John Varvatos 2026 EDT
Artisan Costiero
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 Notes, and dries down to a base of Akigalawood, Patchouli, and Oakmoss. John Varvatos's Artisan Costiero carries a Favourite verdict, a fresh-led wear.
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.What our verdicts mean →

Scent Profile
Composition
Timeline
Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear
Best Seasons
A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.
Best Occasions
Its fresh, aquatic nature makes it ideal for casual wear, especially in warmer climates, with decent performance for a freshie. While versatile enough for a relaxed office setting or a casual date, its distinctly summery vibe makes it less suited for formal events.
Declarable allergens
We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

- Citral
- Oakmoss
The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this
