Description
Chrome Summer Edition is inspired by the Mediterranean, and created as a fresh and generous fragrance for men, a blend of water and the sky. The fresh and woody fragrance introduces complexity and true feelings. To celebrate the summer, the masculine Chrome offers freshness enriched by notes typical of the Mediterranean. It opens with bergamot, grapefruit, mandarin and Italian lemon. The heart beats in a rhythm of flowers, sea notes and neroli, while the base closes with Spanish cypress, Moroccan cedar, papyrus and black tea. The glass bottle has geometric lines and presents a canvas for a landscape in shades of blue. The fragrance is part of the Citrus Woody Aquatic olfactory family and is available as 100 ml EDT.
Chrome Summer Edition 2013 was launched in 2013.

I get a gorgeous spicy & marine accord with
Azzaro Summer 2013… I think it is the Black Tea
and Sharp lemmon that gives this affect but I adore
this Summer Flanker… This is definitely a Fragrance I
wear for Me & a Uniquely Great Men’s Fragrance from Azzaro.

A nice little twist on the original, although I like the lemon/neroli sharpness of the regular offering, better. With this 2013 Summer flanker, you’ll notice a smoothing out of the Chrome idea, and an entering in with more tea and fruit that would probably apeal to a broader audence of modern fragrance fans today.
To be honest, your wife, girlfriend or sister could probably sneak into your bedroom while you’re at work, spray this on and nobody she passes at the store, school or her job would be any the more wiser that she’s wearing a scent marketed for men, whereas the original I feel would be a dead givaway as far as masculinity is concerned.
That said, I like this flanker even though it’s not anything groundbreaking or too different. It’s blended well and I’m not gonna start crying like a little bitch about something that smells good being “too synthetic” (gtfohwts!)
It’s just a shame that longevity blows with Chrome Summer 2013. After 30 minutes I feel I need to respray. There’s just not enough sharpness of the original to cut through and stick around. I could see this edt. being a good to wear during a late afternoon on the way to dinner to an Italian restaurant. It would be impossible to offend.
Regardless, I’ll be using this scent sparringly, due to it’s limited release. And as an unapologetic Chrome fan, this offering is interesting enough for me to possibly look into past and future limited edition runs. Respect to Azzaro for this one.

Heaven on earth. I absolutely adore it. Azzaro has made a huge mistake not to include it in his range but to have it discontinued! I do not really like the basic chrome but this edition simply is the best fresh male smell that was ever created. Some light & magnificent mix of watermeloon & delicious meditereanen spices. I can’t find one particular known smell but the mix is brilliant. A lovely fragrance that wiil make you feel like being on holydays. Even nicer is it does stays for hours. I had it sprayed this morning & can still smell it myself 10 hours later! I’ve used it as any eau de toilette. A couple of sprays in the neck, about 4 sprays on my t-shirt & shoulders & 3 sprays on my chest sprayed from my collar. Bring it back Azzaro

Smells pretty good..First though is this smells familiar…reminds me of a little Versace Pour Homme or Lacoste Essential Sport….I like it but nothing to rave about.

Firstly the bottle gets top marks, so cool. Finally a Chrome that I love. Never was a huge fan of the original, I found it too sharp, this though is greatly softened by the tea notes, which are extremely nice, it’s a very soothing fragrance which received lots of compliments. I will stock up. Spillage is a little soft, but it lasted well.

It’s ok, and has a cool bottle design but nothing beats the original ‘Azzaro Chrome’.
its like a sour, boring and dull version of the original.nothing special. it starts very synthetic standard citrus burst then quickly dries down leaving a fresh woody tea smell. yes it smells clean and citrusy and aquatic but its just not good something smells off especially on my skin it just doesn’t work i’ll stick to the original. projection is good but it has poor longevity about 4 hours max 6/10

#dda,I just got my 2013 version in the mail,this has nothing to do with the 2012 version.
I have both,the 2012 is pure grapefruit.
this has a similar vibe to old chrome plus the tea note.
all what I am getting is tea.
if you like tea,black tea,get it.
It was hard to find.

This is the best fragrance I have purchased for myself in years if not ever. I enjoy the fresh scent myself. In addition, I have received numerous compliments from young women regarding the scent…and suffice it to say, I am not in their age group! I read about it in Details magazine; glad I acted on the recommendation I read there.

This did not work for me at all. Sprayed it at Macy’s because my girlfriend really liked the scent from the bottle, and when I sprayed it on my hand, I got this humongous burst of basil, which I’m surprised it’s not listed as one of the notes.
At the top the basil-like note is so strong and bitter that it almost smelled like BO, which is definitely not a good thing. I couldn’t smell anything other than that bitter note. After about 20-30 minutes it dried down to a more fresh smell but it still wasn’t great for me.
This may work for others but on my skin it smelled awful.

I really enjoy this 2013 chrome summer edition more than all the other chrome fragrances.Its just as fresh as the origanal chrome. Its very airy as it surrounds you in a citrus floral fresh but then its calm downed by the black tea and cedar.yep!Fresh n Woody.

I got this for my brother. I was never interested in Chrome, but the cool bottle and the idea of a summer edition made me purchase this (without smelling it).
My brother and other people like it, they all agree on one word to describe it: “fresh”.
But to me it smells like many, many other summer/sport fragrances and thanks to Chrome Summer Edition, I discovered (finally) that Grapefruit and my body chemistry don’t get along. I have other perfumes with grapefruit and they all have the same reaction on me, they turn sour, almost like sweat, awful.
The same day that I bought Chrome Summer Edition I also bought L’Eau D’Issey Summer 2013 (love-hate) and then I sample the new Burberry Summer (2013). I should have stick with Burberry and return the other two.
