About This Perfume

Acqua di Parma Colonia Mirra smells like citrus peel, myrrh resin, earthy patchouli smoke. It opens with mandarin orange, petitgrain and lemon, moves into myrrh, nutmeg and orange blossom and settles on patchouli. It leans masculine, though anyone can wear it.

It is best in spring, fall and winter and is easy to wear day or night. Reach for it for casual days. Released in 2017.

Wearers report that it lasts roughly a working morning or afternoon, and projects to about arm's length.

Is it right for you?

  • Best for: anyone after something woody and grounded for casual days.
  • Sample first if: spicy is new territory for you.
  • Skip if: you dislike resinous fragrances.

Around $208.

Note by note

Count on sunlit lemon-lavender shower gel with crisp herbs from Acqua di Parma Colonia (Cologne, 1916). Buongiorno (Eau de Parfum, 2025) reads like cool citrus herb breeze over clean musk, opening on spearmint and basil and drying down to white musk, amber and cedar leaf. In Acqua di Parma Blu Mediterraneo - Fico di Amalfi (Eau de Toilette, 2006), expect sunlit grapefruit, lemon, and fig nectar cooling; grapefruit and Italian bergamot up top and fig wood, benzoin and cedarwood underneath.
