A crisp, citrus fragrance, the breeze brushing gently over the grass, flowers and shrubs of the Mediterranean, and golden reflections of the sun’s rays on the shimmering sea.
A fresh, lively, green scent with notes of Bergamot and Mandarin, and light flowery undertones of Jasmine and Narcissus.
All about this fragrance
Vibe check
The mood is an unhurried morning near the coast, with crushed greenery underfoot and sunlight sharpening the air. Bright mandarin and a saline edge bring an alert, open quality, while soft florals and woods keep the impression composed at conversational distance.
How to wear
A natural choice for spring and summer, when the citrus and green notes suit mild to warm air. Start with two or three sprays on the neck and forearms for an airy impression; apply beneath a light shirt if you prefer the floral and woody undertones closer to the skin.
Who it’s for
For those who favor citrus-led freshness with green, mineral and softly woody detail. It will particularly appeal to wearers who enjoy coastal fragrances but want vegetation and delicate flowers alongside the marine impression, rather than a purely aquatic character.

The nose
Lorenzo Villoresi is a Florentine perfumer whose work draws on travel, raw materials and the evocative power of scent. Known for the powdery softness of Teint de Neige and the richly layered character of Alamut, he moves between intimate textures and expansive imagined landscapes. In Aura Maris, that landscape takes a brighter form: Mediterranean citrus, coastal greenery and restrained floral warmth.
Lorenzo Villoresi’s story
Lorenzo Villoresi approaches perfume as a personal expression of memory, travel and cultural curiosity. Rooted in Florence and a tradition of bespoke fragrance, the house emphasizes in-house production, careful attention to materials and understated luxury, creating compositions that evoke places and emotions rather than follow passing trends.
Aura Maris’s concept
Aura Maris opened the Mare Nostrum collection, conceived around the Mediterranean and its historical, cultural and mythological associations. Its central image is a breeze passing through coastal grasses, flowers and shrubs while sunlight glints on the sea. Bergamot, mandarin and green notes give that landscape its brightness, with narcissus, jasmine and woods adding depth.
Extra info
Despite its sea-inspired name and imagery, Aura Maris belongs to the house’s citrus fragrance family. It was also the inaugural fragrance in the Mediterranean-inspired Mare Nostrum collection.
