About

Top notes are Lemon, Bergamot, Grapefruit and Pink Pepper; middle notes are Lavender and Sage; base note is Vetiver. "Colonia Futura is Acqua di Parma’s declaration of love for nature, blending Italian citrus, clary sage, and vetiver. This fragrance is derived from 99% natural ingredients. Colonia Futura opens with a luminous spark of bergamot and lemon with touches of pink pepper. A dynamic opening that softens in the heart, herbaceous, fresh lavender duets with aromatic clary sage. It is a harmony that concludes with vetiver bringing its woody touch through earthy accents." - a note from the brand.
