Zesty

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my first time trying Aqua Di Parma Colonia IL Porfumo. This Fragrance is absolutely divine. I love the packaging it is yellow bright, just like the scent. This is a citrus scent and the top notes are italian, bergamont, grapefruit, blood orange and petitgrain. The base is vetiver and patchouli. This is made in Italy. The bottle is gorgeous sophisticated. This could be unisex fragrance but to me it's more on the masculine side. In the beginning, it is very fresh and zesty and then the dry down it definitely tones down, and you smell more of that patchouli. It's definitely strong intense and robust a little goes a long way. This is going make an amazing gift.

Expensive and Mysterious

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Okay, I need to rave about this perfume. I was looking for a special scent, and a friend recommended Acqua di Parma Colonia Il Profumo. Wow. It’s not your typical citrus cologne that disappears in an hour. The initial burst of orange and bergamot is so juicy and natural. But the magic happens as it settles on your skin and it becomes warm, a little spicy, and incredibly smooth. It makes me feel put together and confident. My friends said I smell "expensive and mysterious," which is a win in my book! The staying power is insane. If you're tired of sweet perfumes and want something refined, you need to try this.
