Azzaro has launched Aqua, a new limited edition fragrance for men:
Introducing AZZARO AQUA, a refreshing Limited Edition Eau de Toilette by Azzaro. Presented in a sleek, masculine glass bottle, accented with shiny silver, AZZARO AQUA is a turquoise cocktail of citrus notes, shaken with invigorating mint and spicy woody accords. AZZARO AQUA exudes a cooling wave of pure freshness…the perfect fragrance for summer.
The fragrance notes include citrus, cassis, mint, tarragon, basil, cedar, nutmeg and woody notes.
Azzaro Aqua is available in 75 ml Eau de Toilette, and can be found now at Macys in the US or Nocibe in France. (quote via macys, additional information via nocibe, osmoz)
There is nothing wrong (or exciting, really) with those notes, but blue juice…
…and why does the “masculine bottle” look suspiciously like nail polish?
It does sound pretty standard.
I love tarragon in a fragrance, and I will probably sniff this out, but I am afraid–and fairly certain–that the name “Aqua” means only one thing: wet/fresh/calone-laden/commonplace/tedious/done-to-death. That’s what it usually means. Even Bulgari couldn’t escape the curse.
It’s certainly the right color for that sort of thing!
Just what the world needs: Another fresh, aquatic masculine. How innovative. How original. *Yawn*. Someone please…Make. It. Stop.
Never.
A lot of people hate on aquatic masculines, but the number of feminine florals far outweighs this olfactive group. Yet i never hear any gripes.
Acqua Di Gio is still a huge seller everywhere, and i for one dont blame perfumers for trying to continually 1-up that fragrance.
If you haven’t heard anyone griping about the approximately seven million fruity florals that were introduced in the last decade, then you weren’t paying close attention. Believe me, they get at least as much vitriol as their male equivalent, the fresh-aquatic.
Hmmm…I think whatever is currently ubiquitous gets complaints. Straight up florals are actually pretty rare these days, comparatively speaking.
The mint does appeal me.. Maybe it’s even better then AdG..
One can hope!
Oh dear, another one of “those”.
Yep.
