Chrome by Azzaro (1996) Review

About Chrome by Azzaro (1996)

Our Chrome Azzaro review begins back in 1996 by the French-Italian perfumer Loris Azzaro. He was most famous for creating lines of women’s and men’s clothing along with a wide range of fragrances. Chrome seems to be one of his best creations as it is still one of the most popular and worn colognes today.

Unfortunately, Azzaro passed away in 2003 at the age of 70 but his legacy continues to live on. His company was acquired by the group “Reig” and still continues to produce new products.

What does Chrome by Azzaro smell like?

Chrome fits the description of many mainstream colognes today. It has the fresh, citrusy scent to it with a bit of a sweetness added as a kicker.

There is one thing that makes this cologne different from all of their popular competitors. In the background, you get an aftertaste of a metallic scent. This “aftertaste” creates a unique smell that differentiates it from any other cologne that is seems to be heavily worn in today’s world. I find this cologne is simple but yet gives you enough of a different flavor to stand out of the crowd.

Here are the notes you will most likely notice;
