this could easily be a unisex fragrance... It is not feminine at all and somehow reminds me of something a man should wear, i get clean cotton smells nice and all but not something i would ever purchase.

I've always wondered what this smelled like? Everyone is always saying how wonderful it is. So I stopped at Walgreens to pick up some deodorant and there it was a bottle sample. I asked the lady behind the register if I could sample it. I was thinking this was gonna be awesome. I really don't know what the big deal is? Smells like lemon. Whoopee?!!

I used to have I love Love and Funny, I can see why people find similar but they are not...
I love Love is way much sweeter, and Funny doesn't have the woody notes that LB has.

Light blue is way more grown up comparing with other two scents and more lonlasting. I like wearing it during winter too, when I want something light to calm me...
It can make my day!
Unfortunately too popular and too expensive :(

Smells like teen spirit :)) However, I could not wear it anymore... feel it somehow synthetic, without a development on my skin.

Was expecting a light, summery, crisp citrus scent -- got a sort of lemon furniture polish fragrance, with a hit of bitter woody astringent, instead. I can't find anything feminine about this fragrance at all ... for that matter, I wouldn't recommend it for men either! Just not an attractive fragrance.

It smelled really nice in the bottle but on my skin ... not so much. I might as well have cut a real lemon in half and rubbed it on my skin. I would definitely get the same effect. Not to mention the expensive price!!

It makes you feel good, in peace. The lemon is the first note, and there's also something sweet. It brings me back to my childhood. Great for summer, but in winter it could make a good job if want something that warms your days.
I used it for a couple of years, it was my first love but now everybody have it... I changed when i found something synthetic in it.

i'd like to buy it in summer. One thing i worry about is that plenty of people like and have it. I think LB is a very fresh and citrusy scent. to me it's kind of unisex smell.

This smells like pink lemonade. Later I get a little apple, florals, and maybe some wood with it.
It's very strong and VERY sweet on me but gives an impression of being light and clear. Lasts a few hours tops. Nice enough scent. People seem to love this, but it's not for me.

I am amazed by how many people think this is similar to Moschino Cheap and Chic. 282 people! The numbers of reviews must also be a record. Oh!
2002 my sister and I were in Alcudia and went to a perfumeshop the very last evening. That was the first time I smelled Light Blue and I was taken by its charm and beauty. The sad thing is that you could smell it on every people around you and that was the reason that my interest faded away. It is a fruity delight, extremely cozy, and perfect for every occasion BUT, too common.

Fresh and inoffensive, this is a great everyday perfume. I love the way it smells in the bottle, but unfortunately, the citrus notes soured on me. I typically prefer warmer orientals, but thought this would be a great summery scent for me. After all, everyone has it, so why wouldn't I love it as well?

The fresh citrus just didn't mingle with my body chemistry well. This is a great perfume for many, but beware that the acrid lemony notes might not be for everyone. The scent does not last long and practically disappeared after a few hours. All I was left with was a slightly more sour odor at the end of the day.

I hate this. If you like sweet fruity and flowery perfumes, i wouldnt go for this.
I got it when I was 17 as a birthdaygift, and it smelled horrible to me. I tried to give it to my sister, friends, mom, familymembers, classmates, and everyone said NO WAY after smelling this. I had to throw the expensive bottle away, I simply couldn't get rid of it....

I have a little story with this perfume. At first my dad told me about it and when I smelled it, I didn't pay much attention to it. Months later I bought it after seeing some reviews, and well wanted to try it..

It has a very fresh clean smell, perfect for everyday, but the surprising part is, how much men love it. The first day I wore it, I was told over and over again of how good I smelled. My boyfriend always comments when I wear this perfume, and it lasts all day. I just love it. <3

definitely worth the money, I wish I had a bigger bottle :)

Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue is the perfect scent for the summer. It smells so clean and fresh with a hint of wootsy and citrus notes. However, I totally have to agree with a few of these reviews it seems like everyone and their mother has this fragrance which for me thats a bomber! :-( Another thing is that its super light and doesnt lasts all day, atleast not on me. But I will still recommend for everyone to give a try.

My favourite perfume in the world! Funny thing is when i was 16 i smelt it in a perfume shop at the airport and i hated it! Either it was a very old bottle or my tastes in perfume just changed, but i adore it now! It has the freshest, cleanest smell ever. I find this has been copied alot, and i can only wear light blue not any of the other brands that have tried to copy it, because they never smell very nice to me. I love love just smells too "spicy"

My favourite part is not the first spray when it is still very lemony, but when you've had it on for a while and it jsut smells...clean, like fresh clothes or something. It makes me happy everytime i smell it reminds me strongly of happy summer day. I think i will always come back to this perfume.

