Aquolina
Aquolina is an Italian body-care and fragrance brand created by Selectiva in 2001. Its defining theme became gourmand scent translated into everyday beauty rituals. The brand's principal fragrance is Pink Sugar, a sweet Eau de Toilette launched in 2004 with caramel, vanilla, candyfloss, and red berries.
Brand story and character
Aquolina appeared within Selectiva in 2001. The brand history presents it as the idea of an Italian family connected with beauty and body care for more than a century, but does not name specific founders. Its products are positioned as Made in Italy, while the range brings together body care and fragrance formats.
The gourmand theme became the foundation of Aquolina's identity. The brand states that it was the first to introduce this concept into an everyday beauty ritual. That claim to precedence remains the brand's own description, although the chosen direction is clearly reflected in the range: names and scents repeatedly refer to sweets, fruit, vanilla, and chocolate.
Pink Sugar was released in 2004 as an Eau de Toilette and became Aquolina's signature fragrance. A group report describes its trail through caramel, vanilla, candyfloss, and red berries. The bottle was inspired by a lollipop, so the visual image directly continues the compositional theme—playful, sweet, and immediately recognisable.
The line did not end with the original release. Lollilove and Lollipink are presented as further developments of Pink Sugar: they retain a connection to its original character while addressing different fragrance preferences. A related style does not make them identical to the original, so the complete version name matters.
Across Aquolina's wider catalogue, the gourmand approach extends to shower gels, body milk, scented water, and hair products. This explains the idea of an “everyday ritual”: scent accompanies several stages of body care rather than existing only in an Eau de Toilette bottle. The year and creator of Pink Sugar are not documented to the same degree: a corporate report establishes the release date, while the perfumer is not named in the reviewed materials.
