Acqua Attiva Ice Collistar arrived in 2012 — and it was immediately clear this one was here to stay. A masculine fragrance from the spicy and fern families. The fragrance was crafted by perfumer Alberto Morillas. Available as eau de toilette.
Behind this fragrance stands Italy and its rich perfumery heritage. Acqua Attiva Ice Collistar — the choice of those who appreciate depth and character in every detail.
The fragrance is very long-lasting, staying on the skin for 12 hours or more, gradually revealing its notes
The scent will linger in the air even after its wearer has left.
The perfume has a rich aroma that will help you stand out from the crowd and create a memorable image
A light and elegant fragrance with harmonious richness—the perfect balance between the depth of eau de parfum and the freshness of cologne
Perfumes for the fall and winter seasons often contain notes of vanilla, spices, ambergris, wood, and other warm accords, creating a feeling of comfort and warmth during the cold months
The olfactory structure of Acqua Attiva Ice is shaped as a living composition, where accents shift smoothly and sequentially. The signature of Collistar is recognizable from the opening to the final trail. Nothing here feels random, and the composition keeps a clear direction. Eau de toilette emphasizes a balanced rhythm of unfolding.
The accord profile is built around these accords: Citrus, Floral, Wood and Amber without random overlap. Additional accords such as Spicy expand the olfactory volume in the background. The profile is masculine, which sharpens how the fragrance is perceived.
At the opening of the pyramid you catch sparkling citrus top note: Grapefruit.
In the central layer you detect Cardamom and Ginger Flower keeping a cinnamon-nutmeg direction. In the base the line is anchored through Ambergris and Cedar, shaping a dense amber trail.
At the note-group layer the structure relies on Citrus, Spicy, Floral and Ambery. The palette also extends to Wood. From a family perspective the scent maps to Fern and Spicy.
Taken together Acqua Attiva Ice reads as a cohesive composition — the opening sets direction, the heart develops the core line, and the base secures the trail. This is the type of composition best understood through real development.
