Tory Burch’s fragrances to me are not very original at all, and Bel Azur is no exception. It is nice enough, mainly a citrus with a little earthiness peeking through, but if you’ve got lots of perfumes or have been in the ‘fragrance world’ a while, this will likely be boring for you. I pick up mainly the bergamot and vetiver. Just has a ‘familiar scent’ that many Burch fragrances seem to have. Moderate sillage and not that great on longevity. Not a perfumy nor overly feminine scent, might even lean a little unisex to some noses. Might be nice in the high heat and humidity. I don’t pick up any floral here at all. Meh!!!

I randomly tried this on in the store, as I was so attracted to the beautiful bottle and found that I REALLY enjoyed the scent. I ended up purchasing a full bottle, hoping it would be my new Summer scent. This scent has a very citrus, Mediterranean feel, and reminds me of Summer holidays. Sadly, this performs more like a body spray than a parfum, so I’m sure I will go through the bottle very quickly. The longevity is moderate, and projection is VERY poor. Too bad, as it is a lovely fragrance. I don’t feel that the performance justifies the price. Perhaps layering this with the lotion would produce better results. Love the fragrance but disappointed with the performance…I see I’m not the only one. I would also agree that there is a masculine component to this, which I really like…maybe the bergamot.

It’s breezy, refreshing and light – all the things you want in a summer perfume. But it does not last more than half an hour on my skin. Not willing to pay this much for an average smelling scent with zero lasting power.

I enjoy this but I don’t love it. The person who said it smells like the warm towelettes you get on long flights is spot on – that is all I can think of now when I smell it. It is a comforting and relaxing scent but it flattens out and does not last on my skin. I will be passing it along.

I got a sample of this at Sephora. Initially, I was really smitten: It’s fresh and zingy, perfect for hot summer days. I thought for sure I’d want a full bottle. Less than an hour later, I’d changed my mind as it was nearly gone. Many citrus based perfumes have poor longevity and I’ve come to expect that. Even by that standard, however, this does not perform well. At this price point (or less) there are many other, similar citrus perfumes that last longer.

On me, it’s very masculine. I would call this unisex. Reminds me of something but I can’t place it, Maybe Light Blue? Have a mini won’t purchase a full sized bottle. It’s not for me.

This is not for me but I cannot complain about the performance. 4 sprays from a manufacturer’s sample vial on my forearms lasted 11 hours with moderate sillage (constants wafts from an arms length throughout the day until I washed it off). This was unfortunate for me since I disliked it but might be helpful to anyone who has seen mostly poor reviews about performance. I suppose we are hyper-aware of the scents we have a strong aversion to. I’m definitely getting more than others are reporting.

This smells like the hot towels the flight attendants hand out with tongs somewhere over the Atlantic–gender neutral, inoffensive and gone in half an hour.
A bit of citrus, generic flowers and some Pine-Sol.
A pleasant and uneventful trip.

Citrus sitting on peonies. I’m not really a fan of peony. It feels stiff, without depth. I’m not a fan but I can see someone wearing this in the summer or on vacation.

Definitely unisex aroma. Not bad, but Im not impressed. I agree with the comment below that it smells somewhat generic and doesnt feel like it comes from a $100 perfume bottle.

I’ve tried this in sample size last summer. I’m not into citrusy scents as much but decided to give this a go. My husband loved it but it gave me a headache. I got that initial zing from the citrus for about an hour (which I actually liked) and then it mellowed out into a tree flavored car freshener with random hits of florals. It ended up smelling too masculine and strong on my skin that I could hardly smell anything else. The longevity was poor (in my case a blessing) as I only got around 4 hours of wear out of it. Definitely not worth it IMO.

Admittedly this has that generic cologne vibe veering on air freshener but in a nice way. I like it. It sort of smells like the above generic-ish fresh scent but with some Jo Malone Wood Sage and Sea Salt and Acqua di parma Blue Mediterraneo Mirto di Panarea mixed in. It has a seaside freshness with some green herbal freshness. I like fresh scents a lot, so I’d buy this if it was $15. Because it honestly smells like a $10-$15 body spray, not something that is almost $100.