Also i hear people saying "everyone wears this" maybe it's more popular in the usa, i'm from the uk and it's a rare occasion when i smell this on someone, love when i do though.

The fragrance can be very annoying but it's also uplifting. I wear it only from time to time, because it can make you feel annoyed of the strong one note going on and on (lemon, apple, cedar). It's fresh and clean and has a pleasant wood note. Light Blue is also similar to Moschino's I Love Love - I Love Love has different citruses. I see similarity to L'Imperatrice in the meaning of uplifting mood and going on high note all the time. Definitely not my favourite but who doesn't know it yet (are there any?), may try.

Absolutely beautiful. Have you fallen out of love with this scent? Then give it a break! One day you will come back to it as I did, and fell in love again!! If you loved it once then you can again! Recommended to all, I dont know a single person who doesnt like this one :o)

Like many relationships, this has run its course. It is an uplifting quasi-citrus people-pleasing scent. But smelling it too often, on too many people, in too many places, has taken away the magic. Same old, same old.

This is a lovely scent. The feminine version smells almost like the male version, the only difference is a distinct sweet note. It is fresh, long lasting and very nice. I do not smell it on everyone and I asked my SA if she sells a lot of it and she said the sales of it are mediocre and she has noticed a decrease over the years. None the less, this is a staple piece. Perfect for summer or days when you want to feel summerish!

Perhaps one of the most copied fragrances. D&G Light Blue, I believe, is among the most popular citrus woody fragrances. It remains essential to every perfume collector's wardrobe or if not, familiar to everyone who cares about perfume. If you do not own it, you know how it smells like. Light Blue is one of those fresh fragrances that have good lasting power, fresh without being too sour, and feminine without being too girly. Light blue is easy to like, almost like a white T-shirt. Overly popular, very distinctive, an indispensable staple. Wear it anytime you cannot think of what fragrance to wear. Pleasant and failsafe, like a crisp shirt freshly laundered in lemon tinged detergent--a perfect "pick me up" fragrance on warm days.

I liked smellDanielles' review and think that it sums up this perfume perfectly.
"My all time favorite. Fresh and bright. Like freshly washed linen on a clothesline in the summer. It makes me feel clean and I get many compliments when I wear it."

:]
Strange that it does not have a lasting power on many people. It is one of the most long lasting for me. Great perfume.

This scent is wonderful citrusy and piney. I love the woodsy pine scent that it has! Such a great perfume for really any time of the year. I usually wear it for daytime. IT is not overpowering and has pretty good lasting power, I get lots of compliments from both men and women with this scent. IT really could be a unisex scent. They also have the men's version of light blue.

I dont understand the hype, this parfum is OK. The scent is not warm or sexy. But a cold one.. just like the add depicts. I think men could wear this also.Don't like the citrus that is in it. What kind of women want to smell sexy like a citrus :p

I used it a lot. But just never seem to really love it. This cant match up to the sophisticated parfume's of Dior or Chanel. I wouldn't splurge on this there are better parfumes on the market.

The bottle needs a serious revamp! Shame on you D&G

The first 5 minutes you'll smell lemon, pinsol?
I eagerly wanted to wash it off but waited, oh my gosh
Am i glad i waited!!! The warm musk scent you get
Towards the next minutes is unbelievable. Very nice and sultry
And still light. Nothing overpowering.

Even though it is a summery citrus scent, i love this
Best during winter. Makes me feel cozy and warm.

Huh. Well, I don't really have alot to say about this one, but plenty of other people do, so it's probably all covered....
This is very popular, and I guess I can see how it suits a ggod deal of people easily. To me this is fine. It's inoffensive and easy. Not beautiful to me, but not unpleasant either. Just meh. Maybe that's just my chemistry. But if it works really well,for you, nice :) It's all about personal taste.

I bought this after I smelled it on my daughter. Mistake. I believe it got confused with my chemistry. It didn't carry the 'earthy' notes which I like but more a 'floral' scent which made me want to wash off after a while.

Now I knowthat some perfumes are similar with this, but still "Every Perfumes" had its own taste, then chemistry, climate, weather...their reaction diffrently of each other.

I have always liked this one for work. Clean, not cloying, and soft notes that compliment each other well. not so strong that it is likely to give anyone headaches. It will not offend anyone. Having said that it is a bit dull as nothing stands out about it noticeably. It's lovely and fresh but a bit boring.

