The older this gets the better it is

For star treatment, get some Acqua di Parma.

Although Acqua di Parma is getting on for 100, it's far from being a boring old granddad fragrance. Far from it. The yellow-packaged Italian cologne just gets cooler with age. It helps that it has such illustrious fans as Isabella Rossellini, Kate Moss, Harrison Ford and, before them, Ava Gardner, Audrey Hepburn and Cary Grant.

The fact that we haven't been able to get it here has made us all the keener for it. Good news - Fabric is now stocking the men's Acqua di Parma Colonge ($135 for 50ml), the new Aqua di Parma Colonia Assoluta ($149 for 50ml) and the women's fragrance Iris Nobile ($175 for 50ml).
