Paradiso Azzurro

I can't believe I slept on this for so long. Roberto Cavalli created the mother of all summer aquatic scents–and this is just a flanker! Yes, be tempted by that beautiful, deep aquamarine gemstone of a bottle, with its ombre marine effect and sparkling crystal topper–this is one of the safest and best blind buys I've ever purchased, and the scent matches the bottle nicely. It's crisp without being screechy, clean without being soapy or sterile, aquatic without being watered down, and herbaceous without going into chypre territory. Paradiso Azurro is strongly aromatic–aquatic, piney, green, with a hint of citrus and fruit freshness just under the surface. The floral notes add some softness and sweetness, but they fade into the background pretty quickly. Even the vanilla is a bit player–which is pretty refreshing, as this can be a dominating and cloying accord. The water, citrus and conifer notes are the strongest, with the lavender being a support player, adding in that slight hint of "just laundered" cleanliness. I grew up on the seaside where pines and conifers of all kinds grow, so I'd say Paradiso Azzuro captures that summery, authentic oceanside vibe nicely. I'd compare it to a lighter and sweeter Maison Margiela Replica When the Rain Stops, or a deeper, less screechy Dolce Gabbana Light Blue but with 100x better longevity. There's also a hint of Mac Turquatic in there, but with stronger, deeper aromatic notes.

Roberto Cavalli Azzurro Blue is a fragrance that radiates mature elegance and sensuality from the very first spray. The opening bursts with lavender, bergamot, and tangerine – a sparkling yet refined introduction that sets the stage. As it settles, the heart unfolds into a luminous bouquet where watery notes and wild jasmine intertwine with peach, rose, tuberose, and apple. This combination creates a smooth, slightly unisex nuance, making it both feminine and confidently bold at the same time. The base is where the magic deepens: cypress, cashmere wood, sandalwood, amberwood, and vanilla create a warm, sexy, and long-lasting trail. It’s a dry-down that feels both magnetic and comforting, leaving behind a signature that is impossible to ignore. Azzurro Blue is the perfect choice for date nights or whenever you want to own the room at work. It’s not just a fragrance, it’s a statement of power, allure, and timeless sophistication. “Azzurro Blue – where elegance meets confidence, with just the right touch of seduction.”

Paradiso Azzuro is what started my serious love for fragrances. Starts out as woody, fresh spicy, aquatic floral with a drop of citrus; at first, it smells a bit more on the masculine side. After two hours, it dries down to what I can describe as a lightly sweet woody floral that's fresh and comforting (must be the lavender). Also , the fresh spice is gone, and it's replaced by a nuanced sweetness of citrus. It's really well-blended, in my opinion. No specific note outshines the others, but instead, they all work together to create a beautiful fragrance! The best thing about this is that it smells even better when my skin warms it up and I sweat. This is my gym scent. It lasts about 6-8 hours without turning into a "skin scent" - it pretty much stays noticeable the whole time. Because of this, I think it's a freshie that can be worn during winter. Still, it works best during summer, daytime and nighttime. I am in love with this perfume. This is the scent that I want my future children to associate with me.

One of my Favourite perfumes! I found it on sale, loved it so much I ended up buying 4 extra bottles! (75ml bottles for $42 AUS....I’ve already nearly used one bottle in 3 weeks....i overspray but don’t care because I love this perfume so much haha!) This reminds me of Cool Water for women, but way more expensive smelling if that makes sense. The bottle and lid are especially stunning. Looks like a crystal chandelier the way they sparkle. Nice heavy bottle you would be proud to display. The scent is very aquatic and super strong. Reminds me of the ocean 🌊 I LOVE IT 😍❤️

From the land of 45c+ it is so nice to find a different sort of clean and fresh other than the usual suspects of citrus and aquatic. For me the cypress and lavender dominate .It is a borderline unisex fragrance but still leans towards feminine .It lasts and lasts .I had the original card sample in the lounge and the room still smelled of it the next morning from my bedroom . I woke up thinking what is this gorgeous smell . I am very happy with this buy .I can see this becoming a new summer staple . And the bottle is so intensely blue love it .

Got this by chance, had to order it, the ingredients, the beautiful bottle, the name, it was so interesting that I tried and was surprised positively. It is my little good luck perfume, seldom used, but always looking at me, standing on a shelf to give me luck. Reminding summer days in the warm sun in Italy or France, reminding good friendships, good times. It`s definitively one of my favs although I own a wide range of EdPs. I don`t know what Cavalli put in there but he`s gifted.

