To mark the 110th anniversary of Acqua di Parma’s Italian Art of Living, Colonia Il Profumo is reimagined in a celebratory Millesimato limited edition that magnifies its citrus notes and enduring Italian elegance. At its heart lies the exceptional 2024 harvest of Ylang-Ylang from Nosy Be—cultivated in the Madagascan island’s tropical climate, where the flowers develop their full complexity, marked by fruity and subtly spiced undertones. Nurtured by the year’s rare convergence of abundant rainfall and gentle warmth, the flower reveals a rare luminous complexity and intensity.
Expertly distilled over 24 hours and delicately fractionated, the 2024 harvest of Ylang-Ylang from Nosy Be amplifies the vibrancy of the citruses and gives density and depth to the perfume. Italian bergamot, blood orange, petitgrain and grapefruit open the composition with a golden freshness, while rosemary, orange leaves absolute, patchouli, and vetiver give structure and sophistication to this citrus aromatic creation.
Presented in a glass bottle with an embossed architectural detail inspired by classical Italian design and a back label that highlights the fragrance’s craftsmanship and olfactory composition, the fragrance is housed in Acqua di Parma’s iconic yellow hatbox, distinguished by a golden medal stamp celebrating the 2024 harvest and the 110th anniversary of Acqua di Parma. A collector’s icon that bridges heritage and modern refinement with sophisticated olfactive clarity.
