![]() I'd say the success of this is due more to it's steamy ocean side ads full of almost-nudes and expected bait-and-switchout for a rather safe and unsexy office aquatic which doesn't do those ads any justice but can make guys who buy into the ads think they're turning folks on as they walk past smelling like dish soap.ĭolce & Gabanna Light Blue Pour Homme doesn't steep itself in as much of the heavy mint and sweet dryer dry sheets aura like a lot of it's competition from the day, staying away from heavy laundry musks and sweet citruses. Dolce & Gabanna hired Alberto Morillas for the task of crafting the scent, as he us known for his many by-the-book mainstream creations that sort of peg him as the David Foster of perfumers, and he delivered yet another dialed-in mainstream generalist as a result. Do I like Light Blue Pour Homme? Well, not so much, but I don't hate it. The second wave of aquatics really got it's kickstart with Polo Blue (2002), Bvlgari Aqva (2005), Versace Man Eau Fraîche (2006), Nautica Blue (2006) and the like, so what better way to get back in the thick of things than to jump on a steamrolling new trend? Not every designer house can be leaders like Chanel or Dior, so when in doubt, innovate on a popular conventional theme. From a business standpoint, I can see a need for a release like Dolce & Gabanna Light Blue Pour Homme (2007). But it is not a smell I would buy again, or miss once it has finally left the marketplace.Dolce & Gabanna had a huge hit in the masculine sector with their original Pour Homme (1994), but after that, their masculine follow-up offerings like By man (1997) or Masculine (1999) were bizarrely gaudy, loud and obtuse upon arrival, being discontinued fairly quickly after release, and outside the cult followings or steep prices they command for collectors, did nothing to further market penetration. Nevertheless, I do find myself wearing it quite often as it is kind of an easy dumb reach fragrance. That doesn’t mean that Light Blue Love is Love smells bad, there is actually some density to it. There is nothing natural about this perfume, which might be its point as there is nothing natural about a fast-food milkshake either. Final thoughts on Light Blue Love is Love Maybe they tried to capitalize on a trend that never happened. Kind of unfashionable, which you wouldn’t expect from Dolce & Gabanna. Light Blue Love is Love smells fresh, artificial and cool. It’s not the sweetest scent I’ve ever smelled, but it comes pretty close. I know many red fruit flavored juices contain a lot of apple juice so maybe that is what’s confusing my nose here. I wouldn’t say it’s primarily an apple-flavored milkshake, although there is also an apple note in this, because I also get some kind of red fruit from the smell. It smells like a fruit milkshake! Which is the vanilla and ice cream notes working together. What does Light Blue Love is Love smell like? Or they can be complete failures which can also be very interesting! Secondly, I could buy a bottle on the cheap. ![]() While pillar releases need to appeal to as many people as possible flankers can get a bit weirder and therefore more interesting. I will admit that Light Blue Forever is amazing though! So why did I buy Light Blue Love is Love? First of all I’m a sucker for flankers. Personally, I’ve never been a fan of the original, I much prefer the female version. The Light Blue line is a range of very popular fragrances by Dolce & Gabanna. A sweet, creamy, and artificial-smelling version of the original. ![]() The 2020 edition is Light Blue Love is Love. Just like Calvin Klein with CK One and Davidoff with Cool Water a new yearly limited edition flanker is released by Dolce & Gabanna in the Light Blue line of fragrances.
