This “Italian date” is a neo-lemon that surprises your nose with zigs and zags. This is an aromatic gourmand through the lens of Italian abundance, with notes of pesto, fennel, olive oil, oregano and pistachio. And don’t forget the scoop of ice cream! Very appe-teasing.
Perfumers: Camille Chemardin, Amelie Bourgeois, Elia Chiche
All about this fragrance
Vibe check
An afternoon rendezvous that stretches over a plate of pesto pasta, with lemon still bright on the palate. Rital Date brings an appetite-led kind of flirtation: lively citrus at first, then savory herbs and creamy pistachio that make the encounter feel relaxed rather than formal.
How to wear
The citrus and aromatic greenery suggest spring and mild summer weather, while the creamy pistachio gives the composition substance beyond a simple citrus refresh. For the original oil-based roll-on, begin with a small application to wrists or neck and let it settle before adding more; use a lighter touch in heat so the savory gourmand facets do not dominate.
Who it’s for
For those who enjoy citrus but want something less conventional than a crisp lemon cologne. Its pesto, olive oil and pistachio contrasts suit adventurous gourmand tastes, especially an appetite for herbal, savory compositions rather than straightforward dessert sweetness.

The nose
Amélie Bourgeois, Camille Chemardin and Elia Chiche of the independent fragrance studio FLAIR jointly created the original Rital Date. Their composition treats gourmand perfumery as more than sweetness, bringing culinary greenery, savory ingredients and creamy pistachio into a bright lemon framework.
Collaborators
Amélie Bourgeois, Camille Chemardin and Elia Chiche share the formula credit for the original extrait, translating the limoncello-and-pesto brief into its citrus, aromatic and gourmand contrasts.
Versatile’s story
Versatile Paris builds fragrance around recognizable pleasures: food, drinks, dates and unhurried everyday moments. Its genderless, food-inspired compositions favor curiosity over solemn luxury, while the original portable roll-ons encourage choosing a scent to suit the mood rather than committing to one permanent signature.
Rital Date’s concept
Rital Date draws on Coralie and Pierre’s love story, expressed through an unusually culinary brief of limoncello, tomato leaf and pesto. The resulting neo-lemon composition turns an Italian date into scent: sparkling citrus, savory herbs and olive oil, followed by the creaminess of pistachio ice cream.
Extra info
The original formula genuinely includes garlic essence, alongside olive oil and sesame CO₂ extract. It contains 47 natural and synthetic fragrance ingredients. The 2026 spray is a separate reinterpretation by Camille Chemardin, not simply the original roll-on transferred into an atomizer.
