Skunky's take: A fresh breeze, my nose just got some air.
How does it perform?
From 22 community ratings, all out of 10.
A short but sweet date; a travel size in your bag is a good idea.
Whispers to close friends, never shouts at a crowd.
Looks good without trying too hard.
The price makes you think, so a small size is a smart start.

What does Blue Sail smell like?
It opens with green leaves and apple, and aquatic notes carry the heart. In the base, amber, musk and moss soften it and keep it calm. The accords add citrus, floral and green shades, and the overall impression is airy and slightly synthetic.
Longevity and sillage are rated weak, though few votes have been cast, so that verdict is tentative. Its light build points to casual, everyday wear. Nautica Voyage (Eau de Toilette) and Calvin Klein CK One (Eau de Toilette) have a close profile.
