Who we are
Water of Sardinia. Isoladentro.
Authentic, pure and wild, Acqua di Sardegna was born from listening to the deep identity of an ancient island and searching for the scents of its true nature that still manages to find space between the sky and the sea. This is how the Maison gives life to evocative stylistic notes that can transport you to our land in an instant.

CREATIVE DIRECTION
Endless routes and one man's dream.
Nature and culture are two sides of the same coin. Mauro Aprea, the director and artistic creator of all Acqua di Sardegna fragrances made by skillfully combining and blending instinct and research, creativity and care, is firmly convinced of this. After traveling the seas of the Mediterranean, he landed on the island to decide to stop in Alghero and found his own Maison. Today, with his perfumes he celebrates Sardinia and its people. With Mediterranean essences he composes fragrances that evoke the most authentic island, the colors, the waves, the silence, the wind and the beauty of this land.
We are custodians through the scents of Sardinian history, traditions and nature.
Sardinia is our inspiration, the center of our every creation. We believe that taking care of it, and preserving its history, nature and traditions is a duty. We do this by respecting it, making it known and appreciated.

OUR HISTORY
The stores, the maison, and the artistic direction of Acqua di Sardegna
Acqua di Sardegna was the first perfume maison to tell the whole story of the richness of our island.
Since 2008, with wisdom and passion it has been creating fragrances and essences loved all over the world, thanks to the guidance of founder and creative director Mauro Aprea and the excellence of the best international master perfumers. The design, devised for each package, reveals careful attention to detail and renders a faithful image of the unspoiled nature from which it takes its inspiration. Alghero is the place where everything took shape, a special place where history and nature mingle between the Aragonese ramparts and the sea foam that caresses them. It was here that we established our headquarters, and found inspiration for our first perfume line, ACQUA Eau de parfum for women, men and unisex. A citrusy breath, fresh and light as a sea breeze.
Between 2010 and 2016 we created new collections, inspired by the determined and proud character of Sardinian women and men (Maijda); by the hidden, wild places that Sardinia keeps intact through time (Desvélos); by the refined, Mediterranean atmosphere of a Jet Set of yesteryear, when the Gallura coast was a secret landing place for a few connoisseurs (Scalo Porto Cervo); by the scents of the sun and the color of the sea (Smeralda).
In 2017 our Maison gives birth to a luxury collection, the first niche line
Every day we continue to dedicate it to researching and experimenting with new olfactory compositions to make you experience unexpected sensory emotions.
At Officina Profumiera Sarda www.officinaprofumierasarda.com, we believe that perfumes should be more than just an olfactory experience; they should be a sensory journey that stimulates mind, body and soul. Every drop of our perfumes is imbued with passion, dedication and creativity, transforming the ordinary into the extraordinary.
