Very helpful Review 22  
Comment No. 1000 - intoxicatingly beautiful bergamot - Italian
Yes, well, my 1000th Parfumo comment should of course not be a criticism, a reckoning, or a dissection. I do that often enough here :) and unfortunately, from my perspective, there is often plenty of reason for it.

But the main reason for the exchange here, where I have now been at home for over 7 years, is of course to enrich oneself, to be inspired, and to focus on the beautiful aspects of sniffing.

Acqua di Parma gives me ample reason to praise with their No. 5. This is truly a perfectly composed, very high-quality, casually Mediterranean arranged summer fragrance. A wealth of citrus aromas, a lot of bergamot, lemon, naturally occurring.

Not sharp or sour, but rather creamy, dolce-vita-like. Gently spicy, juniper and pepper play a subtle rounding background. One thinks with anticipation of the wonderful dolce-far-niente vacations in this magnificent country, which will eventually return when the whole virus misery is swept aside.

Yes, really, big praise for No. 1000! Lemon fans, go for it! :)

"...Like a Feather in the Wind..."
Note di Colonia V is Acqua di Parma's homage to the joy of life and the carefree nature of love, as depicted in "La Donna è Mobile" from Giuseppe Verdi's "Rigoletto".

"The woman is fickle. Like a feather in the wind, she changes tone and opinion! And opinion! And opinion!" With the refrain of "La Donna è Mobile," the "V" has one thing in common; it is airy and light like a feather in the wind. The freshest and brightest of the new collection. A carefree, cheerful, and harmonious interplay of the ingredients.

Nice citrus floral smell, similar to scents as Bergamote 22. For me way to expensive for this kind of DNA

You can smell clearly all the notes listed plus there is something sweet-fruity here, like mandarin juice. Nothing unique, but nice. Unisex.

Smells like a fancy, worse performing Versace Man Eau Fraîche Eau de Toilette

Beautiful citrus opening that unfortunately quickly leads to a rather bland finale with a cedar-pencil note. That's too nice for me.

The scent feels very natural. Ginger and juniper come to the forefront after a citrus start and finish with woods. Subtle and fresh!

Quality and understatement that feels timeless. A wonderful citrusy green summer scent. This is how fragrance should be, but unfortunately at a horrendous price!

High-quality blend, unfortunately more masculine than unisex and a bit too sweet, yet a great citrus-spice-wood combo, well done.

Soft citrus-green scent that feels relatively simple and lacks the spice I prefer. Also, unfortunately, it's way too sweet. Not my type.
