The review
On paper, Stanley Beach is a strong bet if you want Costa Azzurra for less.
Alexandria Fragrances sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Costa Azzurra's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
At $117 per 100ml it costs 74% less than Costa Azzurra — the 5th cheapest of 6 twins we can price.
Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength Alexandria Fragrances publishes, the price per 100ml, and how firmly the match is claimed. How it really smells on skin is what the votes below are for.
What it's built to smell like
The original opens on myrtle, seaweed and driftwood, turns to oakmoss, vetiver and cypress, and settles into labdanum, olibanum and amber. That is the brief Stanley Beach is working from.
Top
- myrtle
- seaweed
- driftwood
Heart
- oakmoss
- vetiver
- cypress
Base
- labdanum
- olibanum
- amber
Salty driftwood, herbs and moss evoking a sun-warmed rocky shore; green, woody and coastal.
