DRAKKAR BLEU
Good release from Guy Laroche.
Don’t expect a Drakkar Noir. This is a fragrance that aspires to be a blue fragrance, but it has a fairly sweet base, though not a gourmand sweetness. It’s pleasant. I see it as more suited to younger people than those who prefer Drakkar Noir. However, being a fragrance exclusively for summer, anyone of any age can wear it. The longevity isn’t bad for its price range; 2 hours, maybe lingering for the 3rd or 4th hour as a skin scent. It’s encouraging to see that Guy Laroche is still making decent fragrances. I wish his fragrances performed as well as they did decades ago. I remember the Noir being a beast that lasted over 24 hours, and now it vanishes in 10 minutes like 90% alcohol... This Drakkar Blue is recommendable.
