The Azzaro brand was created in the image of its founder, Loris Azzaro. A Tunisian-born Sicilian who embodied the essence of Mediterranean luxury—tanned, sensual, hedonistic—the designer quickly established a reputation in the late 1960s with his glamorous and sexy fashions. The brand expanded its offering to include fragrances, introducing Azzaro for Women in 1975, to be followed soon by the modern classic Azzaro pour Homme in 1978. From its inception, and continuing through its newest releases under current artistic director Vanessa Seward, Azzaro embodies a chic and jet-setting lifestyle synonymous with present-day luxury.
The earliest edition of Azzaro fragrances was created in 1975 and the newest is from 2013. Azzaro fragrances are made in collaboration with perfumers Maurice Maurin, Michel Almairac, Aurelien Guichard, Lucas Sieuzac, Christophe Raynaud, Annie Buzantian, Alberto Morillas, Gerard Anthony, Martin Heiddenreich, Richard Wirtz, Michel Girard, Laurent Bruyere, Karine Dubreuil, Olivier Pescheux, Richard Ibanez, Fabrice Pellegrin, Nathalie Feisthauer, Jacques Cavallier, Francoise Caron, Ursula Wandel, Raphael Haury, Christine Nagel, Benoit Lapouza, Sidonie Lancesseur, Annick Menardo, Domitille Michalon
