{"product_id":"acqua-di-parma-colonia-essenza-sample","title":"Acqua di Parma Colonia Essenza Sample","description":"\u003cp\u003eAcqua di Parma makes Colonia Essenza, a perfume you can get to know here in a small vial. Its notes are not in our files, and we would rather say so than fill the gap. A sample is the sensible first step: a perfume on paper and a perfume on skin are rarely the same thing. Give it time to settle before you judge it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat we know and do not know\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eOur record for Colonia Essenza stops at brand and name. Notes, families and seasons are left out here because we cannot verify them. The opening is the loudest part and the shortest, so let it pass before deciding. Notice how close it stays to the skin and how much of it others pick up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eNot on the shelf yet\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis sample is listed on request, which means it is not filled yet. Use the form on this page to let us know you would like Colonia Essenza, and we note it. Pay attention to what is still there by the evening, since that is the part you live with longest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAbout the decant\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhat you get is Colonia Essenza in a glass spray vial, 2, 5 or 10 ml, decanted by FragranceGems from the original bottle and labelled by us. A spray vial lets you apply it the way you would from the bottle, which a dab-on tube does not.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to test it\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen to wear Colonia Essenza is not on record with us; test it on the kind of day you would actually wear it. Keep the rest of the vial for a second and third try in other weather. Wear it on at least three different days before you decide.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho it is for\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eColonia Essenza comes without an audience tag in our data. Anyone who reacts strongly to certain notes is wise to test on skin first. Whoever wears it decides whether it fits, not the label. Collectors use decants to explore widely without filling a shelf.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy try Acqua di Parma Colonia Essenza as a sample first\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe same perfume can be a favourite on one person and a miss on the next, which is the whole case for testing Colonia Essenza first. It is our own decant from the original bottle, labelled by us. This is not an official brand sample and the house is not involved.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eIs this the same perfume as the full bottle?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. The liquid is taken from the original bottle of Acqua di Parma Colonia Essenza and filled into a glass spray vial by FragranceGems. The vial carries our own label, so it is a decant and not a sample made by the brand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWhy does this page list no notes?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo note list is on record with us for Acqua di Parma Colonia Essenza, and we only print notes we can trace to a source. The sample lets you judge the perfume without a list.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWhich size should I choose?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThat depends on how long you want to test. The smallest vial is enough for a first impression of Colonia Essenza; the larger ones give you many wearings, in different weather and on different days.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Acqua di Parma","offers":[{"title":"2 ml","offer_id":67705717915802,"sku":"DG-ADP-COLONIA-ESSENZA-002ML","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"5 ml","offer_id":67705717948570,"sku":"DG-ADP-COLONIA-ESSENZA-005ML","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"10 ml","offer_id":67705717981338,"sku":"DG-ADP-COLONIA-ESSENZA-010ML","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0782\/5938\/8570\/files\/acqua-di-parma-colonia-essenza-sample.jpg?v=1791508402","url":"https:\/\/decantgems.eu\/products\/acqua-di-parma-colonia-essenza-sample","provider":"DecantGems","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
