Colonia Il Profumo by Acqua di Parma
A Bold New Chapter in Fragrance: Colonia Il Profumo by Acqua di Parma
Acqua di Parma has just unveiled a stunning evolution of its iconic fragrance, Colonia, with the launch of Colonia Il Profumo—a modern, intensified take on the classic scent that first graced the world in 1916. This new fragrance is more than just a scent; it’s a celebration of over a century of tradition, beautifully updated with contemporary elegance.
A Fragrance that Captures Italy’s Sun-Kissed Spirit
The essence of Colonia Il Profumo is all about capturing the vibrant, sun-drenched atmosphere of Italy. From the very first spritz, you’re greeted with a lively burst of citrus—Italian bergamot, grapefruit, blood orange, and petitgrain. But there’s something new here: the addition of ylang-ylang, which adds depth and intensity, giving the fragrance a richer, more enduring quality.
The heart of the scent unfolds as rosemary and orange leaves intertwine with that vibrant ylang-ylang, crafting a layered, aromatic experience. It’s a carefully curated blend, with each element meticulously selected to elevate the fragrance’s character. As the scent settles, the base reveals earthy vetiver oil and patchouli, the latter chosen with precision to enhance the overall richness and warmth of the fragrance.
A Bottle That Speaks to the Scent’s Sophistication
The fragrance isn’t just about what’s inside—it’s about the experience from start to finish. Colonia Il Profumo is housed in an elegant Art Deco-inspired bottle, its gold-gilded glass base and warm golden hue reflecting the fragrance’s intensity and sophistication. The redesigned label adds an extra touch of class, perfectly complementing the bold scent inside.
A Lifestyle Collection That Complements the Fragrance
Acqua di Parma has expanded the Colonia experience with a stunning collection of lifestyle objects designed to enhance your everyday rituals. The Colonia Portami Trunk, crafted from luxurious leather and lined with yellow lambskin, is an elegant way to store your fragrance collection. It holds three 180ml bottles and is accented with contrasting stitching, button pod details, and retractable handle loops. There’s also the Colonia Posami Perfume Tray, made from cherry wood with yellow accents, designed to showcase your favorite fragrances with style.
For those who love to indulge in candle rituals, the Colonia Abbracciami Candle Glass Holder is the perfect addition. Designed for 200g candles, its intricate tan leather weaving and warm burgundy, orange, and beige tones make it a truly special piece. And don’t forget the Colonia Coprimi Candle Lid, made from leather with yellow stitching, adding a refined touch to your candle collection.
The collection also includes the Colonia Custodiscimi Accessories Candle Case, crafted from cherry wood with yellow edging—ideal for storing your candles in style. All leather objects are meticulously crafted in Italy, ensuring the highest quality.
Elegance for Every Part of Your Day
Acqua di Parma has thought of everything, even down to your hand care. Their Colonia Glass Hand Soap and Lotion come in beautifully designed 350ml refillable glass bottles, embossed with the Maison’s emblem. These items not only elevate your bathroom but bring the fragrance into your everyday life.
A Visual Representation of Renewal
To celebrate the launch of Colonia Il Profumo, Acqua di Parma has teamed up with Italian designer Cristina Celestino and the historic terracotta company Fornace Brioni to create a bespoke yellow glazed element. This piece symbolizes the evolution of Colonia Il Profumo, blending the timeless elegance of the original fragrance with a fresh, vibrant sophistication.
