Acqua di Colonia

UnisexRated 4.3/5 · 252 reviews

bergamot · neroli · amalfi lemon

From the first moment, bergamot, neroli and Amalfi lemon open with a bright citrus freshness. At the heart, lavender, petitgrain and rosemary bring an aromatic edge, lifted by a touch of clove. Benzoin settles beneath as a soft, quiet base that carries the trail. Wear it on summer mornings, while the air is still cool.
