Daphne Meli by Zanini is a Citrus Aromatic fragrance for women and men. This is a new fragrance. Daphne Meli was launched in 2024. The nose behind this fragrance is Philippo Zanini. The fragrance features Buddha's hand, Lemon Blossom, Fir Resin, Chestnut, Jasmine, Beeswax, Hyssop, Pollen, Lemon, Honey, Yuzu, Wool, Laurels, Calamansi, Mandarin and Black locust. Daphne Meli by Zanini is a limited-edition fragrance composed around aromatic greenery, citrus, and honeyed nuances. The scent combines laurel, herbs and resins with a bright medley of lemon, yuzu, calamondin, American lemon and Buddha's hand, accented by lemon blossom and floral tones of jasmine and robinia. Notes of beeswax, honey and pollen introduce a waxy, nectar-like facet, while chestnut, fir resin and an unusual sheep wool accord add texture and a more earthy, tactile dimension. The perfume appears to draw conceptual inspiration from mythic and poetic imagery, hinted at by the accompanying quote from Yannis Ritsos’ "Helen," evoking laurel, ritual objects and fading light. Issued as a very small run of 42 pieces, it presents itself as an intimate, niche composition with a citrus-aromatic structure enriched by resinous and animalic undertones.
