Which Should You Buy?
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.
Perfume Parlour's budget take on Tom Ford Costa Azzurra Acqua, that breezy Mediterranean fresh-woody. It captures the lemon-juniper-myrtle opening and resinous pine-cypress heart, just rendered flatter and with the original's already-moderate longevity trimmed.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.
Occasions
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.
Seasons
Built around fresh citrus, juniper and green resinous woods, it shines in spring and summer warmth where its breezy coastal character is most at home.
Occasions
Light, clean and unisex, it slots into casual, office and active daily wear, with enough ease for a relaxed daytime date.
