Colonia Pura in detail

Colonia Pura belongs to the Colonia collection of Acqua di Parma, born of the 1916 eau de Cologne. It is its lightest and airiest version, which the house links to a walk in the countryside around Parma. The house files it among aqueous compositions; Volute therefore files it among aquatic fragrances.

The official pyramid opens with Italian bergamot, orange and petitgrain. The heart gathers lightly spicy coriander, jasmine sambac and narcissus. The base pairs cedarwood, patchouli and musk, which add a little depth.

Colonia Pura suits spring and summer, by day; it is a clear, easy-to-wear eau de Cologne, lighter than the original. Narcissus and jasmine sambac give it a discreet floral heart, lifted by coriander, while cedarwood keeps it clean.

Three aquatic fragrances in our catalogue come close: Neptune's Trident Extrait by Argos shares bergamot, jasmine sambac and musk; French Riviera by Mancera finds orange and musk again; Menorca by Memo Paris pairs bergamot and musk.
