Artisan Blu

Artisan Blu by John Varvatos is a bright, fresh, and aromatic fragrance with a green herbal core that evokes a clean, soapy, seaside feel. It opens with citrus notes like bergamot and bitter orange, paired with aromatic basil and lavender, creating a crisp, invigorating burst. The composition evolves into a delicate, powdery green scent with herbal nuances from clary sage and palmarosa, blended with earthy cedar and pine, giving it a refined, modern masculine character. The drydown reveals soft floral touches from iris and orange blossom, balanced with a hint of pistachio, adding a subtle sweetness without becoming cloying. Though it lacks distinct aquatic notes, the scent is reminiscent of Mediterranean coastal forests, with a green, aromatic depth reminiscent of Drakkar Noir or Acqua di Parma’s Colonia Club. The fragrance performs best with multiple sprays and is suited for warm-weather wear, offering a light, wearable, and versatile profile ideal for daytime use in office settings or leisurely outings.
