Italian niche line Acqua di Parma will launch Colonia Sandalo, the fourth fragrance in the brand's Ingredient Collection.* See also Colonia Oud (originally known as Colonia Intensa Oud), Colonia Leather and Colonia Ambra. All are flankers to the brand's Colonia.
The notes feature bergamot, lemon, orange, petitgrain, cardamom, lavender, sandalwood, tonka bean and amber.
Acqua di Parma Colonia Sandalo debuts this month at Harrods in 100 ml Eau de Cologne Concentrée.

* Update ~ according to Acqua di Parma, Colonia Sandalo was developed specifically for Harrods, and should not be considered part of the Ingredient Collection.
based on the list of notes this one sounds really nice!
Ditto this. Except 100ml is just too big. *sigh*
And not sure, but it might turn out to be a Harrods exclusive. We’ll see.
I like this Ingredient collection. The Colonia Oud is really nice and wears very well.
Bergamot and cardamom and then lavender and then more lavender.. Somewhere in the base Tonka and possibly sandalwood just because it says so.
Practically there is not much difference between this and Mr. Burberry EDT released at the same time.
Unfortunate.. And yes it is exclusive to Harrods. There is an ‘H’ in the lid unlike ambra and oud bottle lids.
~sigh~ was hoping for a good dose of sandalwood..
Ah, too bad! But thanks for the update.
yeah it is shame really. I do have proper india mysore sandalwood oil and there is not an ounce of it in there.
I think the best and original of the ADP range is Ambra which I am thinking of buying for a good price on ebay. The leather is good but it is more or less a copy of Tuscan leather -Tom Ford.
