Azzaro's Wanted line has grown into a full family of fragrances. The original Wanted, Wanted By Night, The Most Wanted EDP Intense, and The Most Wanted Parfum all target the sweet-spicy crowd โ but each brings a different energy level. Here's how they stack up.
Wanted (2016) โ The Original
The lightest and freshest of the bunch. Wanted opens with lemon and ginger over a heart of cardamom, juniper, and dries down to a warm tonka-vetiver base. It's sweet and spicy but with a brightness that makes it work in warmer weather. Think of it as the approachable, daytime-friendly entry point to the line.
Best for: Daytime, spring/summer, casual wear
Energy level: Medium
Wanted By Night (2018) โ The Date Night King
Darker and warmer, with cinnamon, mandarin, and tobacco creating a seductive evening fragrance. The fruity-cinnamon combo is addictive, and the tobacco-vanilla base gives it genuine depth. This is the fan favorite of the line and arguably the best value for money. At under $40, it punches well above its price class.
Best for: Date nights, fall/winter, evenings
Energy level: Medium-high
The Most Wanted EDP Intense (2021) โ The Sweet Bomb
Cranks the sweetness to maximum. Toffee, cardamom, and a thick, sticky sweetness dominate. If you thought Wanted By Night was sweet, the Intense takes it to another level entirely โ almost lollipop-like. Projection is massive and longevity is excellent. This is polarizing: you'll either love it or find it overwhelming.
Best for: Parties, clubbing, making a bold impression
Energy level: Very high
The Most Wanted Parfum (2022) โ The Refined Beast
The Parfum dials back the unrelenting sweetness of the Intense and adds a smoky, ginger-forward character. It's still sweet and powerful, but more balanced and sophisticated. The ginger-vanilla-wood combination is addictive, and performance is nuclear โ 10+ hours easily. This is the best version for people who want power without being a candy store.
Best for: Cold weather, special occasions, evening events
Energy level: High (but controlled)
