22 October 2025 - There’s a scent that anyone who has ever ridden a Vespa will remember, the unmistakable aroma of two-stroke fuel mix. From that essence comes MISCELA NOSTALGIA, the second drop of the AL VENTO collection - an elegant and authentic tribute from those who have made Vespa a way of life. A name that is a statement of intent, a contemporary reinterpretation of the era of Vespa rallies and afternoons spent polishing the scooter’s frame. It is also a way of looking to the future through the lens of Vespa’s heritage, that since 1946 has embodied a pop culture icon gone global.
The garments in MISCELA NOSTALGIA are designed to be lived in with the same carefree spirit that comes from riding a Vespa. The oversized jersey tops, with soft lines and generous volumes, feature graphics that jump out of a 1970s or 1980s photo album with technical codes, racing logos, vintage slogans, and nods to Vespa gatherings. Among the prints, the iconic claim returns: “Chi Vespa mangia le mele. Chi non Vespa no.” (“Those who Vespa eat the apples. Those who don’t, don’t.”) a cult classic of Italian advertising, brought back in both print and embroidery, as a symbol of an identity that stands the test of time.
Inspired by rally jackets and emblematic of a generation of Vespa riders, the cargo field jacket with patches represents the heart of the drop. With shaped pockets, hand-applied patches, and custom details, the jacket tells the story of Vespa culture - one made of badges, flags, and dreams on two wheels. The look is completed by cargo trousers and a utility-inspired cargo mini skirt. The drop also includes a deep-blue denim cargo jacket paired with wide-leg jeans, adding a versatile touch to the collection, alongside a shearling jacket embroidered with “Miscela Nostalgia”, perfect for any urban adventure.
To round off the offering, a selection of individual patches allows you to personalise your garments or your Vespa. MISCELA NOSTALGIA is a journey through time, a meeting point between culture and contemporaneity. Because those who Vespa, know. And those who don’t, can still discover it.

To expand the sensory experience, Vespa introduces two scented candles, two stories, two ways to ignite memory and let fragrance guide you. MISCELA NOSTALGIA captures the essence of travel with notes of bergamot, lavender, and leather, warmed by accents of patchouli and tonka bean. AL VENTO instead celebrates the freedom of open-air living with fresh notes of basil and freshly cut grass, sweetened by fig leaf and grounded by cedarwood.
The Miscela Nostalgia drop is available at VESPA THE EMPTY SPACE in Milan - an immersive, innovative environment conceived as an extension of the Vespa world, where fashion, design, and lifestyle come together in a uniquely distinctive space. Here visitors can also discover Miscela Nostalgia Vespa ground coffee, available exclusively: an enveloping aroma that accompanies moments of pause with the scent of memories and freedom. Its packaging, inspired by the steel of Vespa’s metal body, evokes tradition and makes this blend truly unique - uniting flavour with the memory of travel. A place and an experience to be lived to the fullest, immersed in the free and creative spirit that has always defined Vespa.
