Aqua Media Cologne Forte

Aqua Media Cologne Forte is a citrus eau de parfum by Maison Francis Kurkdjian, launched in 2023 in the Cologne forte collection. Francis Kurkdjian gives it green, the middle color of the rainbow. Bergamot opens onto hedione and sweet fennel, set on a base of woody musk lifted by a touch of patchouli.

Francis Kurkdjian built Aqua Media Cologne Forte on a tangy freshness: bergamot at the top, hedione and sweet fennel at the center of the composition, a base of woody musk enhanced by a touch of patchouli.

Bergamot and fennel

Bergamot, the signature of the Cologne forte line, opens slowly. Hedione brings an airy, luminous floral effect, and sweet fennel gives the whole its breadth. The house also mentions a verbena accord, and the press notes an aniseed facet.

The woody musks

The base pairs woody musks with a touch of patchouli, which according to the house strengthens the fresh effect. It describes a joyful eau de parfum, of a sparkling, almost appetizing freshness, focused on balance and harmony.