I bought this about a year ago after smelling it on a co-worker (that sounds a bit odd lol). It was really nice on her and thought it would be a good choice. The first week of wearing it was ok, it didn't smell quite as good on me as it did one my co-worker but not bad. Soon I started to notice the acidity turning against me, the scent started to smell faintly like urine on me. Turns out I'm one of those people who can't wear scents like this. Overall it didn't work for me but I have smelt it since on other people in passing and it's non-offensive and pleasant, but nothing special. If you want something lighter and cheaper (in price) try 'I Love Love' by Moschino.

I am so over this perfume. The smell of it actually makes me angry!! lol I smell it all the time on other people and t makes me dislike them immediately.

Ah the power of smell, is all I can say.

I'm not saying that this is a bad perfume, I actaully liked it when it first came out. It's just that it's too invasive, and if you're tired of smelling it...the fact thatt it's thick and far-reaching will make you end up HATING it.

Not to mention the musk in it is wayto close to that "warm humans" smell that you get in large crowds or off people who are fotunate enough to have clean smelling sweat, which just adds to the intrusive quality of the perfume. I find it to be quite rude! lol

This fragrance can be a fantastic palate cleanser if you tend to favor moody chypres, dramatic orientals and exuberant florals. Using Light Blue as a change of pace is like throwing open your windows on the first warm spring day after a long winter.

Smells too masculine to me, but not sexy at all. LB is pungent and not in a pleasant way. Yves Rocher makes a LB dupe called Naturelle, the top notes are slightly more green and fruity, but the base notes smell just like LB. That one is a lot more bearable to me than LB.

Suburban summer personified. I don't picture Italy here at all. It's clean, fresh, watery, softly sweet, a bit tangy. A bit green...I've lived in a big New England college city for the last two years for school. In Winter, this city and the areas surrounding it, are known to get "Nor'easters", which cause havoc and bring tons of snow, traffic, power outages, bills...you name it, it happens. In result, many of the people around here, even those who have lived their entire lives here, can become depressive, bitter souls.

Anyway, when the warmer season begins to creep up and Summer begins, hoo ha!, happiness is reborn. As if they never had it so good. They start going to the beach in April, just because it can be 60 maybe 70 degrees outside. Kids pop out the brightest bikinis, news stations are seeping with joy, people can get upset if it rains too much in the Spring, and so forth. They "praise" the Sun. And yet in the midst of this turmoil, I can't help but find it endearing. I've spent my childhood in the Caribbean, "latin America" (basically Mexico and down), and Africa. Some Europe. No, I'm not privileged,far from it, just that my family splurged on plane tickets instead of cars and a mortgage. What has been normal to me, warm, happy, fresh weather, is not the usual around here. These people love Summer far more than I do and ever will. My favorite season is Fall.

This then is tans, lemonade, pool parties, Summer vacations, vanilla ice cream, summer fling, and summer camp. Swimming in a lake in the middle of the woods.The Beach Boys. Summer rain after high 90s weather. Refreshing. Liberating, like how free and safe it was when we were children. It is comfortable.It smells good. I guess this is why it's so popular. I normally don't like smelling like everyone, thus why I've only worn this once or twice from a small sample (don't knock it until you try it). However, I'll make an exception on this one. Yes, it can be annoying when everyone smells the same. But like I've said, most people have a deep desire to feel normal, accepted. Some of us, are naturally comfortable being like everyone else. It is a goal some people aspire to. Normality is overrated, but it has its uses. People immediately trust you. You have something in common. People like things to be in order, linear, routine. Rebels get shot and become legends. Your average person stays comfortable and lives.

I rather be a rebel still.

Not sure why, but I really hate this one. It has the kind of synthetic-y floral scent that I sometimes like, but in this case I can't stand it. It could be because a few of the women I work with wear loads of it, and we are a huggy bunch so I end up wearing it, too. And it is strong. And it overpowers my own perfume. And it lasts and lasts and LASTS. And I have to shower to get every molecule of it off of me or else it seems to multiply and I'm stuck with it all night. Yuck.

A breathtaking perfume which has the ability to change ones mood and lighten up a day, anon..

0-5 mins - Wowie, now this is it. Chilled, casual, but big enough to be out there,... complex citrus, unisex, not just relaxed but optimisitic for the future and brighter times ahead. Projection 2-4 foot around. All day wear, universal, London, Toyko etc... it doesn't matter who, where, what, when you are, this is something all can enjoy and truly special and timeless.

5 mins - 5 hours - Projection 2 foot around, captivates all around, impossible to not be amazed by how good this is, like the dream beach holiday, like the dream that you can aspire to.

5-10 hours. Less projection. Lives 2 days on clothes however, if you like me, cannot let this go.

