I treated myself today to a 100ml of Aqua di Parma Colonia. (15% off at Holt Renfrew)
I sort of went in expecting to like CI (for some reason) but walked out with the classic original.
As I understand it, this one is famous for it's dynamic drydown. Halfway through day one, I can already appreciate this. It doesn't seem like anything "new" to me however - just a solid, everyday EdC. Today it seemed to evolve from Clinique Happy to Terre d'Hermes to Rive Gauche(!) to Dior Homme. My nose isn't trained to latch on to the florals very well (besides obvious rose notes). I'm not sure if the musky woods are coming yet. We'll see I suppose.
Classic scent. Almost 100 years old and still going strong.
