Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue EDT Review

I was given a bottle of Dolce & Gabana light blue for my 21st birthday (some years ago now ) by my aunty. I really loved this fragrance, I’ve never really been a big floral fragrance fan – reminds me too much of my grandmother however this was not like the others. It was fresh and light and breezy. A really delicate fragrance, one that really had great staying power on me and my body chemistry definitely agreed with. It’s a lovely every day perfume perfect for the warmer months that’s not too overbearing. Its fresh crisp and clean smelling. I don’t find think it’s an overly feminine fragrance but I like that. Just like the fragrance the bottle is light and fresh looking, understated. One of my favourites

If i wana make a statement and want people to notice me and my scent this will be the go to perfume. Everytime i spray it on it stays with me the whole day, it reminds me of the beach I dont know why but I definately will repurchase.

Out of all the fragrances I own, the most easy to wear are Viva la Juicy, Hippy Fizz and this, Light Blue. I'm not terribly fond of it but it is one of my go to fragrances when I do not have to make a huge statement with a perfume or feel need to blend in and thus I somehow end up using this very frequently since I often go to university.

This was a total impulse buy. I barely smelt it but the fact that it had a blue lid drew me in right away.

The scent is very focussed on a spicy, woody lemon which almost overpowers every other note in a way similar to the way Diorissimo has an extremely dominant lily of the valley note. It is very crisp and clean and as the name suggests, light and well suited for late spring to early autumn.

While the sillage is very good, I found the longevity disappointing and often carry a 5ml decant of it with me in my bag.

While the packaging leaves much to be desired, I am a total sucker for glass with particular textures such as matte or frosted which did influence this buy somewhat.

I got my 25ml for $45 which was a little pricey but overall if your fragrance options are limited it is a good choice. Personally for me it's a little too maintream which makes it lose the uniqueness but it's so easy to wear everyday that it's not a huge deal breaker.

I received this as a gift several years ago from my boyfriend, and it still smells the same. It is slightly astringent smelling. However it is also a clean and almost citrusy scent. It doesn't last as well as some perfumes I have. I would say it lasts about two hours. It's really light once it calms down. I probably would not buy the scent, myself, but it's nostalgic because it's one of the first perfumes he ever bought me. So, Id probably purchase again only on that fact. It's not really for me but if you like really clean scents, you would probably like it. It kind of has an alcohol smell to it though and it is a bit masculine. Guys seem to like it on me.

I chose this perfume to try as I often got a pleasant woft as a friend walked past. It was floral but not musky and had staying power. I got compliments almost immediately. It has a soft sophistication about it and I loved that I could still smell it on my clothes a few days later. Will definitely purchase again.

I have purchased this multiple times now, but I still use it from time to time. The scent is very alluring and will pick the curiosity of a person who will have a quick sniff off of you when you walk or pass by. I got hooked with it when it was newly released, but not anymore but will always be in my go-to scents that will always make sure I still have some stock.
