Tom Ford Azure Lime captures the easy style and relaxed glamour of Mustique, a private island nestled in the Eastern Caribbean. “There is a captivating sense of warmth and luminosity there, balanced with an old-world charm that is unique to Mustique,” says Tom Ford.
Opening with a radiant flourish of lime, evocative of the region’s lush citrus groves, Tom Ford Azure Lime skillfully evolves into a casually elegant scent.
The first effervescent inhalation is a lime water infusion paired with juniper berry. Citrus notes of Valencia orange, lemon and bergamot then combine with the wild aromas of Oregon mint and crisp black basil for a brilliant start.
Subtly evolving, the heart reveals an intercontinental richness with the introduction of Egyptian jasmine, Tunisian neroli, violet leaves, and orange flower. South African buchu, a treasured local herb, brings a rush of mint and citrus, softened by delicate Moroccan orris butter.
As the fragrance dries down on the skin, the warm sensuality of sandalwood, patchouli, tonka bean and a musk accord provide the right amount of intensity, while sea moss and oakwood extract lend a charming twist.
