The label
Dolce & Gabbana drew inspiration from the color of the magma to make the capsule and the grosgrain ribbon of the box, while the graphics on the label and packaging refer to the traditional motifs and styles of the Sicilian cart. However, Etna remains the true protagonist at the center of the composition, immersed in a suggestive, almost fairytale landscape, which recalls the chivalrous tales of the storytellers and the theatrical scenes of the Opera dei Pupi. Gold was also used a lot - just look at the logos printed on the tissue paper that wraps the bottle and on the collar - just to celebrate the sublime nature of Etna, as unique as the Cuordilava it inspired.