One of the best perfumes I have in my collection. It's fresh, aquatic, clean, soapy smelling perfect blend. I definitely find resemblance to YSL Libre, not a dupe I think. But maybe its the strong lavender note in both that I seem to be focusing on. I love wearing this casually and to the gym, perfect for the summer. Even though it's soapy and fresh this one is not boring at all. It smells like there's a lot going on and it's just absolutely beautiful and lasts forever.

Cavalli is fantastic, this scent is fabulous. It ́s the best one ever, I mean, it ́s perfect for days when you just feel you want to smell like a woman, and be "dressed" like a woman. Yes, it`s showy, fashion is often showy. It`s delicious in every way. Soft, sweet, sexy, feminine, elegant, mondain, reminds me of the perfect day when everything is right. It ́s nice for the summer and for winter. Also the bottle cheers me up every time.

My first one of Roberto Cavalli. This fragrance is really great, just what I need to feel better altogether, it reminds me of beach days when oil, water and sun mix together on the skin and there is an atmosphere of vacation and inspiration and summer since winter and fall are always back much to quickly. Something relaxing and energising at the same time. Could not have found anything better. And the bottle is also beautiful.

One of my favorite perfumes! Beautiful, strong scent, expensive smelling with expensive looking bottle at affordable price! It gives me the feeling of a vacation at a luxury resort at some ocean destination. It's not for everyone though. It's definitely masculine, there is almost no sweetness or distinctive floral notes. If you are into girly fruity florals you will probably not like this. Longevity - about 8 hours on me.

First I have to say I love the bottle :) It opens on me fresh but also a bit sweet, clean, a little masculine. It gives me ocean vibes a lot, I love it! This will be perfect for summer, makes me think of days by the pool by a expensive hotel or a city by the ocean :) The drydown is so soft and well blended. Its sexy ;) Lasts about 6 hours on me. Im really happy with my blindbuy :) Will absolutely buy a backup bottle.

Very pleasant, sweeter and fruity version of the original fragrance. Probably does not last as long but feels great on a hot summer day. Less masculine than the original one. I tend to identify crisp fragrances as fitting for hot weather, although there is something about the sweet and fruity notes here that seem to hit the spot even better. Not a must have, but I am very happy I got it.

It is a very "blue" scent, overriped fruits (apples, tropical fruits - maybe guava, papaya, coconut, brown banana?) + almost paint thinner fruity note (ok maybe I'm sick - I love it) (crushed cypress needles?). This is what Laguna of Salvador dali should scent like. Very tropical. Color : Blue, turquoise Music: techno! - Laurent Garnier - Breathless

I bought this cheaply a couple of years ago and just keep coming back to it. It smells more expensive than it is, even at full price. So light and fresh. Never cloying or too much. I don't have anything else like it. It's the summer perfume I reach for when I don't know what to wear. Perfect for a summer vacation! It's just gorgeous!

Gorgeous bottle and presentation. Beautiful floral aquatic fragrance. The tuberose smells more like a creamy gardenia (which I love) and it's overall very bright, fresh, sophisticated and well blended. I love it. The performance on me is also great. Lasts at least 6 hrs.

This is a lovely scent, but so masculine... Once you get past the top notes, it smells very much like a lovely male fragrance. It smelled so much like a guy it seduced me! Maybe I'll wear it when I don't care who else is smelling me...!

This is my 4th Roberto Cavalli fragrance. It was a blind buy based on the notes list and it didn't disappoint! It's very fresh and citrussy, but the rose and lavender are quite strong in this too (which I love!)

Insanely Fantastic Gorgeous Beautiful Unbelievable Stunning Amazing FRAGRANCE!!!! Jasmine lavender bergamot water notes cypress and musk in the most balanced way Possible Im just Speechless Straight 10/10

This is how everyone should smell, idc which season it is, day or night. I wish it stays longer on my skin but it stays on clothes and hair, 2 days minimum. Perfect slice of paradise in a perfect bottle!

Fresh pretty, feminine leaning. Projects well and lasts. This is great day summer holiday scent. I mostly get the tangerine/lavender then to watery jasmine. Green woods anchors to the skin.

Fruity without being tart (I'm not fond of tartness in fragrances), aquatic, with a soft woodiness with can come across as almost lactonic. Absolutely adore this. 10/10.

