One artisan-crafted home fragrance line seems to perfume the chicest places around Italy. Find it at Rome’s beloved Pierluigi restaurant—known for its fish and intimate Piazza de ‘Ricci’ square off of the storied Via Giulia—and at the impeccable Palazzina Grassi hotel in Venice. Elegant and discreet, Dr. Vranjes’s perfumes can be recognized by their arched, mouth-blown glass bottle, modeled after Brunelleschi’s Dome—Florence’s tallest. Founded by Dr. Paolo Vranjes and his wife Anna Maria, the company’s extensive collection of 40 fragrances are greatly influenced by the scents of Florence—specifically its lush gardens.
Here, a tour of 5 must-see Florentine gardens that served as their inspiration.
