Perfumes aren’t just a reflection of who you are, they also tell a story and evoke memories and emotions. Your perfect perfume match can lift your mood and instantly make you feel like the very best version of you – bringing out your confident, sensual or playful side with each spritz.

Step into the world of prestige perfumes and find out what makes them different from other perfume types. We’ll also take a closer look at the prestige perfume brand Acqua di Parma, and explore its range of premium scents.

What Are Prestige Perfumes?

Prestige perfumes focus more on fragrance, offering opulent scents that not only stimulate your senses but also take your olfactory experiences to the next level. Unlike their more basic counterparts, which often lean towards sweeter scents and may incorporate synthetic materials, prestige perfumes tend to come with a higher concentration of fragrance oils, which gives them a better scent trail and makes the fragrance last longer.

Depending on the type of perfume you’re using, it can have as much as 15-30% concentration (pure perfumes), 15-20% (eau de parfum), 5-15% (eau de toilette) or 2-4% (eau de cologne).

Prestige perfumes are also made with premium ingredients for their raw materials, which may entail painstaking procurement and processing to create a high-quality fragrance. These perfumes may use the finest fragrance or essential oils, whose properties are expertly harnessed to create superior scents that leave a lasting impression.

Prestige perfumes are so popular because they’re able to encapsulate the essence of their wearer’s personality while letting them dip their toes into the world of luxury. Premium luxury perfume brands like Acqua di Parma offer a selection of iconic fragrances that will give you a unique sensory experience every time.

Exploring the World of Prestige Perfumes With Acqua di Parma

Acqua di Parma has been creating perfumes since 1916. Each Acqua di Parma fragrance is made in Italy and, throughout the years, this luxury brand has managed to showcase its Italian heritage and deep artisanal tradition while still moving with the times to maintain a modern edge.

From signature fragrances to everyday essentials like deodorants, shower gels and diffusers, Acqua di Parma offers a world of premium fragrances for you to enjoy.

How do you begin to find the right Acqua di Parma perfume for you? Why not start off with a gift set, such as the Acqua di Parma Colonia Gift Set. The perfume trio includes Acqua di Parma Colonia Eau de Cologne, a classic fragrance with fresh citrus and woody notes, Intensa Eau de Cologne, a unique fragrance that combines fresh, woody and warm notes, and Pura Eau de Cologne, which features a crisp, elegant and masculine scent.

Want to bring home a slice of the Mediterranean with you? Take home a bottle or two from the Blu Mediterraneo collection. Acqua Di Parma Blu Mediterraneo - Fico Di Amalfi is a fragrant distillation of the Amalfi Coast that has a fruity, floral profile. Here, you can find citrusy top notes complemented by spicy, floral notes. Woody base notes are derived from fig wood, cedarwood and benzoin. Other fragrances from the collection include Mirto di Panarea, which showcases a fresh scent comprised of floral, citrus, amber, and herby notes, Mandorlo di Sicilia, which has a floral, amber fragrance, and Bergamotto di Calabria, a woody, aromatic scent.

If you want something more regal, take a spritz of Acqua di Parma Peonia Nobile, which calls to mind lush peony gardens with its refreshing floral and dark amber notes. Other fragrances from the collection that will stimulate your senses include Magnolia Nobile, which combines citrus and floral notes of magnolia, Bulgarian rose, jasmine, bergamot, and citron, and Rosa Nobile, which evokes the intricate scent of a rose garden with its floral, citrus, woody and spicy notes.

In the mood for something darker and more powerful? Check out Acqua di Parma Oud, a fragrance for both men and women which combines the warm, rich fragrance of Oud and Haitian amyris with spicy Russian coriander. It opens with citrusy top notes of bergamot and oranges and finishes off with the deep fragrance of leather, patchouli, cedar, sandalwood, and musk.

If you want a gift for the man in your life, an Acqua di Parma aftershave is the perfect choice. The Collezione Barbiere Refreshing Aftershave Emulsion is a fragrant way for him to end a shave while restoring the skin. It’s formulated with vegetal oils and hyaluronic acid, to keep skin moisturized and refreshed. It’s also a lightweight emulsion that absorbs quickly into the skin, leaving him smelling irresistible.
