No.678 Costa Azzura

Costa Azzura is Eden Perfumes' vegan interpretation of Tom Ford's Costa Azzurra, a fragrance built to evoke a walk along the rocky French Riviera coastline. It opens on salty, marine notes of seaweed and driftwood, layered with a touch of oud and warming cardamom, immediately setting an outdoorsy, coastal tone rather than a conventional fresh-aquatic one. Through the heart, cypress, lemon and mandarin bring citrus brightness balanced by aromatic lavender, echoing the sun-baked Mediterranean scrubland the original was inspired by. The base leans into incense, vetiver, oak and a touch of vanilla, aiming for the same smoky, sun-warmed woodiness that makes Costa Azzurra one of Tom Ford's more distinctive Private Blend releases. Where the original builds real resinous depth and lasts for the better part of a day, this alternative sits lighter on skin and fades faster, trading some of that complexity for accessibility. It still nails the core mood: salt, wood and smoke rather than sweetness or heavy florals, making it a strong option for anyone drawn to coastal, outdoorsy fragrances. Unisex and versatile across three seasons, No.678 works equally well for a casual coastal walk or a smart-casual office day. Fans curious about Costa Azzurra's driftwood-and-incense signature will find this a faithful, budget-conscious entry point.