Absolutely perfect scent, perfect projection and longevity, what more could one ask for?

I bought this recently after hearing positive comments about it, and it ended up smelling way better than I had thought. But then again, it probably is a summer scent, as I prefer more sensual scents for fall and winter. If you want something that screams "Fresh and Clean", than this is the right perfume for you. I'd say that this is more wearable than DKNY's Be Delicious. I just wished that it had better lasting power,as it lasts for only about 6 hours on my skin.
Overall, i like this fragrance and would recommend it to my friends :)

i used to love this scent... actually as far as i can tell, this was my very first "signature-perfume", and i used to wear it day and night when i was 12-14 years old. but after finishing the 2nd bottle and buying myself the 3rd, i for some reason suddenly couldnt stand the smell of it anymore! i got sick everytime i sniffed it, so since then, i still have a big 50ml bottle standing all alone in the shelf.
it is very fresh and citrusy... i get what people mean by saying it smells like detergent, toiletcleaner blabla... but its actually just very very fresh and citrusy, but still strong and making a statement.. and i always have the impression that the scent itself is just like the packaging of the bottle, blue and velvety-soft... and VERY unique! and if you find it not very "extraordinary","interesting", or "complex" it still doesnt beat the fact, that it is a uniqe scent, and there is NO perfume, which smells like it.... so i know exactly when one is wearing light blue, as i pass by. i just cant smell it anymore...

It smelled nothing like the fresh yet musky scent I had smelled, and more like lemons and rubbing alcohol. I thought perhaps it was my body chemistry or maybe a bad batch.
I decided to give it a try again when the same friend was still wearing the light blue and I tried it. It smelled amazing.
I ordered a small bottle from e-bay & LOVED it again.
I decided to order the full size from Macy's- received it last week & once again, LEMONS.
The difference in the 2 bottles I own- the fresh musky scent is Made in Italy. The lemon pledge, Made In Germany. I have no doubt both bottles are authentic, but either something is lost in translation in Germany, or inferior ingredients are used.
This scent is fabulous when it's done right.
For some reason the 2 bottles I have had from Germany were just not right.

I've had 3 bottles of this perfume already and didn't get tired of it and don't think it will happen soon.
What I think of it is that this is the most popular perfume for young women, for summer and within the citrusy scent area.
I love it for it inspires me cleanliness, freedom and a sexy lazyness. It's like I only need this to feel confortable when wearing really high heels and a short wavy dress on a tipical summer day.
The bad thing about it is that more and more women smell the same wearing it and the nose loses connection with the heart of this perfume.
Anyway, since it continues to be one of my top 5, I trully agree it's great, even after being familiar with it for 4 years now.

I have been wanting to try this for so long, after hearing so many good reviews, and the enduring popularity of it. Finally, I got a sample of it! However, I am somewhat disappointed since it smells very similar to both Secret Wish by Anna Sui, and Naturelle by Yves Rocher. I know Light Blue came out first, but I have been loyal to Secret Wish for so long, I think I will stick with it.

I love using Light Blue ... is so "up", I feel like I'm walking in one of those old small Italian village in the mountains bordering the Mediterranean, on a sunny day ... walking along a stone trail with the smell of the cedars, the fresh wind and warm smell that comes from inside the houses ... apple pies and cider baked by italian grandmas ...

Es un aroma muy cítrico, brillante y con personalidad. Realmente me transporta a una playa mediterránea con el mar salpicado por los reflejos dorados del sol. Da sensación de energía y optimismo. Me parece una buena alternativa para mi perfume habitual de verano. Para ser un EdT dura mucho sobre mi piel. Hay que usarlo con moderación, ya que si se pone perfume en exceso se hace intrusivo.

It is a citrus aroma, bright and personality. I really transported to a Mediterranean beach with the sea dotted with golden reflections of the sun. Da feeling of energy and optimism. I think a good alternative to my usual summer perfume. To be a EdT last long on my skin. You have to use it sparingly, because if you put too much perfume is intrusive.

I had it many years ago, when I used to adore it. Back in that time, I was only having 3-4 perfumes, and this one was my summer time favorites. It was fashionable, sexy, young, and everybody loved it. Regardless, I ended up having it again due to good memories related to it; maybe my nose has changed, but I find it lemony, with tons of musk and cedar, and not much else; I cannot smell any flowers. I love the sour opening, but after that it's just Aqua di Gioia minus sugar and mint. Still beautiful for summer time, but I cannot find the "wow" in it, as I used to when I was younger. Silage and lasting power are quite good for an edt.
One more note: this is one of most faked scents out there... I suggest if you like it, spend the money to get it from a reputable store, unless you want to get a nasty smelling, toilet freshener.

