Note Di Colonia V by Acqua di Parma was launched in 2020 as a Woody Aromatic fragrance for both women and men. This composition opens with the bright, zesty notes of Calabrian bergamot and lemon, which are immediately balanced by the warmth of pink pepper and ginger. The heart introduces a subtle fresh spicy edge from juniper before settling into a woody base of cedar and sandalwood that reads as powdery and understated.
While rooted in Acqua di Parma’s traditional Italian elegance, Note Di Colonia V offers a modern twist with its vibrant citrus top notes and aromatic heart. This blend makes it feel fresh yet sophisticated, fitting for the brand's legacy of lasting chic.
