Simone Andreoli returns in 2025 with Apricot Innocence, a fragrance that captures the essence of sun-drenched stone fruit in its most pure and joyful form. This is not a shy, whisper of a scent; it’s a confident burst of apricot nectar wrapped in soft florals and warm musks. As the latest addition to the house’s growing portfolio, Apricot Innocence positions itself as a versatile, unisex Parfum Nectar that promises substantial longevity and a moderate, approachable sillage. The fragrance opens with a vivid cascade of sweet orange, apricot nectar, and exotic fruits — a combination that immediately signals a fruity gourmand leaning. The heart reveals a bouquet of osmanthus, jasmine sambac, and rose, adding a delicate floral texture that prevents the composition from becoming cloying. Finally, a base of amber and white musk provides a clean, slightly powdery finish that lingers on the skin for hours. With a price range of $180 to $258, Apricot Innocence enters a competitive space of luxury fruity florals. But does it deliver on its promise of innocence and indulgence? This review breaks down the notes, performance, and overall value to help you decide if this 2025 release deserves a place in your collection.
