The first supercar in history

When Lamborghini debuted the Miura in 1966, it redefined what a high-performance road vehicle could be, breaking GT tradition with radical architecture and performance figures that seemed surreal at the time. Built with a V12 behind the driver and a design from Bertone, it was the world’s first supercar that set Lamborghini on a path of fearless innovation. Today, 60 years later, the Miura remains a benchmark of automotive design and cultural relevance, with various examples earning prestigious awards across the years. This year, Lamborghini will celebrate by retracing its origins and evolution, hosting a series of festivities worldwide, including a Lamborghini Polo Storico Tour that’s scheduled for 6 to 10 May 2026 in Northern Italy.

Fendi’s Sogni d’Oro fragrance

Like the sun setting over Rome, cloaking the entire city in a golden hue, this new fragrance by Fendi is simply radiant. As the olfactory interpretation of the House’s signature colour, the Sogni d’Oro embodies the shade with lively Italian bergamot, leather accord and sensual, soft iris, resulting in something bold and intimate, like a fragrance that lingers like a sweet dream.
