This stuff smells deep and rich almost like a cookie dough vibe, but manly. It will turn heads for a mature audience. I think people are sleeping on this one, modern and vintage. a casual and dress up fragrance that gets the job done.

Acqua di Parma is such a classy brand.
From the moment you open the box you can feel the quality and the luxury. Colonia mirra delivers exactly what its name says. From the very start you are greeted with an ambery, sweet but steady myrrh note. This is for the elegant, dark haired gentleman over 30. Longevity is good but not excellent. If you genuinely like myrrh, give it a try. However, my myrrh obsession is already fulfilled by the 2012 version of Eau sauvage Parfum which has a bit more brightness IMO and better performance.

Spiritual, meditative, sensual, deep, elegant, masculine.
Perfectly matches its name as it’s VERY resinous, which I find lovely.
However, the more it drys down the sweeter it gets and becomes a bit cloying. It’s also not very easy to wear so although I fell in love with the scent at the beginning I won’t be buying a bottle, I can’t spend so much on something that’s not 100% satisfactory.

Acqua di Parma, my new favorite brand and a true master of blends.
All their perfumes are made of high quality ingredients and this one is no exception.
This perfume says: I enjoy being a man!
This creature is extraordinary, utterly admirable. Everything about this perfume is as it should be. Everything is in its place. Everything is balanced.
The notes come in, play their role in the light of a resinous myrrh and amber accord and slowly fade away with a goodbye kiss on your senses.
The opening is a little bit powerful, but just enough to grab your attention. Then the myrrh comes in and the beautiful, sweet, and boozy amber starts to play in the background. This is the main theme of the perfume and it will be like this until you can’t smell the perfume anymore.
I’ve applied it 12 hours ago and I can still smell it on my arm. I actually sniffed my arm more than 100 times today.
Myrrh and amber are two of my beloved notes in perfumes and they always will be. So I have to say, this is one of the top 5 perfumes I’ve ever smelled in my life, maybe even the best.
Overall, a sweet lovely perfume, made of high quality ingredients, suitable for colder months with a not-so-casual vibe.
Thank you for making this gem!
Scent: A beautiful combination of myrrh and amber. 12/10
Uniqueness: 10/10
Longevity: 10/10

Mirra is the third one I have tried from the ADP Ingredient line after Oud and Leather and like those two, I love this one as well. This is a beautiful, powdery spice n Myrhh fragrance.
Top notes are a fleeting dash of citrus and the sharp spicy note of the nutmeg. This spicy nutmeg is joined by a very beautiful myrhh note. This heart phase is just lovely and then turns powdery when the patchouli comes into focus. The dry down is a blend of the myrhh, and powdery patchouli with hints of amber notes. All in all, very clean smelling for want of a better word. longevity is pretty decent, around the 6-7 hour range on me although projection dies down after the first hour into what I would call the “hugging” range. I get whiffs of it all through it’s scent life so it does last.
In conclusion, I would say if you are a fan of the Myrhh note or of powdery frags in general, this is a good entry with the usual fantastic ADP quality in ingredients and blend. I would say this is Masculine mostly although a woman could easily pull this off too if she does not mind the spice. Definitely a large decant or Full bottle worthy for me. 8.5/10

Wow this is amazing. If I was forced to compare it to something similar, I’d say TM Ultra Zest, but this ADP mirra is a much more refined + creative take on that basic idea. (for the sake of giving ppl an idea who haven’t smelled it yet).
This has a feel to it that feels like it is blooming when u wear it, with this extremely beautiful + lush + full, but at the same time fragile/nuanced + transparent,

Just a big myrrh coat. This just wraps ya up in a big, dusty, fuzzy, myrrhy blanket that’s perfectly warm, soothing, and sweet.
Mirra is long lasting, has very good projection, and is made from quality ingredients. Even though they don’t smell anything alike, this could be in the same family and of the same quality as TF Noir Extreme; if you like one, you would probably like the other one, too.
Mirra had me at first smell. 10/10.

