Contrary to popular opinion, I do have a sense of smell- just not a very good one. I was considering getting some Acqua di Parma while in Parma. While I liked what I could smell of it (citrusy?), I didn't buy it for reasons I won't go into. What I *did* buy was Colonia Russa aftershave ("Lozione Dopo-Barba") from Farmaceutica di Santa Maria Novella in Florence. Colonia Russa is described as having an aroma of bitter orange, bergamot, and musk. They told me they don't sell on-line, but it looks like they might be gearing up to do so. They have a website under construction, http://www.smnovella.it/ . I understand their products are also offered via various retailers and their websites in the states. Their flagship store is also a museum. It's a nice visit. http://www.museumsinflorence.com/musei/Pharmacy-Santa-Maria-Novella.html I’ll have to take a whiff of that sometime with my wife.
