Acqua di Parma Marks 110 Years With Fassbender and Impacciatore, Unveils Limited Colonia

The LVMH maison treats the celebrity turn as a one-off device to spotlight provenance, craftsmanship, slow living.

Overview

  • The anniversary campaign, titled The Art of Living Italian, has launched with imagery shot in Parma by Brett Lloyd and short films directed by Talia Collis.
  • A limited-edition Colonia Il Profumo Millesimato debuts as the centerpiece, created by perfumer Alexis Dadier from the 2024 Nosy Be ylang-ylang harvest.
  • The 100-ml bottle is priced at €265 and is rolling out at Acqua di Parma stores and selectively worldwide starting Tuesday.
  • CEO Giulio Bergamaschi says featuring Michael Fassbender and Sabrina Impacciatore is an exception to the brand’s usual no-celebrity approach and serves a cultural narrative rather than a product push.
  • The brand is expanding its Art of Living objects and experiential Caffettino pop-ups, opening a Florence store in March 2026, and staging a Parma exhibition in September 2026 that will tour globally in 2027.