Un parfum sophistiqué, rare comme composition, mérite bien d’être un parfum niche, il est très volupté, englobe un coté ambré majestueux, c’est un parfum pour homme virile et non pas pour jeune homme

After investigation, the originality of this frag is probably due to a component which is not stated in the parfume pyramid above, myrrh oil, which gives rise to some confusion or questions in the reviews here (honey? creamy? amber? …).
Myrrh is present here in two forms: myrrh resin (a middle note) and myrrh oil (a base note along with a discrete patchouli).
It’s this oily base note which is really dominant and long lasting in this frag.
I should have read the small booklet which is included in the 150 ml box I bought ! It tells it all: no amber as erroneously stated in the pyramid above, just myrrh oil.

Applause, what a well balanced and interesting perfume.
I didn’t expect otherwise by this house of course.
How to describe this perfume is not easy. It is a compilation of different notes that are not natural easy partners to combine. This perfume is distinctive and also adepts to everyone who wears it.
The opening is a typical Italian based perfume with the the fusion of citric notes. But they are not overwhelming.
The aromatic raisins and nutmeg keep it in balance.
Happily the patchouli is of a good quality so it stays in the background, but gives also balance by its light sweet freshness to the strong fusion of the balsamic amber and spicy nutmeg notes.
This is really a nice perfume for a man who is distinctive but also modest.
When to wear? I guess its a four season perfume:)
Every note reacts different according the season you wear it.
This is a really modern perfume for one who likes class and style in a modest way. It represents in some way the Italian way of life like the Blue mediterraneo series really do.
Manfred – :
This one’s derivative but not really a carbon copy of anything. I get hints of Creed Tabarome, Creed Aberdeen Lavander, Diptyque Eau Duelle, and Rag & Bone Amber. It’s basically all of those mixed together, with some neroli or petitgrain sprinkled in. A lot more boring than it sounds. Basically smells like really strong raisins or something. For me, it’s a pass. Maybe it’s well blended and high quality or whatever, I just don’t see why someone would choose this over the many other, superior offerings out there

Best Coca-Cola scent ever.

A spicy myrrh that will develop into a resinous amber. Mirra has a simplicity that is unusual and puzzling at first. In the long run… a very pleasant fragrance, but you have to be patient and let it settle on your skin.
From the very opening I get an effervescent sensation. Often, fragrances based on warm resinous elements brings, of course, warmth but also a deep and velvety overall feeling. Wearing Mirra, I have this impression of sparkling water. Like a constant effervescent and biting feeling we find in spices like pepper. Quite linear, I could say that there are two stages in the development of this fragrance: An opening of lightly spicy resin with a sweetness that brings to mind a smell of heaten brown sugar (the sweetness will dissipate gently). The citrus, Acqua di Parma has used its audience with this line is not really perceptible here. Maybe a vague and distant orange note with its bright and lightly sweet aroma. That spicy resinous melange will evolve into a resinous, I should say, dry ambery fragrance. I do not get the creaminess that some have experienced but more of a dry, effervescent and a little biting impression.
Mirra is not as formal as I had imagined before trying it. You don’t have to dress up to wear this one. It is not a loud fragrance either. I get 7-8 hrs longevity and the projection is moderate. But it is there sending you glimpses of smell as you move through your day. I concur with pepporoniann’s review, Mirra is one of the few resinous fragrance that would be wearable on more warmer days.
In a few words… effervescent spicy resin evolving into a resinous & dry ambery fragrance.
If you try it, give it a chance and… wait. The dry down is simple, but extremely pleasant!

Mhyrr is a quite complicated scent and ADP is right to give it a try IMHO.
I agree that something is lacking in the parfume pyramid … could be honey, or also a special tuberose-evocative amber I smell only on some of the parts of my skin after an hour.
I’ll try to investigate !
A great frag nevertheless.
QwertgPY – :
One has to be in love with the sweetest myrrh in order to find this fragrance appealing.
It gets better after a dozen minutes, but it’s still very very creamy.
I should give it one more try during wintertime, but guess I won’t since I’ve had enough of this already.

Acqua di Parma masters the blending of aromatic scents, and here they’ve done it again! In Mirra we have the fragrant and sweet myrrh mixed with aromatic nutmeg and neroli on a pleasant amber base. The myrrh notes came out relatively quickly after the initial citrus blast, and gradually became sweeter over the course of the dry down. Just like any other ADP scents all notes are harmoniously blended. No harsh edges.
The performance is at least 7 hours, however the projection can be a bit shy on cooler days.
I like it a lot, and would say this is a good summer myrrh perfume, which is not that easy to come by!
