Light Blue
Light Blue is a Mediterranean idea compressed into a bottle: Sicilian citron and Granny Smith apple arrive first with a crisp, cold-water snap, tart enough to read almost metallic.

By the editors · 2 min readLight Blue is a Mediterranean idea compressed into a bottle: Sicilian citron and Granny Smith apple arrive first with a crisp, cold-water snap, tart enough to read almost metallic. The heart softens the edges with bamboo and a pale jasmine, green rather than floral, the skeleton of a scent more than its body.
The drydown is where it shows its age — a cedar-musk-amber base that was revolutionary in 2001 and now reads comfortably familiar. It has almost no weight; projection is polite, longevity modest. Built for heat: beach afternoons, white cotton, sweat that never quite turns the fragrance sour. A default summer fragrance for the last two decades, for reason.
