Do remember that this is the original 1996 Acqua di Gio. We’re gonna take a look at the Dolce Gabbana Light Blue, and the legendary Acqua di Gio. Within the same brand, we could find pretty big differences. Previously, we talked about how the Bvlgari Atlantiqve compares to the Marine. With the abundant products to choose from, picking one from many would be troublesome. The characteristics of each perfume may be too different with someone’s life clock. Sometimes, that’s all you need.Choosing the right perfume that suits very well to a person could be very tricky. It will provide you with something easy to wear and versatile at a good price. Is it going to stand out as something new? Nope.

It has sort of become the no-brainer go to scent for a lot of people over the years. Crisp, bright, and sharp…but it has a charm to it and I dig the smell. The lemon and the apple in the opening act are the highlights for me. Light Blue really is a great starter perfume for women, as it does everything well enough, and isn’t some extreme scent that folks will either love or hate. I wouldn’t really call this an evening wear or romantic fragrance (though not out of place either), but this Dolce & Gabbana is one that can be worn to school or the office by ladies of any age group.Īnother solid option and perhaps even more versatile is Bright Crystal by Versace. It doesn’t require more than a few sprays to do its job. Overall, Light Blue is a safe casual wear perfume that is clean and inoffensive. Overall Impressions of Light Blue for Women It may not be the most original scent to go with anymore, but a great deal of that is precisely because it can be worn in so many scenarios. It’s definitely not a niche perfume and has obviously struck a chord with its mass appeal. This is a ‘can do’ daily wear fragrance, that can easily cover your bases, in terms of usefulness. Not really a night club fragrance or date night perfume, but it’s nice enough to garner complements, even if it’s not really ‘sexy’. It’s got good versatility, for work, school, or just casually hanging out. However, it pretty much is a year round scent, that you can spray on and forget about. I would say that this is best for the spring/summer months, which is what it was designed for.

This is part of the reason that Light Blue has been so popular for so long. It’s one of those can be sprayed on in the morning and be there until you shower in the evening. In terms of longevity, this fragrance just keeps going, which you sometimes don’t expect from something that isn’t a heavy perfume.

Yes, that distance will come in closer, but it will have a nice scent bubble for much of the wear. Plus, the perfume can project itself a good ways away. Instead, that initial sharpness is just noticeable. It’s not heavy or a ‘thick’ kind of fragrance.

However, it is still quite noticeable and it for sure, didn’t become just a skin scent when I tested it out.Īt first, it does have a decent amount of ability to create a scent trail. Projection wise, it’s not a beast, as the name ‘Light Blue’ suggests. Finally, the musk and the lemon dominate things, until it fades away completely. I also get some woody base notes, jasmine, and that rose note from the opening.Ĭedar provides that smooth freshness at the base of the perfume and is really quite nice, when paired with the floral notes. The dry down picks up some muskiness, which is all to common with these sorts of citrus scents. That said, it is still a perfume which smells quite good, just not as much as it does at first. It is still light and clean but just doesn’t feel as beautiful as it does during the opening and the apple note is almost completely gone. It seems to become a more earthy/floral/woodsy scent, although the lemon doesn’t fade away. When it dries down, I feel that Light Blue loses some of its charm. I really like the opening, even if it can be sharp, as I find the lemon to be nice with its sort of sugary lemonade aroma. It provides that watery juiciness and lighter feel to the composition. The lemon is the main player here and while the apple is strong it is sort of the backup.

Light Blue doesn’t come on too strong or pungent in my opinion, however, it isn’t completely weak either. It is a very crisp and refreshing scent at first, and I can see why, this is such a popular choice in the summertime. I also distinctly noticed the rose note, that gave it a slight floral take on the predominantly citrus open. The opening of Light Blue is a bright citrus affair, which is held together by the lemon and apple notes. Notes include: rose, apple, musk, lemon, jasmine, and moreĬlick here to try: Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue By Dolce & Gabbana For Women. What does D&G Light Blue for Her Smell Like?
