Acqua di Parma Blu Mediterraneo La Riserva Collection Mirto di Panarea Review delivers a sun-soaked, breezy escape to the Mediterranean for both women and men. As part of the exclusive La Riserva Collection, this unisex Eau de Parfum reimagines the beloved Mirto di Panarea signature with intensified brilliance, longevity, and complexity — perfectly suited for those drawn to luminous freshness and woody sophistication.
The Opening: A Mediterranean Awakening
Mirto di Panarea La Riserva opens with an exhilarating burst: lush Italian myrtle, bright citron, and juniper berries join aromatic sage and fresh basil. The air is instantly filled with sparkling zest, reminiscent of morning on the cliffs of Panarea — vibrant, herbal, and pure.
Development: From Luminous Green to Warm Resin
As the top notes linger, the heart presents a sunlit blend of jasmine and rose, their petals intertwined with a gentle sea breeze effect. Subtle marine undertones anchor the freshness, lending an aquatic transparency that feels endlessly uplifting. Here, the transition is seamless — the citrus-herbal radiance evolving into something warmer, deeper, and wholly Mediterranean.
Base Notes Breakdown
| Base Note | Characteristic |
|---|---|
| Amber | Radiant, sun-warmed |
| Mastic resin | Green, slightly sweet, Mediterranean |
| Juniper | Dry, woody, aromatic |

Performance: Intensified Brightness, Lasting Impression
Mirto di Panarea La Riserva stands out for both its amplified projection and longevity. Expect a strong, radiant sillage for the first few hours — the kind that lingers like golden sunlight. As the fragrance dries down, it develops a warm, inviting muskiness and resinous backbone that lasts through a summer evening, leaving a gentle but lasting aura.
