John Varvatos ARTISAN is debuting this month as the latest addition to the designer's fragrance collection. ARTISAN completes the trilogy of the John Varvatos men's fragrance portfolio and continues to build on the impact of this highly original lifestyle brand. We had a pleasure to use it since yesterday and it smells amazing, it is getting on our "Favorites" shelve.
John Varvatos was closely involved with every step of the development of his new fragrance, so ARTISAN bears his imprint: the finely wrought details, the signature mix of old world craftsmanship and modern technique. According to the designer, "Every aspect of my new fragrance, Artisan—from the carefully calibrated elements that comprise this unique scent to the handwoven flask that contains it—reflects the artisanal hand. The result is a truly timeless quality, one that evokes both my respect for the past and my vision of the future."
The ARTISAN bottle was inspired by the clean lines and casual elegance of a traditional flask. Its profile echoes the contemporary silhouette of the Classic and Vintage fragrances but, as with all John Varvatos fragrances for men, different textures create a striking new design. Hand-woven rattan in a rich caramel color encases the flask, giving each bottle its own eclectic character. The metal cap with an antique blackened finish features a debossed logo. The result is an unmistakable sense of painstakingly crafted luxury that exudes its own unique charm.
