Acqua di Parma Colonia Mirra is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2017, created by Joëlle Lerioux Patris. Colonia Mirra opens with Citrus and Orange Blossom, settles into a heart of Nutmeg and Myrrh, and dries down to a base of Amber and Patchouli. Acqua di Parma's Colonia Mirra carries a Statement verdict, a amber-led wear.

This is a seriously polarising scent - some find it an overlooked masterpiece, a warm and inviting embrace, but others recoil from a cloying, synthetic mess. It's a proper grown-up fragrance, undeniably sophisticated and for those who know their mind.

About

Colonia Mirra opens with a fleeting citrus zest, quickly giving way to the star of the show: a rich, almost balsamic myrrh. This resinous heart is softened by a touch of warm nutmeg, leading into a deep, comforting base of amber and earthy patchouli. It's a warm, enveloping scent that feels both ancient and modern.
