Italian fragrance influencer Dario Piccirillo's iPiccirilli brand launched Shocking Bull, a high-impact extrait de parfum inspired by a wildly popular caffeinated alcoholic drink, the Red Bull Vodka.
This extrait de parfum is a vibrant, intoxicating blend of juicy red fruit notes and boozy vodka, creating a playful yet sophisticated opening. The heart bursts with a medley of sweet berries and tropical fruits, evoking nostalgic bubblegum. As it settles, the scent transforms into a creamy embrace of cotton candy, vanilla, and soft sandalwood, leaving a sensual, musky trail that feels both comforting and alluring.
Although packaged in a pocket-sized 30ml format, iPiccirilli perfumes are highly concentrated, impactful, and attention-grabbing—and formulated to last and linger. With its latest launch, iPiccirilli asks, "When was the last time a perfume truly shocked you?"
