D&G Light Blue Eau Intense EDT

2017

The Light Blue upgrade for people who hate reapplying all the time.

D&G Light Blue Eau Intense
citrus
aromatic
marine

Citrus-marine over a juniper heart and amberwood-musk base — Alberto Morillas's 2017 entry in D&G's Light Blue Pour Homme line, denser and more aromatic than the original. The marine and woody accords carry the drydown past most aquatics in the category. Wears strongest in summer, leans daytime.
