What Does Artisan Blu Smell Like

Artisan Blu by John Varvatos is a men's aromatic fragrance that opens up with the bright, sharp scent of bitter orange, coupled with the calming, mild sweetness of French lavender. Accompanying these scents is the subtle spice of basil, and the light, peppery citrus of bergamot that lends a refreshing edge to the opening.

As the initial notes begin to soften, the fragrance transitions into its heart notes. Here, the herbal, slightly sweet scent of French clary sage takes the stage, accompanied by the floral, fresh scent of orange blossom absolute. The exotic, rose-like aroma of palmarosa blends perfectly with the fresh, green scent of Egyptian geranium. The heart includes a light touch of Florentine iris, offering a powdery, soft floral undertone.

As the scent develops over time, its base notes become more noticeable. This stage is marked by the warm, woody scent of cedarwood, which is complemented by the fresh, resinous smell of stone pine. The earthy musk of patchouli adds depth, while the unique warm, woody, and slightly sweet aroma of pistachio tree resin subtly lingers, providing a distinctive dry down to the overall fragrance of Artisan Blu.

Review of Artisan Blu

Artisan Blu by John Varvatos is a men's fragrance that speaks volumes of a crisp, breezy day by the seaside. It's a scent that carries the refreshing zing of citrus fruits, married beautifully with the invigorating notes of fresh greenery, making it a perfect accompaniment for your daily routine, leisurely weekends, or even athletic activities. A distinct tinge of spiciness adds a surprising twist, keeping the scent dynamic and far from the mundane. The woody undertones provide a grounding base that keeps the scent anchored amidst its breezy freshness. Despite its aquatic freshness, Artisan Blu does not overpower, making it an excellent choice for those who like to keep their scent profile subtle yet memorable. The fragrance mainly shines in the warmer months of spring and summer, bringing a cool, refreshing aura that mirrors the season's liveliness. While its longevity may not be its strongest point, its value and the sensory journey it provides make it a fragrance worth considering.