I find this has a very similar DNA to gemma di Paradiso but a slightly more aquatic. Its sweet and has great longevity and sillage on me. Perfect for a summer night out

Nice woody watery tuberose This perfumes really brings you to another dimension I love this Beautiful option for summer

Aquatic, woody, aromatic freshie. Perfect for summer, but nothing ground breaking.

A fresh delicate floral aquatic aroma! Happy to wear it

The fragrance features aromatic, aquatic and fruity-floral accords; it's about salty ocean water and even more so, about the scent of equatorial rain followed by a lot of sunshine. I smell apple pretty similar to the one found in DKNY 's Be Delicious, but less in-your-face. Apple mixed with melon, though melon isn't listed in its pyramid. Makes me think of L'imperatrice but with melon instead of watermelon and I also get a Gucci Bloom vibe ( probably the white floral aspect) .Still, Paradiso Azzuro is not a fruity floral fragrance , but a story about ocean, sand, rain and vegetation. And I must say that the cypress- lavender combo is so refreshing. A surprisingly complex perfume for summer. A keeper in my collection

Oh wow, either our noses are totally different or the perfume is acting very differently on individuals. The drydown for me is full on jasmine-cypress which is a beautiful combination,ideal in a summery vacation type scent if you are having trouble with fruity perfumes. Should be marketed as unisex. Men can easily pull it off.A developing perfume. Starts generically fruity and maybe rottenish, turns salty, aquatic, marine fast. Very aromatic. Feels cold, maybe because of the cypress. Also it is spicy; lavender. Wait for the aquatic, salty and fruity facets to tame and then it's all intoxicating jasmine. Layers beautifully with Paradiso Assoluto, which in my opinion surpasses even the original. A yes from me

I've collected all 4 in the Paradiso lineup. They are very enjoyable to wear. Of the 4, I've found Azzuro and the OG Paradiso to be the most similar and unique. The cypress pine and Jasmin stands out in both but Azzuro has an ocean/marine character to it. It is especially refreshing in the summer. I do not sense the lavender (thank God) and the overall feeling is dry, elegant and clean. In terms of uniqueness, I would rate Azzuro first, followed by the original Paradiso then Assoluto and finally Gemma. A worthy collection and all easy to wear.

I do get cypress a lot but it's so well done and it's so well blended that I do like it! Fresh sexy for the summer days. I get that feeling that I'm arriving at some vacation destination or as I go around the hotels/complex gardens, some greens and some flowres peaking but the aquatic notes of the sea nearby! I like it a lot! I didn't think I did at first sniff (I think I cannot trust my nose at first tries) but after some minutes in the paper, I starting to get some good scents, and now is a solid love for me!

Not an aquatic fragrance fan, but I am of PA! Imo it is the combo of greens (florals and fruits), that sets the wafty-breezy marine notes off enough to be richer than the regular ephemeral aquatics that are for me too fleating (Cool Water, D&G Light Blue, ...), with the cypress and lavender peeking around the corner just enough to give it a Mediterranean flair. And kudos to the coloured ombré bottle. As its flankers in a gorgeous cut glass chunky octagon, snake wrapped neck, and multifaceted stopper. Like!

I didn't expect this perfume to work on me since I didn't like Paradiso. I have to say I'm amazed! The fresh, slightly sweet citrus notes create a beautiful opening. The cypress and lavender notes remind me of a park in a pittoresk mediterranian village. There's a fountain with watery notes while the fruit trees and other florals sway in the distance. What a beautiful summer breeze. It's very well balanced! This could be a unisex scent too. It's fresh but not too feminine or manly.

This is so lovely for the hot summer time ! You get the original Paradiso smell with more aquatic notes. It's really so well done. It really embodies what the mediterranean coast is. If you already know what Paradiso smells like just imagine this... it's like if you put on Paradiso, went for a swim in the sea and came back to your b&b to sip on some lemonade by a bush of Lavender. That's what azzuro is !

This is the perfect fruity for me. I don't like fruity too much, but this hits the right spot, being at the same time fresh, slightly sweet and just a tiny bit tart. It's really nice for the summer, but I wouldn't say it's classy or very elegant. It's pleasant enough to wear as a fleeting day scent, but not intriguing enough for a special event or anything like that. Just a casual summer fruity-freshie.

