The first Car Diffuser is created in order to enjoy a refined aesthetic and sensory experience when travelling.

Acqua di Parma, the symbol of the purest Italian style, and Poltrona Frau, synonymous with leather culture, research and design, present the new Car Diffuser, within the Airound collection.

An elegant designer article, devised, like the Smart Home Diffuser, by the multiprizewinning duo of designer GamFratesi, planned in every detail to offer an allround sensory experience. The result is a new original expression of the affinity of values between Acqua di Parma and Poltrona Frau, that for over 100 years have shared the passion for top craftsmanship and the ability to create new classic products.

The two historic Maisons, designed from the start in a modern style, meet the most sophisticated and up-to-date travel requirements. In a scenario where, thanks to technology, it is possible to telephone, listen to music, work or listen to an audio book, even while driving, there is the desire to experience inside the car a pleasant comfortable sensory atmosphere.

The new Car Diffuser combines formal purity, high-performance materials and unique scented compositions. Its circular shape recalls the iconic boxes of Acqua di Parma and is enhanced by the essential light design of the two parts that form it. The leather case in highly-prized PELLE FRAU®, with hot-printed logos of “Acqua di Parma” and “Poltrona Frau”, and the inside part that contains the refills of the Maison’s fragrances.

Both the mounting and the operation are simple and intuitive. The diffuser is easily attached to the car’s ventilation grille by means of a convenient magnetic support. By positioning the cursor to “On” and activating the car’s ventilation system, the cold diffusion of the fragrance is started by means of the air circulation in the Diffuser’s grilles. The various perfumes encapsulated in special polymer-based alcohol-free and solvent-free “pearls”, contained in turn in the refills that can be replaced at any time, by choosing the favourite perfume for each trip and journey.

Materials and colours extend and complete the sensory nature of the Car Diffuser. The covering in PELLE FRAU®, thanks to special workmanship and selected covers, has all the characteristics of safety and durability required by the car industry and keeps its exceptional softness and beauty intact. In the choice of colours of yellow, dark grey and brown, the leather case goes together in harmony with the inside in grey, to satisfy all styles.

Tactile and visual emotions that combine with the radiant freshness of the fragrances of the Acqua di Parma Home Collection. It is possible to load the Diffuser, choosing from nine compositions of the Maison. Luce di Colonia, Buongiorno, La Casa sul Lago, Oh, l’Amore, Aperitivo in Terrazza and Profumi dell’Orto, evocative of the most typical Italian moments. Arancia di Capri, Fico d’Amalfi, Mirto di Panarea, to find the breath of the magnificent landscapes of the Italian also when travelling. Original perfume suggestions also for the Milan fragrance, with the Poltrona Frau signature, and evocative with its modern sophisticated tones of the design capital.

A bright Italian style also for the Car Diffuser pack. The Maison’s iconic Parma yellow box, made of high-quality FSC-certified cardboard, displays on the label made of scrap powder from marble quarries the two logos “Poltrona Frau” and “Acqua di Parma”. Housed inside the elegant container made of soft darkest grey fabric is the Diffuser. The boxes of scented refills, to be chosen separately, are essential and elegant.

“Together with Poltrona Frau we have developed an interesting and successful project like the Smart Home Diffuser. It was natural, therefore, to continue with this creative co-operation to launch the new Car Diffuser. An article which, in tune with modern travel requirements, becomes an original and very carefully created synthesis between design, top craftsmanship and the art of Italian living, which can be breathed with the fragrances of our Home Collection. In this case, we’ve also entrusted the project to the sensitivity of GamFratesi, with the aim of bringing into a space like the interior of a car, where people spend a large part of the day, a unique multi-sensory experience”, says Laura Burdese, President and CEO and Acqua di Parma.

“Following the creation of the Home Diffuser - says Nicola Coropulis, CEO of Poltrona Frau - we decided to extend our collection, picturing a variation for the car world. Like its namesake for the home, the Car Diffuser is at the same time functional and decorative, a symbol of uniqueness and innovation as well as design and technology. Through Poltrona Frau Interiors in Motion we’ve been linked to the car industry for over thirty years now, committed to creating leather interiors for leading car manufacturers all over the world. Together with Acqua di Parma, we’re extremely proud to present a product expressly designed for this sector, a further symbol of the top-class craftsmanship of Poltrona Frau”.

The ideal perfume to find harmonious energy right at the start of the day and go through daily movements in a relaxed way.
