    What do reviewers say about Acqua di Parma Colonia and Flor de Laranjeira?

    Some fragrances fill a room. Colonia doesn't need to. That's the whole point. Over a century old, this is the Italian argument for restraint, clean enough to wear anywhere.Acqua di Parma Colonia
    The citrus opening is aggressive in the best way, it hits and means it. Then the orange blossom takes over and the whole thing softens into something powdery and warm.Flor de Laranjeira