I have a mini of this one. It’s a very pleasant light citrus fragrance with a touch of florals and wood. I absolutely love it. It has a classic “eau de cologne” vibe to it. Suitable for the warmest and sunniest days. But little staying power, and not worth the full retail price, IMO.
Evgen_ka – :
i sampled this today and imo it’s not really worth the $96.00 price tag for 50 mls. it’s a citrus floral with light woody notes. it’s very soft and pleasant, but not long lasting, within a 1/2 hr it’s totally a skin scent. the lime is very nice as a top note, but it’s not really ground breaking and way too expensive for what it is.

I received a sample of this today and like it a lot. It’s very citrusy and woodsy with a nice breezy, seaside vibe to it. I agree with others that this is slightly masculine and could really be a unisex fragrance. I will save this for spring and summer. It definitely seems to be a fragrance for warmer weather.

This is a lot more feminine than I expected. It’s a citrus scent, but a sweet citrus scent with peachy facets. In the opening you do smell some alcohol, which I don’t really expect from higher end scents, but it’s bearable. The drydown is very woody, but the wood does not smell as synthetic as the wood in other popular scents right now. The wood is dry and dusty, but not sharp. Nice cedar. I like it even though I usually can’t wear woody citrus scents. It does have a slight salty chlorine pool vibe at times, but that just makes it interesting. It also sort of smells like pine, my boyfriend says “it smells like a christmas tree”, but he loves it. It’s sort of like a mixture of Versace Eros por Femme and Jo Malone Wood Sage & Sea Salt. I would buy this for summer. It’s fresh, and chic, and pretty.

Reminds me of an Hermes fragrance, has that groovy sunny 70s vibe, but a little fresher, cleaner. I had this for test just once but would love a larger sample – most people are saying summer but I could see myself really getting into this for fall and winter
boboni9 – :
A mild, citrus floral. I mistook the scent for one of my (hair) styling products soon after spraying Bel Azure, and getting ready for the day.
In the same family as Light Blue, but not as sweet. There is some slight bitterness in the drydown.
DonBS – :
I tried this in Sephora and went back to buy a roll-on within a week because I like it so much. On me it is not even remotely unisex, let alone masculine, but more like a floral (clearly peony) version of Light Blue or Bergamotto di Calabria – at least, it is in that camp of scent types. Perhaps not as well put together or as long-lasting, but well worth a try or just taking a chance on a small bottle / roll-on if you like other perfumes that feature bergamot and cedar.

Hi everyone. This review is based on my recent visit to Sephora, where i did 4 squirts to the inside of chest. My t-shirt absorbed some of the juice. 8 hours later I am still getting lovely wafts of the scent, so, i lift my shirt and sniff and yes the scent is still there! This is a lovely unisex juice ! I knew there was some woods in the mix somewhere, and sure enough the note breakdown lists vetiver and cedar in the base. In the start, the peony gives it a bit of a feminine side, but quickly this turns into a unisex/ maybe even dare i say, masculine scent,…thanks to the fresh bergamot, and the vetiver/cedar. I totally see myself wearing this, and possibly playing around with layering say, layering with molecule 01 perhaps.

Ok Tory Burch is imitating Marc Jacobs , one flanker after the other…This one is nice, it has a green/ citrusy vibe, very fresh…but I couldnt remember what it smells like at the end of the day…it smells alsp vaguely masculine.It has very little character, smells vaguely floral, with a hint of vétiver throughout..giving it kind of a unisex undertone…I don’t know, it is a non descriptive scent, expensive, nice bottle, but not sure what it is about !? The name implies summer, the beach, the sea !? I remember thinking very little when I tried it …only if you are looking for a fresh citrus scent with a unisex vibe..
