The fragrance these clones are inspired by.
Mirto di Panarea La Riserva is a 2025 unisex release from Acqua di Parma built around a bright, aromatic-herbal core. The opening pairs citron and juniper berries with sage for a fresh, slightly spicy citrus lift that transitions into a heart of lavender, myrtle and resinous myrrh. The base of patchouli, labdanum and mastic gives a warm, balsamic finish that can read smoky or church-like to some wearers. Classified among aromatic, fresh-spicy and herbal scents, it holds a solid 4.01/5 from 122 votes and is widely noted for its herbal intensity and distinct resinous dry down.
Our take
I like the brisk opening, citron and juniper feel almost gin-like, then it folds into a dense herb mix of sage, lavender and myrtle; the myrrh/labdanum base is resinous and nostalgic, which I enjoy on warm evenings, though others may find the dry down heavy and the citrus quieter than expected.

The Bottle
Mirto di Panarea La Riserva has a bottle that makes a strong visual impression without becoming ornate. Its tall, squat rectangular shape, rounded corners and saturated cobalt-blue appearance are set off by a crisp white label carrying the Acqua di Parma name, crest and fragrance title. The large dark-blue cylindrical cap completes a handsome, unusually confident object.
Original or Clone
The bottle is a meaningful reason to buy the original: its saturated blue form and white Acqua di Parma label give this aromatic, fresh-spicy citrus fragrance a distinctive physical presence. The reference has some standing beyond its packaging; one house has attempted to reproduce it, which is modest evidence that this character has attracted attention. With no perfumer credited here, the case is selective rather than overwhelming, but this bottle gives the original a tangible reason to buy.
