John Varvatos Artisan Costiero is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2026. Artisan Costiero opens with Lemon, Mandarin, and Yuzu, settles into a heart of Nectarine, Sea Water, and Floral, and dries down to a base of Akigalawood, Patchouli, and Oakmoss.

This one's a crowd-pleaser, a clean aquatic that brings a smooth, salty zest to the table. Forget the usual JV performance anxiety; this freshie holds its own, though some might find it a touch generic. Works a charm for anyone after a reliable summer scent.

About

Artisan Costiero opens with a lively burst of yuzu, mandarin, and lemon, a bright citrus cocktail that quickly mellows into a marine heart. Imagine sun-drenched nectarine and delicate florals mingling with the fresh sting of sea water. The dry down introduces a sophisticated blend of akigalawood, oakmoss, and patchouli, grounding the aquatic freshness with an earthy, woody depth. It's a smooth, salty, and subtly sweet marine scent from start to finish.
