Wanted
A vibrant, spicy-fresh masculine built on a sparkling lemon and ginger opening over a warm tonka and woody base. Energetic and easy to wear, with a playful gun-cylinder bottle.
Wanted opens on Lemon and Ginger, moves through Cardamom and Mint, and dries down to Tonka Bean and Vetiver. At $60 - $100 it is which sits at fair mid-range value, with moderate (6h - 8h) on skin. Reasonably safe to blind buy if the note list appeals to you.

EXPERT ANALYSIS — COMPOSITION & PERFORMANCE
Composed by Fabrice Pellegrin & Michel Girard for Azzaro in 2016, Wanted sits in the bright citrus space of modern perfumery. Below, our research team breaks down its olfactory structure, measured performance, and ideal wearer.
The Opening
It opens on Lemon, Ginger, Lavender, a bright citrus and warm spice introduction that sets expectations before the heart emerges.
The Heart
The middle phase is green aromatic and juicy fruit: Cardamom, Mint, Apple carry the core of the scent through its most expressive hours.
The Dry-Down
The dry-down anchors on a dry woods and golden amber base of Tonka Bean, Vetiver, Amberwood, the phase that clings closest to skin and lasts longest.
Who Should Buy Wanted
Wanted leans masculine but is wearable by anyone who enjoys the style. Its season vector points strongest to spring, and its day/night balance makes it best suited to versatile day-to-night wear. If you gravitate toward bright citrus and green aromatic compositions and want a more moderate, easy-going wear, it belongs on your shortlist.
No major red flags in the composition, but fragrance is personal — skin chemistry can shift the balance of notes, so a sample wear is always wiser than a blind purchase at this price.
