Pal Zileri is an Italian luxury fashion house founded in 1970 in Quinto Vicentino, Italy. While primarily known for their high-end menswear and tailoring, the brand expanded into fragrances in the 1990s, creating sophisticated scents that reflect their commitment to Italian craftsmanship and elegance.

The brand’s fragrance journey began with the launch of Pal Zileri (1995), their first men’s fragrance. This aromatic fougère became an instant success with its refined blend of lavender, bergamot, and woody notes, establishing the brand’s signature sophisticated yet understated approach to perfumery.

Their most celebrated fragrance is Pal Zileri Collezione Privata (1998), which has achieved cult status among perfume enthusiasts. This oriental-woody composition features a luxurious combination of spices, woods, and amber, packaged in an elegant bottle with wooden accents that reflects the brand’s tailoring heritage.

Another significant release was Pal Zileri Cashmere e Ambra (2003), which became one of their best-selling fragrances. This oriental-spicy scent combines rich notes of cashmere wood, amber, and vanilla, creating a warm and sophisticated fragrance that embodies Italian luxury.

Pal Zileri Sartoriale (2009) pays homage to the brand’s tailoring roots. This woody-spicy fragrance, presented in a bottle designed to resemble a suit fabric swatch, has become another cornerstone of their fragrance collection.

The brand’s most recent successful launch was Pal Zileri Cerimonia (2014), a modern interpretation of classic Italian elegance featuring fresh citrus notes combined with sophisticated woody undertones. The fragrance captures the essence of formal Italian style.

Currently, their best-selling fragrances remain Collezione Privata and Cashmere e Ambra, both appreciated for their refined compositions and exceptional quality. The brand’s fragrances are particularly popular in Europe and the Middle East, where they are recognised for their sophisticated Italian style and attention to detail.

Despite changes in ownership (the brand was acquired by Mayhoola for Investments in 2016), Pal Zileri’s fragrance division maintains its commitment to quality and sophistication. Their perfumes continue to reflect the brand’s heritage in luxury menswear, with each scent designed to complement the elegant lifestyle associated with Italian tailoring.
