Artisan by John Varvatos for Men 4.2 oz EDT Spray Tester

Artisan by John Varvatos for Men 4.2 oz EDT Spray Tester is a refreshing, sophisticated Eau de Toilette that combines vibrant Mediterranean citrus, aromatic herbs, delicate orange blossom, and warm woody musk. Launched in 2009, this distinctive fragrance captures a relaxed yet refined style, offering a bright, clean scent ideal for men who appreciate understated elegance and everyday versatility.

The fragrance opens with an invigorating blend of Sicilian clementine, tangelo, mandarin orange, wild thyme, Spanish marjoram, and Greek lavandin, creating a lively citrus freshness with a subtle herbal character. At its heart, North African orange blossom, Indian murraya, and ginger introduce an elegant combination of luminous florals and gentle spice. As the fragrance develops, warm amber, smooth musk, and modern woody accords create a soft, refined finish. This refreshing composition makes Artisan an excellent choice for daytime wear, professional settings, weekend outings, and warmer-weather occasions.

Bottle Description: John Varvatos Artisan features a distinctive flask-shaped glass bottle wrapped in intricately woven, natural-colored rattan. Its artisanal woven exterior, warm golden tones, and understated metallic cap reflect the fragrance's craftsmanship-inspired aesthetic. The generous 4.2 oz spray format provides a practical size for regular use. As this is a tester, packaging and decorative accessories may differ from the standard retail presentation.
