Acqua Azzurra Gianfranco Ferre for men

I like this fragrance, but it is only a medium like. It would be a strong like, except for the fact that the longevity is not good. Initially it comes across very powerful, but then it settles much weaker and doesn’t seem to last very long.

This fragrance beautifully balances blue aquatic and the ocean aquatic notes, and then pulls strongly towards the “island in the ocean” vibe with the relaxing florals. The citrus has become one with the scent as if by magic. The floral element gives it some lightness and elegance. It runs the border of almost having too much floral/lavender for me, but this also makes it unique and a worthy addition to my collection of aquatics. The florals kind of remind me of what Chrome limited edition 2015 might smell like without the strong minerality. The green scent is reminiscent of Chrome Aqua, similar in sweetness too, but not quite as sweet.

Overall, it is a fresh easy to wear floral/green summer aquatic. Due to the poor performance, I plan to use this with another layer (Acqua di Scandola), or in sequence with another longer lasting fragrance being applied after this fades.

This is a Great Aquatic Scent , Fresh, Clean, Light and Unique. It smells very enjoyable and pleasant , similar to Amalfi Coast Breeze,The Color of Box is the Symbol of Capri Island and the Seaside, The art of bottle design and Cap with Turquoise Blue color, All of them have a very Unique Beautiful contrast between Smell, Bottle , Box , Its name Azzurra and their Colors, In my opinion, It is above many of its genre. It opens up with fresh citrusy , soft Spicy and floral notes in the background then dry down is green woody. The Violet Leaf and Orange Blossom notes are dominant in this perfume. In my opinion, Acqua Azzurra is One of the best Men's Aquatic perfume with Italian Style. I'm so glad that I have it in my collection and I love it very much. Longevity is Average , Highly Recommended.
Two Thumbs Up.
Bravo Gianfranco Ferre !
Rating : 8 / 10

Very nice summerscent. Bottle and name does it justice. If there was an intense or perfumeversion, this would have been my signaturescent for sure. Now its too weak to keep my attention, but nevertheless its nice enough to have a bottle in summer.

Light, fresh fragrance. Very basic and wish it had better longevity and projection. This is still a pleasant scent that seems like a missed opportunity but I still like it.

It's very fresh, green, aquatic, spicy.

The opening is gorgeous, green, very spicy and fresh, a little salty, citrusy and kinda minty (probably from patchouli). Anyway, there is no such of dry-down, cuz the performance is kinda bad, but after some time I smell some woods in the background.

This smells so great, but the performance is bad and my skin doesn't kill the fragrances. I get ~3h with no projection at all... Probably in high heat I'll get better results

Nice, light freshie. Don't think it smells like Nautica, but it does have an aquatic vibe that works well in hotter weather. Unfortunately, longevity is terrible however. It is inexpensive so resprays shouldn't be an issue

Smells identical to Nautica voyage ... but it doesn't perform as well (and that's not saying much !) Voyage is roughly half the price.

This does have a lovely translucent blue bottle though. You decide if that's worth the extra money !

Nice, elegant and comfortable perfume that reminds me of Davidoff's Cool Water before all reformulations, although maybe a tad bit less natural smelling and less notes. On my skin it survives. Very Mediterranean.
Score: 7/10

Nice smelling aquatic with notes of citrus and rose. But longevity, projection and silage are terrible. Within 20 minutes it's gone. Not worth buying.

Profumo molto fresco,leggero e piacevole. Totalmente estivo. Praticamente è uguale a Ralph Lauren Blu, solo che costa ben di meno ;-)

If you don't have anything good to say, don't say anything at all... So, I thought what good thing can I say about this perfume and all I came up with is that thank god it doesn't last long!

Opens with faint citric ginger, bergamot and a touch of lavendar. Hints of wood and patchouli make for a slightly more interesting drydown. Overall, a very light and crisp ginger based fragrance that starts out as a skin scent and stays a very shy skin scent. Projection and sillage are low, longevity is low to moderate. I can't reccomend this one.

Score 4/10

Opening is a citrus, water accord with orange blossom and bergamot. The rose is always in the background of this fragrance, even with the opening notes.

Middle notes I can smell the rose and violet and a bit of ginger. It’s very well done and not too strong or feminine. Pleasant mixture.

I like AA. It’s a nice aquatic that is put together well. And it’s not overly pricey. I bought the miniature bottle and am enjoying it. It’s nothing that’s going to shock you or blow your socks off, but it’s a fine fragrance.

Aquatic,watery and sporty sea scent. As I predict, perhaps it would last longer in a dry, cold weather. As for tropical use, this kind of frag would give a fresh blast then fades away quickly and faster it goes when sweating.
But anyway, it's a nice scent to have, casual use anytime of the day.

Tested on a store today and after first spray immediately wake up my senses. It is very aquatic, clean smell just like nautica voyage. I have to own one of these though doesn't last especially on a humid tropical country like mine. Could always spray more if needed, just wish it would last longer. Score 7.5/10

My bf used to wear this, it really drives me crazy... I'm still proud of me having suggested him buy this perfume !
Oh and I should add that it lasted on him really long.
Besides, to me it was a perfume of great character

it's very nice for summer hot days but unfortunatly almost no stayin power on me (read: dry skin) ;/

very light, fresh...
smell good, but cant lasting

Nice summer cologne.
Bergamot, lavender and ginger are very clear.
Fresh, crisp, transparent.
I think for a mature man rather than for a very young one.
