The second fragrance launch from Oscar de la Renta is Bella Tropicale.

Reminiscent of Oscar de la Renta’s gardens in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic, the brand said the fragrance channels notes similar to that of a blossoming tropical flower.

Inspired by the Bella collection, the Bella Tropicale bottle contains a twist on a traditional floral plaque with a pattern featuring a tropical garden with detailing in a shade of bright coral. The company said that the bottle is finished off with a traditional Bella cap in a gold tone designed to evoke the sun's warmth. 

The fragrance contains pineapple fresca, red coral and citrine accord, a heart of a ylang-ylang, coconut water and orange flower absolute, and a base of tonka bean, sandalwood and ocean mist musk.
