![]() For me it is a nice scent but I don’t think it is one that I would reach for often. There is a moment of astringency but it does fade back. It is more complex than I first thought it would be. I am glad I tried it as the scent shifted from what I thought i would be upon first blush. This is a scent to wear to a barbeque or a picnic or an outdoor concert. It is a scent that is suitable for working in the office, but because it isn’t one that sticks close to the skin, i would have a hard time wearing it in an office environment. I would also wear it in an out door environment. It is definitely a day time scent and it is a scent that is more suitable to warmer weather. which is something to be aware of if you work in an office with those sensitive to scent. It is one that is noticeable to those around you who aren’t in your personal space. It does not hold close to the skin to provide you with your own personal scent, but it doesn’t announce you before you turn the corner either. It is what I like to think of as a mid range scent cloud type of perfume. I applied it in the morning and it was still detectable at bedtime. The scent applied lightly to the wrist lasted a full eight hours and beyond. The scent requires very little to last a long time. I don’t think magnolia is right but it is very close. I looked for further scent notes to see if I could identify the florals but there wasn’t one I could find. while I’m guessing the floral notes come from bergamot, it has an almost magnolia scent to it. The card of notes says that there is mandarin and grapefruit in the blend and I can find the slightly bitter notes from the grapefruit in the scent. I know there is bergamot as I can feel it tickling the back of my throat, but it isn’t the dominant scent, which means there isn’t the eye watering sear that i tend to get from bergamot. Then there is a back note of citrus to lighten it up so the florals don’t feel too heavy. After a few minutes the astringency faded. When first sprayed on the wrist it came off as very astringent. It is however one that changed as I wore it. I will say it definitely feels like a summer scent. ![]() Dolce&Gabbana Light Blue featured in an exhibition at the Museum of Arts and Design in New York as one of the century’s most ground-breaking scents. Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana are extremely proud of Light Blue’s legacy, which includes several perfume awards. ![]() They describe a story in which man meets woman. The Dolce&Gabbana Light Blue perfumes represent the aroma of sparkling summer days yielding to evocative evenings. But before I get into my thoughts, let’s see what the official description says. This scent proved to be an interesting one. Still I moved forwards and I am glad I did. So when I pulled it from the box of samples to give it it’s week of trial, I wasn’t that enthused. My first sniff of it felt very astringent. And to be honest, I put the sample in my box of samples and let it slide towards the bottom.įor me this perfume did not give a good first impression. ![]() I sniffed it once in a store while shopping and it didn’t have an instant appeal so I never bothered delving further into it. I know this perfume has been around for a while, but I for me this is a first use situation.
