Acqua di Parma Colonia
Dámský
Acqua di Parma Colonia by Acqua di Parma is a Citrus fragrance for women and men. Acqua di Parma Colonia was launched in 1916. Acqua di Parma started as a small factory in Parma. The first fragrance was created in 1916, Colonia, and at the beginning it was used to perfume gentlemen\'s handkerchiefs. Colonia became a real symbol of Italian chic among American and European celebrities in the pre-war (1930\'s) and post-war (1950\'s) years. Cary Grant and David Niven, Ava Gadner and Eva Turner, later joined by Audrey Hepburn, were among the passionate admirers of Colonia. From a small factory, Acqua di Parma grew into a prominent house with wide range distribution. Acqua Di Parma Colonia was presented as a citrus fragrance. It was composed of lavender, rosemary, Sicilian citrus, Bulgarian rose, jasmine, amber and light musk. The bottle is simple but elegant, charming in the Italian way. It comes as 180ml bath oil and Eau de Parfum. There is another version of this fragrance, the limited edition for 2007, named Colonia Edizione Murano. The bottle is made of Murano glass, beautiful and elegant, designed by Giorgio Vigna. Read more about this fragrance in the article on the prestige Italian house Acqua di Parma.

The r/fragrance community loves Acqua di Parma Colonia for its beautiful, timeless citrus scent and reasonable price, but consensus acknowledges its main weakness is poor longevity (4-5 hours). Despite this limitation, most agree it's worth purchasing because the fragrance quality justifies the trade-off, especially at discounted prices, and can be extended through reapplication or layering techniques.
