What do reviewers say about Nº 3 Cologne Curieuse and Acqua di Parma Colonia?
A cologne with actual depth. Most fresh fragrances hit bright and bail, this one settles into something worth following. The black elder base is unusual.Nº 3 Cologne Curieuse
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
