Corsica Furiosa, the impetuous character of Corsica
With its Costa Azzurra fragrance, it takes us to the heart of the Mediterranean. This juice is a solar and refined concentrate, as luxurious as it is radiant. Presented in a beautiful golden bottle, it transports us to an elsewhere rich in emotions and well-being.
Costa Azzurra, a fragrance synonymous with travel
For most Americans, the Mediterranean is a place to discover at least once in a lifetime, far from their culture and as fascinating for its art of living as for its gastronomy and its beauty. However, it is precisely to transport us to this region that Tom Ford has made the Costa Azzurra perfume. It must be said that the American designer knows this part of the planet well… Before opening his own luxury brand in 2006, he held successive positions as artistic director for the houses of Gucci and Yves Saint-Laurent. France and Italy are therefore its welcoming lands. With Costa Azzurra, he takes us to a place that is familiar to him. This very contrasting fragrance is thought of as a wave of freshness, even as sea salt floods the atmosphere, mingling with the woody breath of the dunes. It is a comforting ray of sunshine sweeping away damp skin. “I have always liked fragrances that have the ability to travel,” explains Tom Ford. Costa Azzurra captures the relaxed yet sexy atmosphere of the Mediterranean. For me, it's the ultimate escape ”.
Costa Azzurra, the luminous and solar scent of Tom Ford
On the aesthetic side, Costa Azzurra is fully in line with the world of Tom Ford. Luxurious at will, it seduces us with its refinement and its golden color. Its glass is finely sculpted to draw numerous streaks, as the Black Orchid perfume had done before it. Its transparent walls are illuminated with a golden juice, as if it possessed all the light and power of the sun within it. What is more, this luminous shade echoes the golden lacquering present on its label and on its stopper. Here it is not only an evocation of the Mediterranean, but also the natural elegance of Tom Ford.
Costa Azzurra alone combines the freshness of the sea air with the woody breath of the Riviera. It is like a saline and refreshing wave sweeping the body in the sun. To do this, he starts off with a trio of lemon, myrtle essential oil and juniper berries. It is therefore just as refreshing as it is resinous and woody. This aromatic sensation continues in its heart, with the presence of lentiscus and cypress resin. Woody and enveloping, Costa Azzurra seems to come straight from the scrubland. It ends with a final touch of oak and cistus absolute.
