Bel Azur
by Tory Burch
Bel Azur by Tory Burch is a crisp, fresh citrus woody fragrance with a clean, breezy character that evokes a seaside summer vibe. It opens with bright bergamot, soft peony, and a light neroli, creating a vibrant, slightly aquatic feel. As it dries down, the scent settles into a quiet, woody base of cedar and vetiver, lending it a subtle, dry earthiness that balances the floral and citrus notes. It is universally described as unisex, with a light sillage that is most effective close to the skin. The performance is notably weak—most users report it lasts only 2 to 4 hours on skin, with only moderate longevity when applied to clothing. The fragrance has a clean, lightly soapy quality reminiscent of fresh laundry or a summer beach holiday, with some noting faint similarities to Light Blue, though it lacks the tropical warmth of that scent and is more grounded in its woodiness. It is not bold or distinctive, and some find it generic or reminiscent of air fresheners or body sprays. Despite this, a significant number of users appreciate it as a pleasant, gentle, refreshing scent perfect for warm days.
