With each spritz of John Varvatos Artisan Acqua. a lovely men's fragrance. you can feel the ocean wind on your skin and the sand beneath your toes. The fragrance's opening notes of citrus hybrid tangelo. sweet mandarin orange. galbanum. angelica. and mastic arouse the senses with a light. airy atmosphere. While spicy coriander. jasmine sambac. red geranium. and medicinal lavender lend their own exotic. floral touches. middle notes of green basil. toscanol. palmarosa. and clary sage provide a herbal. earthy character that is impossible to ignore. Finally. the flavorings are completed with a rich. powerful tone by the base notes of crisp fir resin. seductive musk. and heavy patchouli.
