Roberto Ugolini - Azzurro

This term literally refers to a deep shade of sky blue, but it has come to be associated with a life well-lived on free-spirited summer days bursting with excitement and opportunity - perhaps that is why this color is also used for the jerseys of the Italian national football team? In keeping with that thrill-seeking, fun-loving vibe, Herbert Stricker has said that he thinks of this fragrance like “wearable ice cream.” 

Opening with fruity notes that are equally fresh and joyful, Azzurro’s first layers are ripe with grapefruit, strawberry, and coconut, in particular, although the overall effect is refreshing and not tropical. These bright scents then evolve into more nuanced, jammy smells like damask rose, black currant, and magnolia, with the sense of champagne for a tangy sweetness. Amberwood and musk makes for a conventional conclusion that unites the range of fruitier higher notes.
