Acqua di Parma Colonia Pura

Acqua di Parma Colonia Pura, released in 2017 and composed by François Demachy, is equally woody, floral and citrus, with spicy, green and fresh sides in support.

It is a clean, airy take on the classic Italian cologne. Bergamot and orange open with a bright, sparkling citrus freshness, petitgrain adds a green, slightly woody leaf note, and ozonic notes an airy, breezy lift. In the heart, coriander brings a light, aromatic spice, narcissus a green, slightly earthy and honeyed floral note, and jasmine sambac a warm, slightly fruity sweetness. The base is clean and dry: cedar gives a pencil-shaving woodiness, patchouli a light earthy depth and white musk a soft, clean finish.

Most wearers report moderate longevity, with a fair share finding it on the weak side, and its sillage is mostly described as moderate or close to the skin. It is voted mainly for summer and spring, and largely as a daytime scent. It is worn by anyone and suits the office, hot days and smart-casual wear, for people who like crisp, clean citrus with a soft floral heart.
