Accademia del Profumo: Here are the “Best” of 2019

The winners of the 2019 Accademia del Profumo award were revealed on May 14 at Milan, in the elegant setting of the Palazzo Mezzanotte. The prestigious event, now in its 30th edition, renews its mission every year: enhancing and promoting the culture of perfume, promoting the development of the industry in Italy.

With over 150,000 votes, collected from January 21 to April 13 through the web and social channels and the special “ring and win” flyers available in 1,000 Italian perfumeries, consumers awarded the title of Best Perfume of the Year. A VIP jury composed of exponents of the world of art, culture, entertainment and sport instead selected the winners for the “Best communication” category, while a shortlist of experts in the sector, including members of the Academy del Profumo, beauty editors/bloggers, retail exponents, made up the technical jury that selected the “best” women’s and men’s perfumes in the categories “Olfactory Creation”, “Perfume made in Italy”, “Packaging”, “Exclusive big brand perfumery collection” and “Scent of Artistic Perfumery”.
