Azzaro pour Homme Cologne Intense, a vivid Eau de Toilette. It was in 1978 that the house of Azzaro crafted one of its greatest perfumes: Azzaro pour Homme. There is no need to introduce it, so far-reaching is its renown. Azzaro pour Homme is unquestionably one of the most famous masculine fragrances on the planet.
When the house of Azzaro crafted its first perfume, in 1978, the intent was to evoke a man who makes women dream, solid and reliable, gentle and fragile. This initial perfume held within it the charm of summer nights, while wrapping itself in mystery and sensuality. Its success was immediate. Today, 43 years after its release, it remains one of the best-selling perfumes in the world. In 2021, Azzaro pour Homme treats itself to a new limited edition of its scent. It becomes Azzaro pour Homme Cologne Intense and refreshes itself with a new citrus and aromatic breath, as though straight out of an Eau de Cologne of old.
Azzaro pour Homme Cologne Intense, the freshness of dawn
As the name of this perfume immediately suggests, Azzaro pour Homme Cologne Intense draws on the Eau de Cologne of days gone by. And what could be more characteristic of this type of fragrance than freshness? Eau de Cologne was highly appreciated by men because it allowed them to have an extra touch of freshness on their skin at the end of their grooming routine. It was about treating oneself to a daily chill full of energy and liveliness. This is precisely what is found in the top notes of Azzaro pour Homme Cologne Intense. To achieve the intended effect, Azzaro relied on lime, a very refreshing citrus fruit, slightly bitter and endlessly tangy.
Lavender at its zenith
Then, in its heart, Azzaro pour Homme Cologne Intense emphasizes a more aromatic facet. For this, it turns to lavender, an ingredient that is at once floral, herbaceous, balsamic or camphoraceous. Mainly grown in the departments of Haute-Provence, Drôme and Vaucluse, the lavender here comes from a sustainable development supply chain. Selected with Azzaro's partner, Givaudan, the lavender in Azzaro pour Homme Cologne Intense comes from a supply chain that guarantees fair income for its producers while preserving the environment. Highly qualitative, it recalls the floral essence that was already used in the Eau de Cologne of the early last century.
Azzaro pour Homme Cologne Intense closes with mastic at dusk
Finally, Azzaro pour Homme Cologne Intense ends with a more ardent and warm ingredient. The Azzaro brand ultimately relies on mastic to seduce us, while preserving the very Mediterranean spirit of its original essence. Indeed, mastic is particularly present at the heart of the garrigue. This small shrub produces a kind of resin that is then used by perfumers, and that gives off a relatively strong and green balsamic odor. This is where the exceptional longevity of Azzaro pour Homme Cologne Intense comes from. Particularly persistent, this perfume moves from an intense freshness to an ultimate touch that is more reassuring and vibrant. At once lively and textured, it embodies on its own the entire know-how of the Azzaro brand.
