself: powerful, regal, and timeless. Refined and captivating, these notes form the sophisticated soul of the composition.

The fragrance settles into a beautifully balanced base where spicy vanilla nuances meet the mystical depth of patchouli. Cedarwood, powdery musk, and precious woods provide structure, warmth, and lasting refinement. Rich without being heavy, the base creates a distinguished and memorable trail.

With this composition, the spirit of the Marzocco awakens once again after nearly six centuries. An olfactory renaissance for lovers of exceptional perfumery.
