What does Le Grand Bleu (Extrait de Parfum) smell like?

The top pairs grapefruit, davana, pineapple, bergamot, ginger and apple, so citrus and fruit lead while ginger adds a light spice. Magnolia and rose give the heart a soft floral touch. In the base, musk, vanilla and caramel sweeten the scent, while patchouli and vetiver keep a woody balance.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good, though the votes are few, so treat that with caution. The fresh, citrusy build makes it easy to wear day to day, and it sits comfortably on both men and women. Sospiro Vibrato and Creed Aventus Cologne have a close profile.
