Pure, mysterious, and natural – these are the characteristics of our unique Acqua Alpes fragrances. What makes the Acqua Alpes fragrances so unique is the crystal-clear mountain water that emerges from the untouched depths of the Alps. We use this pure water as the core element of our fragrances, making them truly unique.
The clear mountain water has traveled for about two decades through numerous layers of rock before emerging. The passage through many rock layers not only naturally purifies the water but also enriches it with a wealth of minerals. The water, revitalized in this way, emerges from the Alps at a refreshing temperature of 4 degrees Celsius. This cool water has an excellent drinking quality by nature, which not every expensive mineral water can match.
Many locals therefore refer to the crystal-clear mountain water as "blue gold," to express the uniqueness and immeasurable value of this natural water.
The Alps are the largest freshwater reservoir in Europe and, as such, an area of special protection. In winter, the mountains store water in the form of snow and ice, and in the warmer summer months, they gradually release the stored water – but only after it has slowly seeped through the many layers of rock over decades.
This slow yet very steady and repetitive process is the secret behind the clarity of the pure water: The rock layers clean the water with each layer a little more and at the same time impart their valuable minerals to the water.
The mountain water is the best example of the old wisdom, "good things come to those who wait." Over its time in the Alps, the water is further refined, so that at the source it impresses with its unique quality. We want this unique quality for our fragrances as well. With its slightly elevated pH value, the mountain water is an ideal carrier for our fragrance notes, allowing the individual nuances to unfold in a particularly fine and noble way. The clear water is the basis for our fragrances, making our creations masterpieces that are second to none. We are the first and only perfume manufacturer in the world to use this incredibly valuable resource as the basis for our fragrances. Thanks to this noble base, enchantingly pure Acqua Alpes fragrances are created with harmonious notes and excellent quality that are immediately recognizable even to a refined nose.
