Orchid Modena Contessa Eau de Parfum 85ml is a spicy-floral perfume for women, opening on warm anise and nutmeg before settling into a creamy musk and vanilla drydown. Built as an accessible interpretation of the popular Italian-inspired floral-amber category, it balances confident spice with a romantic, modern softness.

Who it's for
Modena Contessa suits women who like their perfume warm, slightly sweet and confident — the kind of fragrance that reads as a "going out" scent rather than a quiet daytime spritz. The pink pepper and anise opening keeps it from feeling too sugary, while the tonka-vanilla-ambroxan base gives it real staying power. Best in autumn and winter for evenings, dinners and occasions when you want a trail. A useful pick for fans of Italian-styled floral-ambers who'd like a generous 85ml bottle to get through a full season.
How to wear it
Spray onto pulse points — wrists, behind the ears, the base of the throat — from around 15 cm away, and add one mist to clothing for an extended trail. As an Eau de Parfum with an ambroxan-and-musk base, expect strong projection in the first two hours and a soft skin-scent that lingers six to eight hours.
