Looking for a new fragrance? Acqua di Parma's Colonia Essenza Eau de Cologne won't disappoint. Think of it as a timeless classic, not just for your scent wardrobe but your vanity, too. The heady, woody aroma of Colonia makes it instantly recognisable to those in the know. Its olfactory journey begins with a bouquet of golden fruits (think: lemon, orange, bergamot) before opening to a crisp blend of grapefruit, mandarin and petitgrain. It has an aromatic-floral heart brimming with rose, jasmine and a hint of clove, and then dives deep into a precious blend of woody vetiver, soft musk and warm amber. An earthy patchouli base provides the finishing touch, which beautifully complements the iconic black, Art Deco-inspired bottle (which you'll definitely want to keep, even after your final spritz).
