Even the strongest and most independent, proud and stern man can be sensual and tender. This is precisely the message Alfred Dunhill's Desire Blue fragrance strives to convey to its wearer. Its main highlights are lightness, unobtrusiveness, simplicity, yet an impeccable sense of style and harmony. The fresh composition is perfect for the warmer seasons, when you want to feel free and relaxed.
The initial notes fully reveal citrus shades of invigorating bergamot, sweet mandarin, as well as juicy lychee and lotus flowers. This light aromatic extravaganza will not linger in the air for long, making way for the "heart" of the perfume, which features sweet orange and rosewood, offering a pleasant scent of noble rose. In the trail, animalistic, barely perceptible and incredibly alluring musk unfolds, along with sweet, playful amber, caramel-toned tonka beans, and benzoin resin, which prevents the base notes from sounding too saccharine and sweet, balancing them with its light resinous and astringent qualities.
There are scents that irritate the senses and the mind, and this scent is one of those that irritates, although the level of irritation is moderate, not everyone will be able to use it constantly and willingly. For example, it sits heavily on me. The scent is somewhat fresh and not overwhelming, but it feels like a winter scent. Maybe someday it will suit people in their 40s-50s with a normal taste, but there is nothing special about it that adds value and makes it necessary. Gradually, this scent is becoming a thing of the past, and perhaps it is already a thing of the past today.
A pleasant and unobtrusive water. The fragrance is fresh from the first notes to the last. There is no heaviness of woody notes in the base. It sounds very summery. Suitable for a man of any age. I had a small sample from America, received a long time ago. The one I received from Makeup is exactly the same. As always, everything is excellent.
This fragrance has a very pleasant spring scent that is fresh and light. People around me are simply delighted by it, and women especially love it. In summary, Dunhill has truly created a fantastic masterpiece. I have been using it for 10 years and have no intention of switching. The only problem is that it's not always easy to find.
