{"product_id":"acqua-di-parma-colonia-sample","title":"Acqua di Parma Colonia Sample","description":"\u003cp\u003eAcqua di Parma makes Colonia, a perfume you can get to know here in a small vial. A note pyramid is not on file here, so this page makes no claims about how it should come across. A decant of 2, 5 or 10 ml lets you wear it on several days before you decide about a full bottle. Your own nose gets used to a scent quickly, so ask someone near you what they notice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat we know and do not know\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe have the name and the house of Colonia, not its notes. Instead of copying a list from somewhere, we leave that part empty. What reads as sweet on one person can read as dry on another. Try it on a normal day, not only on a special one, to see whether it fits your routine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eLet us know\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, and we note it. Warm skin and cool skin can bring out different sides, so try both if you can. Notes on a list are a map, and what you notice on your own skin is the territory.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow the sample is made\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhat you get is Colonia in a glass spray vial, 2, 5 or 10 ml, decanted by FragranceGems from the original bottle and labelled by us. The vial closes tightly and fits in a pocket or bag, so you can test it wherever your day goes. Keep the vial away from heat and direct sunlight, as you would a full bottle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to test it\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eOur data does not say whether Acqua di Parma Colonia is meant for warm or cold days, so test it in both if you can. Ask someone you trust what they notice, because your own nose adapts quickly. Keep the rest of the vial for a second and third try in other weather.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho it is for\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo audience is on record for Acqua di Parma Colonia, and a perfume does not check who wears it anyway. It is for the careful chooser and for the curious one. If you already know the house, a decant lets you check whether this one fits next to what you own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy try Acqua di Parma Colonia 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 first. FragranceGems fills it from the original bottle and labels it; it is not an official brand sample, and Acqua di Parma has no part in it.\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 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, 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\u003eCan I try Colonia next to other samples?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, and it helps. Wear one perfume per day, or one per arm at most, so the scents do not blur. Short notes after each wearing make the choice easier.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Acqua di Parma","offers":[{"title":"2 ml","offer_id":67705720275098,"sku":"DG-ADP-COLONIA-002ML","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"5 ml","offer_id":67705720307866,"sku":"DG-ADP-COLONIA-005ML","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"10 ml","offer_id":67705720340634,"sku":"DG-ADP-COLONIA-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-sample.jpg?v=1791508404","url":"https:\/\/decantgems.eu\/products\/acqua-di-parma-colonia-sample","provider":"DecantGems","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
