Description

Citrus Riviera is a bright mandarin, zesty lemon, and smooth tonka bean capture the carefree elegance of the Côte d’Azur. Evoking sunlit days on the Cap d’Antibes pontoon, strolls through the Villa Maeght, or moments in Picasso’s Vallauris studio, it’s a luminous scent of Mediterranean leisure and artful living

Product Origin: France

Additional Information

Citrus Riviera is part of the Collection Azur — a vibrant tribute to Mediterranean scents, capturing the essence of Cap d’Antibes, Corsica, and Capri. Created with illustrator Édith Carron, the collection blends perfume and art into a single panoramic Mediterranean scene.

Mood: Everyday Luxury / Artistic & Niche. This fragrance captures the "Carefree Elegance" of the French Riviera. The high-quality Italian citrus and Moroccan neroli oils provide a polished, expensive freshness that elevates a casual white shirt into a statement of leisure. Inspired by Picasso’s studio and Mediterranean art, the addition of Strawberry Neo Jungle Essence and Eucalyptus adds a conceptual, "off-beat" depth that separates it from standard citrus colognes.

Occasion: Summer / Heat-Proof / Daily Wear. Engineered for "Sunlit Days," the cooling eucalyptus and vibrant orange blossom cut through high humidity, acting as a revitalizing mist that stays crisp even in intense heat. Its transition into a smooth tonka bean and white musk base makes it a versatile "Mediterranean Staple," perfect for everything from a morning stroll to a polished afternoon business lunch.

Strength & Projection: Moderate Projection / High Projection. When applied to pulse points, it radiates a luminous, airy aura that mimics a sea breeze—noticeable and refreshing without being intrusive. Due to the tenacity of the Indonesian Patchouli and Vetiver, it maintains a vibrant, diffusive presence for 7–9 hours, outlasting typical citrus fragrances by a significant margin.

The Connoisseur’s Comparison: "For those who admire the zesty, floral clarity of Tom Ford’s Neroli Portofino or the green, aromatic energy of Diptyque’s Philosykos, Citrus Riviera offers a more 'fruity and textured' alternative. It takes that iconic Mediterranean citrus structure and adds a unique strawberry and fig sweetness, resulting in a fragrance that feels more luminous, complex, and arguably more 'playful' than its peers."

Perfumer: Ralf Schwieger

"Citrus Riviera draws inspiration from the Mediterranean coast, its flowers, and citrus fruits. Carried by the Mistral winds, marine fragrances bloom in the rolling waves, infused with minerality and salt crystals. A burst of freshness emerges in a bath of citrus fruits and sun-drenched figs. Moving inland, tender jasmine, orange blossom, and immortelle unfold amidst the chorus of cicadas. These Mediterranean flowers delicately scented with eucalyptus then embark on a journey guided by the water's rhythm, to intertwine with patchouli and vetiver. It's a tale of water, citrus, and sun."
