Benetton Verde, Benetton Rosso, Benetton Giallo and Benetton Blu are five new fragrances by the house of Benetton presented in collection Colori 2010. Two fragrances are editions for women and other two aim at men.
The house of Benetton bases their creation, collection and games on colours. Designers of the house create in honour of variety offered by our world. Colour is a universal means of communication and each colour has separate meaning in different cultures.
Uniting colours and fragrance is not an unusual step by Benetton. Cheerful combination of creativity, universality and youth offers new compositions and new contents. Red, yellow, green and blue are closely connected with certain feelings, locations, plants, flowers, as a combination of picture and emotion. Red suggests red berries, strength, passion, rose flower; yellow reminds of us summer, stars, energy and gold; green is the colour of hope, football, nature, mint leaves; green associates of jeans, ocean, freedom and peace.
Each flacon is marked with a special colour created as an unfinished graffiti. Painting with colour suggests a spontaneous gesture which unifies all cultures and generations. Design Studio Fabrica created flacon for the Benetton Colori collection.
Benetton Blu Man – freshness, cleanliness and the big blue of the sky and the ocean. This fragrance opens with lemon and lavender accords, a heart includes green notes of basil, rosemary oil and clary sage, while a base is flooded with waves of harmony combined of white cedar, patchouli and cocoa.
All four fragrances are available as 30ml EDT. An accompanying collection encompasses deodorants carrying the same aromas. Available from the beginning of 2010!

I did a blind swap for this, because I wasn't going to wear what I swapped off. This one is a bit too blended for me, though it certainly doesn't smell "synthetic" or anything like that. The lemon, lavender, etc. combination is not one I really enjoy, unless, perhaps, there is good note separation. I liked the opening, but soon there is that blended quality with the lemon, lavender, herbs, a bit of amber, etc. that I don't like. So I was hoping this would largely dissipate and then I would get a little bit of a Borneo 1834 kind of thing (cocoa and patchouli), After around 2.5-3 hours, it does dissipate quite a bit but not entirely. The patchouli then emerges, with a touch of dry cocoa, but I don't get wood at this point, unless it has been there all along and it's really light. A few hours after application, this fragrance seems to have really come together. No, it's no Boreo 1834, but it's more wearable, closer to Armani's Attitude for men, though it's lighter and smoother than that one. I'm not a big fan of this kind of fragrance (the drydown) because it is like a hardened cream and doesn't have much note separation. However, I could see myself wearing this once every couple of months as a change of pace. Overall, it's technically sound and well done, though not unique. However, if price is taken into account and you want this kind of fragrance it's a great deal.
Fresh? Clean? I get lavender.... lots of lavender. Ive read that this is a clone of JPG's Le Male, which admittedly, ive never smelled. I will say, however that this fragrance reminds me very much of amouage's reflection man albeit a much cheaper version. Silage and projection, as is the case with most benetton frags, is pretty bad. The dry down is much different from reflection's; still pleasant, but not my cup of tea. I cant call this scent fresh (more of a floral aromatic), nor do i get half the notes it claims to have.
Again, I cant call this fresh or even blue for that matter. I also cant recommend it to the younger crowd as i dont believe it would really be appreciated. I wont say its a bad fragrance, just mislabeled; it should be benetton purple. Also, i wouldnt wear this during the day
This is a strange creature to my nose...At first application, I felt like it was yet another JPG clone! Oh no!! However, it didn't persist long on skin, but the JPG vibe does linger a bit longer on my shirt and on paper. More on that later...It starts of as a blast of sweet, powdery lemon that lasts about 10 minutes or so and then transitions into a heady, earthy herbal scent (mostly earthy) on my skin. The basil and sage are the prominent notes to my nose and maybe rosemary is there to back up his buds without really showing it's face. The herbal goodness lingers for a good 2 hours or more and then makes its way into a delightful cedar fragrance that has accents of sweetness and powder from the cacao and (the seemingly) eternal lavender note(the base lasts four hours or more). I don't get the patchouli at all which is a shame because that would've upped the 'sexy' factor! One strange thing I must add is that on my t-shirt the scent shifted from the top notes to a candied hazelnut scent...good but weird! Overall, this is a good, cheap fragrance! It lasts about 6 plus hours and is a pretty interesting ride throughout and the base is by far the best part! I give it a good 7 out of 10!
If you are looking for a great bargain and yet a very nice scent this is for you. I would def. give it to my husband, my dad, cousin or friends. Very casual and very nice!
The notes are a lot more promising than the final product is. It could be a lot better. Still, It is what it is. I do like the fragrance. It is pleasantly sweet,not too sweet,easy to wear casually and enjoyable whenever. Plus the price is right for a young man on a budget.
Benetton BLU, marketed to men, features a strong cedar note and also a fair amount of basil. Although the composition is rather masculine, it is not impossible for women to wear, provided that they like woody aromatics. I find BLU rather refreshing on a hot day, and although it is not subtle, it is clean and clear, rather than muddled and toxic as so many men's colognes in this price range seem to me to be. BLU seems entirely respectable, and I'll use the bottle I acquired purely out of curiosity now and then. It is definitely wearable, and even rather endearing in a somewhat simpleminded way. Something like a friendly dog, I'd say. But at least it’s a clean one!
Overall, I find these Benetton fragrances somewhat flat, like an image whose various layers have all been collapsed, leaving a straightforward representation of a simple object not really open to a huge amount of interpretation. There is no cat in this picture...
It smells like armani code
