James Bond aka Acqua di Parma Colonia
Why 007 ... some will now ask themselves ... and why the hell Acqa di Parma Colonia ?
To explain this I have a little catch up.
When I got a bottling of Acqua di Parma Colonia, I fell in love with this fragrance right away.
I do not know if they knew ...
Nah different, I do not know if anyone knows it, but I associate fragrances mostly with all sorts of things but in the rarest cases with the stated fragrance notes of the pyramid.
With the Colonia James Bond came directly to my mind.
Not Daniel Craig, no... Sean Connery or maybe Roger Moore.
Those old gentleman agents.
And here at last I come to Esperidi Water.
Whose opening with the natural smelling lemon and the fresh orange is just delightfully refreshing.
Then quickly comes this creaminess, which I appreciate so much.
But here comes again and again the lemon / orange blown through, longer than the Colonia as I think.
In the Drydown it is then for me 1:1 the above-mentioned classic from the house Acqua di Parma.
Whether it is coincidence, or whether someone has been inspired here too much...one does not know.
However, the similarity is already enormous. Who does not mind and who likes the Colonia, which can definitely hold here times his nose purely.
In the presentation of the Esperidi Water is superior to the Colonia imho.
The great box with small background story, a map of the old trade routes and a very nice bottle...fits.
I spray me then times properly and think...today I look times "Love greetings from Moscow"
And don't forget... shaken and not stirred ;-)
