House confirmed. Sicilian citrus, lavender — Atticus Finch in cologne form.
Smelebrity score: 9/10
The fragrance of quiet dignity. Cinema's moral conscience in a bottle.
Confirmed by Acqua di Parma brand history: 'During the 1950s, the Italian perfume house could count on silver screen legends Cary Grant and Gregory Peck as devotees.' Directly confirmed by the house. Sicilian citrus, lavender, rosemary and verbena over cedar, amber and light musk.
Colonia has been made to the same formula for over a century. Sicilian citrus and lavender open — bright, clean, Italian morning. The rosemary and verbena heart adds herbal elegance. A fragrance that has no interest in trends — it predates them all.
Cary Grant and Gregory Peck wore the same fragrance. The dual-golden-age content angle is extraordinary.
