Charming store selling traditional Italian fragrances

Noteworthy for: The fresh, pine-infused smell of Blu Mediterraneo and the luxurious packaging of Magnolia Nobile.

Founded in 1916, the soft scents of Acqua di Parma are the quintessential Italian fragrance; the original colognes are still sold in trademark black and white packing in hand-made Murano bottles. Given a new lease of life when the company was taken over by French luxury giants LVMH, there is now a range of beautifully presented balms, after-shaves, and perfumes, all inspired by nature and made with traditional ingredients.

Acqua di Parma products have extended to include clumpy candles, a collection of shaving utensils, and smart black leather washbags, all on sale in the tranquil gold and green Quad d’Oro store.
