Why so much criticism?
Finally, the Corona numbers go down again and I go today for the first time eagerly in the perfumery of my confidence. Already in advance I had dealt with the new releases, which saw the light of day in 2021. I particularly focused on the "fresheners" as I have always been a fan of blue, citrus and aquatic scents. Spicy, smoky and heavily woody scents could never really pick me up.... God knows why :p
On my test plan were 3 scents: Light Blue Forever (with the supposedly awesome smelling blood orange), MontBlanc Ultra Blue and Cologne Bleu by YSL.... I think you now know what kind of droughts I go for ;)
When I arrived, the new Light Blue already jumped into my eyes, because it was pictured in the shop window. Since my little heart made a jump and I went without further into the store.
Sprayed on and smelled it. Eyes frown and sniffed again...
Well, what can I say? Indeed, a strong blood orange which I was allowed to perceive before in no other fragrance. But so mega good as often described? I do not know. For me definitely not worth the money. I could have also cut open a grapefruit and spread it on my skin. Would have been in my opinion the same smell ... Well, there were two left. So I reached for the Cologne Bleu and sprayed it on. A typical drugstore freshness opening and already after a short time a clear similarity to the TuttiFrutti Invictus. For me, unfortunately, also a grab in the toilet? One was now so still left: Ultra Blue by MontBlanc
On the net and on YouTube increasingly heard negative, which is why I had no high expectations of the fragrance.
Sprayed on and smelled:
The fragrance definitely starts very citrusy and pleasant. If I had to describe the top note, I would say that it is a good mix of 2828 by Acqua Alpes and the green "Skin Food" cream by Weleda. Overall, the scent is rather linear in my eyes, but maybe my nose is just not trained enough to pick out the individual components.... The scent defentively doesn't fill the room when you enter it. Personally, I like that well^^ Can of course also be due to my but quite economical amount of 2 sprays ;) Durability for a freshie above average. For sure no very uniquer fragrance, but the rating of 6.5 is in my eyes then already very deep set.
