MISSONI DONNA (1982 VERSION) ORIGINAL WOMEN’S EAU DE TOILETTE 125 ml 4.2 FL.OZ.

It is the first women's fragrance launched by MISSONI PROFUMI.

A beloved fragrance in our Collection

AWARD: Best Packaging of the Year (1982), awarded by the Fragrance Foundation.

A wonderful women's fragrance from another era, made with exceptional raw materials—a fragrance that made history, with a single drop lasting over 10 hours.

It took 1.5 years to create the fragrance, along with Rosita and Ottavio Missoni's countless trips to America to visit the headquarters of fragrance house International Flavors & Fragrances (IFF).

MISSONI PROFUMI belonged to the Max Factor Group (Coty Inc), and the fragrances were available at ORLANE Paris stands; production took place at ORLANE's laboratories.

The box was made in the USA and features patterns inspired by the fashion house's famous knits, in bold colors—pink, violet, green, ochre, blue, purple and burgundy—arranged in stripes, all with a glossy finish.

The bottle is rectangular, made of heavy, clear glass, with MISSONI inside a circle, all in white; this jewel of a bottle is a delight to behold.

Black, crescent-shaped clasp.

The cap comes off easily with a twist.

The product was distributed in Greece by SPEL SA Perfumery (SPYROS LITOS – PHARMACIST), 7 Palaiōn Patrōn Germanou St., Klafthmonos Square, Athens, and we sold it exclusively as authorized distributors.

PERFUMER: Maurice Roucel, using raw materials from International Flavors & Fragrances (IFF).
