Acqua di Parma’s new Colonia C.L.U.B. is a light, contemporary and radiant fragrance intended to celebrate the vibrant sensations of the moments that matter. Balancing woody and aromatic accents, the eau de cologne opens with notes of bergamot and lemon, closely followed by hints of pink and black pepper, while the bright bond between aromatic shiso and rosemary defines the heart of the fragrance. Lastly, a comforting base of cedarwood and musk evokes the contentedness that comes from spending time and creating memories with friends and loved ones.
Furthermore, the fragrance is presented in the iconic Acqua di Parma clear glass bottle, a highly sought-after, art deco-inspired piece made partly from recycled glass with a recycled plastic top. The strong, sophisticated cylindrical shape references the powerful aromatic notes of the cologne.
This June, Acqua di Parma is supporting The Royal Marsden Cancer Charity by donating 10 per cent of all Colonia C.L.U.B. sales sold through John Lewis & Partners to the charity’s trust in support of Father & Son Day 2022. Father & Son Day was set up in 2014 by testicular cancer survivors Daniel Marks and Jack Dyson. By purchasing Colonia C.L.U.B. through John Lewis & Partners you will be contributing towards supporting lifesaving research and state-of-the-art treatment and care for cancer patients across the world. The Royal Marsden Cancer Charity aims not only to benefit those receiving treatment for cancer but also to elevate awareness of male cancer.
