The story behind the bottle.
Acqua di Parma Colonia Assoluta Edizione Speciale 2011 is an aromatic and fresh spicy fragrance that captures the essence of Italian elegance. The composition opens with a bright citrus note, followed by the subtle floral notes of lavender and rose, creating a harmonious blend that transitions seamlessly into a warm amber and musky base. This limited edition cologne stays true to Acqua di Parma's heritage, offering a scent that is both classic and contemporary.
Given its strong sillage but poor longevity, apply this fragrance in layers for a lasting effect. Two sprays to start, followed by additional light applications throughout the day as needed. It reads best close to skin rather than across a room.
