Colonia Il Profumo is a modern and more intense interpretation of the Maison's very first fragrance, the iconic Colonia, launched in 1916. The Eau de Parfum combines the golden radiance of the Italian sun with a refined blend of ylang-ylang and patchouli, which highlights and enhances the citrus notes throughout the fragrance. The top notes consist of bergamot, grapefruit, blood orange, and petitgrain, initially exuding a fresh, sparkling scent. The heart features the aromatic allure of rosemary, the richness, intensity, and opulence of ylang-ylang, and the unique note of orange leaves. Ylang-ylang was selected for its multidimensional notes, which sublimate the golden fruits throughout the fragrance and lend a timeless icon modernity and richness. The base notes are anchored by the refined depth of vetiver oil and patchouli, giving the fragrance structure and character.
The yellow hue of the fragrance evokes the warmth of the Italian sun and the sharpness of citrus fruits, while the bottle, with its gold-colored base, offers an intense and striking visual experience.

Perfumes reveal their fragrance notes differently depending on their concentration:
- Eau de Toilette (EDT): Lighter and fresher – ideal for everyday wear. Spray on pulse points such as the wrists and neck.
- Eau de Parfum (EDP): More intense and long-lasting – perfect for special occasions or evening wear. One or two sprays are enough.
- Parfum Extrait: The highest fragrance concentration – apply a few drops to warm areas of the skin, such as the neck or décolletage, for maximum effect.
Tip: Avoid rubbing the perfume in, as this can alter the fragrance structure. For a subtle touch, you can apply a little perfume to the ends of your hair or your clothing.
