Gritti
Gritti is a family-run Italian house led by Luca Gritti. Its story goes back to his ancestor Alvise Gritti, a 16th-century merchant who travelled between Venice and Constantinople. The range runs from the southern Italian I Turchesi line to rich Gritti Privé extraits, and some come as testers. Every bottle is checked before it ships, with its batch code left readable.

About Gritti
Gritti is a family-run Italian perfume house led by Luca Gritti. It takes its story from his ancestor Alvise Gritti, a 16th-century merchant and diplomat who travelled between Venice and Constantinople. Before launching his own brand, Luca Gritti ran the family business, making perfumes for other cosmetic brands.
The Gritti lines, in plain words
- Black Collection: the first perfumes under the Gritti name. It includes 19-68, the house's olfactory self-portrait of Luca Gritti, named after his birth date.
- White Collection: floral, fruity and gourmand scents such as Chantilly, Tutu Blanc, Jacqueline and Gossip Night.
- I Turchesi: a tribute to southern Italy, with Pomelo Sorrento, Costiera, Siracusa and Arancia Ambrata.
- Ivy Collection: heady blends such as Mango Aoud, Violet Venom and Super Nova.
- Gritti Privé: extraits dressed in velvet and 24-carat gold, such as Florian and Hysterica.
Gritti bottles at AZ & CO
Good places to start: 19-68 for bergamot, lavender and vetiver over tonka and musk; Pomelo Sorrento for pomelo, grapefruit and green tea; Chantilly for strawberry, melon and coconut over vanilla; and Mango Aoud for mango and guava over oud and amber.
Is Gritti sold as testers at AZ & CO?
Some are. 19-68 and Mango Aoud have a tester option on the same page as the boxed bottle. Chantilly's tester is the Eau de Parfum while its boxed bottle is the Extrait, so check which one you pick. Gossip Night is offered as a tester. Our tester vs boxed guide explains the difference.
How do I check a Gritti bottle is original?
Gritti puts real care into its packaging, from handmade caps on the White Collection to velvet boxes for Gritti Privé, so rough finishing is a warning sign. After that, compare the batch codes and run through the rest of our guide to spotting a fake perfume. Every bottle is checked before it ships, with its batch code left readable. If it is not genuine, we collect it free and refund every dirham.
Which Gritti perfume is best for summer in the UAE?
Start with I Turchesi. Going by the notes, Pomelo Sorrento (pomelo, grapefruit, green tea) and Costiera (bergamot, rosemary, orange, sea notes), the house's homage to the Amalfi Coast, are the brightest. 19-68 is the fresh pick from the Black Collection. Mango Aoud and the Privé extraits are richer and better kept for cooler nights.
