Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Riviera Lazuli EDP
This one's divisive: some adore its Mediterranean luxury, others find it a generic citrus freshie repackaged at a premium. It’s got that “expensive summer holiday” vibe, but check the price tag against your expectations - you might just be paying for the pretty bottle.

Our Verdict - Costa Azzurra Acqua EDP
A gorgeous, fresh aquatic that people simply adore, despite its fleeting nature. This Mediterranean escape delivers a clean, green, and piney aroma that transports you to a seaside holiday, if only for a short while. Shame it's discontinued, as the clamour for dupes is real.

Season and Occasion Fit

Riviera Lazuli

Seasons

Best For:
Summer
Also Works:
Spring

A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.

Occasions

Best For:
Casual Sport
Also Works:
Office

Its fresh, clean, and moderate sillage makes it suitable for casual daytime wear, especially in warmer weather. While some find it too generic for its price, its inoffensive nature allows for office wear, but it's not potent enough for formal events or intimate dates.

Costa Azzurra Acqua

Seasons

Summer

Spring

A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport
Also Works:
Date

Its fresh, clean, and understated nature makes it ideal for casual wear and the office, as its weak projection won't offend. However, its poor longevity and projection make it less suitable for formal events or dates where you desire a stronger presence. It's too light for formal, but can be worn to the gym.
