Acqua di Parma Colonia Eau de Cologne 50ml Spray
Product Details
Acqua di Parma Colonia Eau de Cologne 50ml is the original 1916 Italian cologne — the fragrance that defined modern Italian chic and gave the house its name. A unisex citrus-aromatic composition built on radiant lemon, Calabrian bergamot and sweet orange, with an aromatic heart of lavender, rose and rosemary, and warm woody underpinnings of vetiver, sandalwood and patchouli. The 50ml flacon is the practical everyday size of the Art Deco signature glass bottle that has barely changed in over a century.
About Acqua di Parma
Created in 1916 in a small laboratory in Parma's historic centre, Colonia was conceived as a lighter, fresher alternative to the heavy Germanic colognes that dominated European perfumery at the time. By the 1930s and 1950s it had become a symbol of Italian style, worn by Cary Grant, David Niven, Ava Gardner and Audrey Hepburn. The house joined the LVMH group in 2001 and remains entirely Italian-made.

Who it's for
Colonia is genuinely unisex — equally at home on men and women who prefer understated, polished freshness over loud modern compositions. It is a year-round wear that comes alive in spring and summer, ideal for daytime, office, and warm-weather travel. If you appreciate Eau Sauvage, 4711, or other classical citrus-aromatic colognes, Colonia is the Italian benchmark. The 50ml size is the bag-friendly bottle for those exploring the line for the first time.
How to use
- Hold the Art Deco glass bottle around 15 cm from the skin.
- Spray onto pulse points — wrists, neck, chest.
- Three to four sprays balance presence for the eau de cologne concentration.
- Reapply through the day; eau de cologne is a deliberately light strength meant to be revisited.
