It’s not often that perfume houses leave it so long to make a flanker but in this case, we had to wait a whopping 16 years to get our hands on the newer version of Light Blue known as Light Blue Intense.
Light Blue is the perfect summer daytime spritz, especially if you’re going on vacation. That said, I’m not going to suggest it if you want a strong, outgoing evening fragrance as this just isn’t it. However, if you’re in love with the scent like I am then this will easily become one of your go-tos. And that’s not because it’s overly intense but the combination of notes can be somewhat nauseating to certain noses. Objectively speaking, it’s probably not for everyone as I have heard some people talk about how it is a little headache inducing. It played a significant role in my fragrance journey back in my younger days and I just can’t let it go. For that price, it also makes a great handbag spray. You can pick up a 1.6 fl.oz bottle for just shy of $55. Some designer fragrances can easily break the bank but D&G’s Light Blue is great if you’re on a budget. However, I wouldn’t say it was intense enough to be worn in colder weather neither does it have the character of a winter perfume as there’s simply not enough warmth.

It sits beautifully on the skin during the daytime and has a wonderful sunny charm. If you’re looking for a summer fragrance then Light Blue is right up there with the very best. There’s something luxurious about it without being pretentious so it feels accessible to anyone.
The smell kind of reminds me of sitting on a breezy beachside sipping cocktails or browsing through boutiques in a quaint Italian town. It’ll certainly be noticed without taking over and that’s what a lot of people look for in a fragrance. Moreover, Light Blue isn’t an offensive perfume and boasts a moderate projection that’s ideal for everyday wear. Despite being a fresh citrusy perfume, of which there are many, it manages to stand its ground and has become somewhat unmistakable. One of the things that really made Light Blue a success, in my opinion, is how easy it is to wear.
There are bright hits of lemon and green apple at the head and these linger throughout, even as the woody cedar and sweet notes of amber and musk come through. While there are hints of jasmine, white rose, bellflower, and even bamboo, I can tell you that Light Blue is far more fruity and zesty than that description would have you believe. One of which I was at the time!įloral fruity is the best way to describe the scent. This scent I vividly remember smelling EVERYWHERE as it became a real hit with young women. Oliver Cresp was responsible for creating the now iconic fragrance, Light Blue, back in 2001.
