WoodyWhat does Acqua Azzurra smell like?
It opens with bergamot, lavender and orange blossom, while violet leaf, white rose and ginger form the heart. Marine notes, gaiac wood and patchouli sit in the base. The overall feel is fresh and green, with citrus and aquatic accords in front and a spicy, woody backdrop softening it.
Most voters recommend summer and spring, and pick it for leisure, daily wear, sport and the office. Most see it as masculine and modern. Longevity is moderate and sillage weak. Guy Laroche Drakkar Bleu and Cartier Roadster Sport (Eau de Toilette) have a close profile.
