Ottavio and Rosita Missoni founded their knitwear business in 1953. The house became known for colour and pattern in knit.

The Wider Culture
Designer Fragrance

In the 1980s Italian fashion houses extended their names into fragrance, and miniatures carried those scents as samples and gifts.

Reading the Object
Notes of the Scent

The scent opens with pineapple, peach and bergamot, moves through jasmine, rose and tuberose, and settles on amber, sandalwood and vanilla. With age, it may have changed.

From fruit to amber.
