Bottega Veneta launches Alta, a new fragrance collection Composed of ten original Eau de Parfum

Bottega Veneta introduces Alta, a new fragrance collection featuring ten original Eau de Parfum creations. Alta marks the next chapter in the house’s olfactory journey, unfolding through different moments of the day and states of mind, from brightness and clarity to the warm, enveloping richness of the night. While the brand’s first fragrance collection was deeply rooted in Venetian heritage, Alta broadens its perspective, reimagining Italy as a whole and placing it in dialogue with the rest of the world.
Bottega Veneta Alta: a fragrance collection inspired by cultural exchange
At the heart of the collection is the concept of the Intrecciato Duo, an idea that pairs one ingredient from Italy, the house’s country of origin, with another sourced from different parts of the world. The result is a cross-cultural exchange expressed through fragrance. This evolution takes shape through the contrast between lightness and intensity, balancing citrus, aromatic and fresh notes with woods, resins and warmer, more enveloping accords. Unexpected notes such as stracciatella gelato, with its creamy nuances of vanilla and chocolate, further expand the idea of what the Italian olfactory imagination can evoke.
The ten fragrances in the Alta collection
Always Now combines the vibrancy of an Italian basil accord with the refined intensity of Bourbon vetiver essence from Madagascar.
Montebello draws inspiration from the house’s atelier gardens in Veneto, blending the brightness of blood orange with the delicacy and depth of North African neroli.
Balliamo evokes the atmosphere of a warm summer evening through the encounter of Italian white fig and the deep notes of American cedarwood.
Bare Morning intertwines the powdery softness of an Italian talc accord with the elegance of Oceanian sandalwood, creating an intimate, enveloping fragrance that feels like a second skin.
Slow Rise blooms on the skin with late-summer roses and French clary sage.
Ricordami reinterprets childhood nostalgia by pairing a stracciatella gelato accord with the deep notes of oakwood.
Moment After softens Italian leather accords with the delicate warmth of vanilla, suggesting a subtle and sophisticated sensuality.
Night Sounds combines an Italian saffron accord with Vietnamese benzoin to create a resinous, warm and deeply nocturnal fragrance.
Velvet Steps pairs the syrupy notes of Italian plum with the enveloping intensity of Spanish labdanum.
Crepuscolo, finally, captures the atmosphere of dusk by contrasting the salty brightness of Fior di Sale with the depth of South Asian oud.
Bottle Design: the Intrecciato weave becomes a collectible object
Bottega Veneta’s iconic Intrecciato leather weave is reinterpreted in a sculptural glass bottle that echoes the signature diagonal rhythm of the craftsmanship. The wooden cap and gold-finished ring draw inspiration from Venetian architecture and fine jewellery-making traditions, maintaining visual continuity with the house’s previous collections. Each bottle is refillable, available in 50ml and 100ml formats, and crafted using recycled glass, reinforcing the brand’s commitment to more responsible production.
Where to buy the New Bottega Veneta Alta collection
Available at Bottega Veneta boutiques and leading department stores worldwide, the Alta collection will be accompanied by a series of bespoke woven leather accessories. It is the most extensive fragrance launch in the house’s history, designed to reach an increasingly global audience while remaining faithful to the values and identity that have always defined the brand.
