TOM FORD Signature Fragrances Costa Azzurra Parfum

Costa Azzura has always been a firm favourite of mine (blasting my way through 3 bottles in just as many summers). A masterfully blended aquatic that transports you to the med. Bright and vibrant mandarin and lemon dances playfully in the air once sprayed. Woody notes of oud, driftwood and vetiver balances citrus notes perfectly. Notes to note (scuse the pun) seaweed and cypress bring in the fresh marine air that adds a beautiful layer to the fragrance. The only reason I didn't 5 star is longevity for me is a little poor and a lot of folks that I know have also made the same type of comment. Overall though, my go to for the summer, I'm never without a bottle!

Costa Azzurra opens with an explosion of fresh, aromatic notes such as lemon, mandarin, and algae, which immediately evoke a maritime atmosphere. At the heart, you can feel a mix of woody and spicy accents such as cypress, oak, and lavender. This provides a unique, earthy depth. The base is rounded off with warm notes of amber, vanilla, and musk, which give the fragrance a seductive and sensual character. The result is a harmonious balance between freshness and warmth, with a natural elegance that makes you feel like you're floating on a luxury yacht.
