If I were in Italy

Don’t you agree, that a new fragrance always kind of marks a new chapter? I’ve loved my Ermenegildo Zegna Haitian Vetiver scent for a very long time now, but as a brand ambassador, Zegna recently gave me another fragrance called Acqua di Bergamotto. As part of the launch of the cologne, I let it inspire me to create a post, truly filled with Italian vibes, all guided by the question: what do I do, when I’m vacating in Italy!? I let this story come to life in the middle of NYC, but I hope you can see the Mediterranean flair through and through 😉 First, and possibly most importantly: shopping. We all

know the beauty of Italian design, so one place you will find me for sure are traditional, Italian boutiques. But the Italians like to take it easy, enjoy the beauty of life and their country, ranging from land to architecture. Essentially, you’re always outside, whether you’re hanging out on one of the many beautiful bridges, reading or playing soccer, the latter also easily being one of my favorites — you really get to see the Italian passion when you see them on the soccer field, haha. So covered in the scent, and dressed with an Italian attitude, I brought my very own Italy to New York — how would you spend your time on an Italian vacation?