FRESH AQUATIC APPLES _______________________________________________________ I had the opportunity yesterday to try 'PARADISO AZZURRO'. All I could sense were a lot of apples, fresh aquatic apples. It was amazingly fresh, but nothing more. Since it didn't last too much, I would place it in the category with CK ONE SUMMER 2015. Longetivity: - 2/10 Sillage: - 2/10 All in all: 2 out of 10 points

Very well done! Much more better than the original, which hurts my nose. Paradiso Azzurro smells like vacation. It starts with lavender, but within an hour it turns into a beautiful aromatic scent. Cypress and cashmere wood are evident, along with some tender jasmine. Sillage is moderate, which makes the fragrance perfect for summer. Makes me dream of sipping martinis on the beach by sunset.

A light, fresh composition from the floral aquatic family, perfect for spring and summer. The opening is citrus gently cooled with lavender, which soon gives way to jasmine and watery nuances. The whole scent is grounded on a dry, woody base. It has good longevity and moderate projection, making it a great everyday choice. A big plus is the price, you can spray it freely without any guilt.

I like it. It's an aquatic so the opening is odd. The watery notes stop me from loving it. On me it takes about an hour for the watery notes to give up dominance and allow the other fresh, floral and sweeter notes to come through. I can't say I will reach for this often. It's a cold fragrance which is best suited for spring and early summer. I'll try it again in the spring.

This reminds me of a more luxurious version of Britney Spears Curious. I have Curious as well and they are definitely cousin scents. I prefer Paradiso Azzurro because it has a brighter tone. Most likely coming from the lime and green apple. This scent is more of an aromatic than a true aquatic which is great since I tend to get board of super blue aquatics pretty easily.

A very pleasant aquatic scent with a decent span of longevity. I felt it the whole day on my skin. Bought it after testing it twice. This is my second aquatic fragrance. So you can see I’m woefully under-qualified, but it’s a democratic forum, open to all and sundry. Take people as they come. My impressions coincide with those who left positive reviews.

I would like to add that I have been getting a crazy amount of compliments on this. I don't know what it is about this one but people absolutely love it. I haven't received this many compliments in a very long time, and I don't even know how to react because it's far from being my favorite. I mean it's pleasant enough, but I wouldn't repurchase.

Ok so this isn't a bad perfume. It's just not the best. On first spray you get this sharpness mixed with sweet aquatic smell. The dry down is a lot smoother, but it pretty much remains an aquatic fragrance. It's definitely a hot summer day perfume. I am just not in love with it. I think Roberto Cavalli Aqua is a much better option than this one.

Today, considering nasty, rainy and cold weather, I find this one quite fresh and summary. I think it's woody and white floral, a little bit green-smelling as well. It's a bit masculine for my taste, but not too bad. When talking about paradise, I think Escada gets the idea of paradise better. Not my favorite, but good, nice, likable scent!

Gorgeous bottle and very summery fragrance. Fresh, optimistic and mediterranean in a nice way. I don't even miss a fig leaf which I find indispensable in this kind of fragrance. On my skin it's jasmine/cypress/aquatic sweet (coconut??) sunny combination. Well - I don't go to mediterranean area this holiday - at least I have a replacement.

Nothing special, nothing out of the ordinary. I can not smell the lavander notes that everyone is talking about. It is a summer, crisp perfume, but nothing that would wow me. Plain white flowers in a nice bottle. Just bought this one cause my bf liked it. Will not repurchase...

FRESH SUMMARY AT FIRST BUT AFTER 20-30 MINUTES IT DEVELOPED TO HAVE THE SAME ORIGINAL PARADISO NOTES ITS LONGTIVITY NOT BAD ITS COOL FRESH BUT I PREFER THE OLD PARADISO IT SPA FRESH RELAXING LUXURIOUS PERFUME

It's all about cypress! Very Mediterranean scent and also quite male... I really like it, but I don't think I could use it because it's not feminine enough for me. Summer for men in a bottle.

This is exactly what you think it will be: the original Paradiso with more watery notes. The marketing is spot on. This is a fresh marine cologne, not as tropical as the original.

A nice summery scent, generic. Smells fresh like freshly washed laundry with a hint of floral notes. It’s a Cheapy so worth the price for an everyday summer scent.

Gorgeous bottle and an equally gorgeous fragrance! Fresh-spicy and ideal for summer use. Similar to the original Paradiso, but perhaps a little sweeter.Love it!

Incredible longevity and performance for the price! Can still smell it on clothes the next day.
