I'm a big fan of the artisan scents with my favorites being Artisan Blu and XX Artisan Teal. I wanted to try one that I didn't have. This is probably my least favorite of them all. It is extremely soft and sweet. Not my kind of scent. Will probably have to layer it with 1 or 2 of my other hundred scents that I have. If you like soft and sweet you'll like this but it leans more unisex/feminine. Projection isn't strong and longevity may be about 3hrs.

This smells amazing!!
Very good perfum that goes with every occasions
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Got the sample scent in the mail, opened it during work, several co-workers checked it out. All of the women loved the scent, bought it now complements are coming in, definitely get this.
John Varvatos Artisan Costiero was a major disappointment for me, especially living in Florida’s heat and humidity. The opening citrus is pleasant for a few minutes, but the fragrance collapses almost immediately on my skin, turning into a faint skin scent with almost no projection. I’m active, outdoors often, and expect a fresh scent to hold up in high temperatures — this one doesn’t. It disappears so quickly that it feels like I never applied anything, and it doesn’t match the strength or longevity of the other fragrances in my collection. If you live in a hot climate, sweat easily, or prefer noticeable, long‑lasting scents, this will not meet your expectations.
I was pleasantly surprised. I have had other John Varvatos colognes. And normally they don’t last long. This one does. I was first attracted to the beautiful scent. It feels like you are on the Mediterranean! And this lasts a good 8 hours on my skin. Love it!
I applied John Varvatos Artisan since morning, but the smell was still good until night.
Used a tester bottle in store multiple times finally made my purchase. Extremely happy I pulled the trigger. Great scent good longevity for a summer fragrance and for a John Varvatos
Fraud on address and how they paid for items
Smells great but does not last long at all on my clothing or skin. Will continue to wear during the summer/warm months.
