The story behind the bottle.
The Most Wanted Parfum by Azzaro is a Woody Spicy fragrance for men, crafted by the talented perfumers Michel Girard, Nadège Le Garlantezec, Roxanne Kirkpatrick, and Shyamala Maisondieu. The composition opens with the invigorating zest of ginger before transitioning into woodsy notes that settle into a rich base of Bourbon Vanilla. This fragrance has become a staple in many wardrobes, especially during colder months, praised for its strong projection and long-lasting nature. However, it is also criticized by some enthusiasts as feeling derivative of the broader sweet-caramel/tonka trend in men's fragrances today.
Apply one or two sprays to your pulse points — it has strong projection and lasts for up to ten hours. The Bourbon Vanilla base takes about an hour to fully bloom, so give it time to develop on the skin before reapplying.