Slightly sweet, soft but vibrant, fresh lemon with one of my favourite notes, cedar, ever present...really delectable, a perfect summer scent and I understand why it's loved by so many.

A big minus though - it lasts only about an hour on my skin if that, and sillage is nearly non-existent after the first 10 minutes. I've raced through my little 25ml bottle in the last month as I've used it more like a body spray. I'll have to throw away the empty bottle because if I keep sniffing it I know I'll want more! And it's quite expensive for a body spray. But that's just my skin maybe.

A very, very fresh, sparkling and clean fragrance. Like a splash of cold water or a deep breath of fresh air. I notice the lemon and cedar the most. It's great on hot summer days, when you don't want something too overpowering. This is a magical fragrance - not too sweet, not too woody. And not spicy (at all!!!). When i first smelled it, it was really in-your-face.. But soon i got used to it and loved it! I love D&G perfumes in general: it's like they were working at each note for a long time, thinking of the ideal combination with it, making the aroma not too overpowering or boring. Each fragrance is original and unforgettable...

There is one BIG minus about the fragrance: it doesn't last on me at all.. :( I spray it on and in three minutes i already can't feel it. But the scent itself is lovely. 9.5 out of 10.

Light Blue is a masterpiece of proportion: pure, clean, with a refreshing taste of apple, and just enough lemon to keep it bright and awake. It is far superior to most other aquatics that I have tried, which suffer from an excess of citrus, usually making them a bit cloying and antiseptic.

No such problem with Light Blue. If you want a sparkling daytime perfume, this is the one for you, man or woman.

Like most aquatics, it can be too strong if worn to excess. A little goes a long way. It's not the kind of scent you want to broadcast to the world. It's a modest scent, one you should wear to subtly enhance your cleanliness and clear presence of mind.

I don't think it is "sexy" as advertised. There is nothing dark or sensual about it. It could however, evoke the brightness of a sunlit beach.

The bottle is a bit boring. Sure, this perfume is not sensual, but it's not utilitarian either. It's full of sparkling beauty, and could use a more creatively designed bottle to enhance that image.

This is a decent fresh fragrance, but not the best to my nose. For some reason I am inexplicably reminded of Lanvin's Eclat d'Arpege, without the berry notes. The opening is a lot of lemon and apple and then the bamboo becomes distinct. It remains fairly linear until the end when the musk comes through. This does kind of remind me of an air freshener. I expected more.

Sun in a bottle! Salty limes, warm ocean spray, sugar rimmed vodka tonic. It's clean and slightly crisp yet soft and still subtle. Beachy but not tropical. Not the type of scent I tend to gravitate towards ( earthy, smokey,honey, incense etc) but I really love this one. Not overly feminine but not quite unisex. My hubby loves this one on me!

Crisp apple and zesty lemon: A happy, optimistic sort of scent. Puts me in mind of a breezy, clear day spent picnicking near an orchard. Refreshingly sweet, it manages to duck the cloying trap that so many floral fruity perfumes fall into. Simply delicious for summer - you might be able to pull it off in colder weather as well, but it has a light tough that might quickly disappear.

I have tried rose the one and 3 Le Impertrice they are both nice but my favourite by a country mile is light blue I love the crispness of the granny smith apples melding with the fresh blubells I find it an uplifting fruity floral which is absolutely intoxicatingly addictive and my definite favourite for spring and summer especially I have had five bottles of it and many compliments when I wear it. It blends with my body chemistry just purrrrrfectly ! ! ! ! ! ! I just love it. It's not cheap but to me it is worth every cent it is my favourite for sure.

Clean, cool and fresh citrus scent with a prominent cedar note that in my opinion makes this fragrance rather masculine or at least unisex. It reminds me a lot of the colognes of the past (like 4711).

There's nothing mysterious to this scent. It's an easy going, uncomplicated fragrance - just zesty citrus and aromatic cedar, with a small hint of floral sweetness. It doesn't change character from the minute it's sprayed till it fades away - what you spray is what you get.

This scent is especially suitable for a hot summer day, where the refreshing element is more important than the complexity and uniqueness of the scent.

In 3 words: FRESH - MASCULINE - LINEAR

Such a clean, fresh lime, green apple musky scent! I really like the mixture of amber, musk and citruses Dolce & Gabbana brought with this fragrance. But I really agree with some reviews here, it seems there's nothing else for people to wear so, they're all wearing light blue. I even smelled it on my boss. Ten years ago I had the chance to wear this "new" one!

I just love this fragrance so much. In my opinion it's perfection from start to finish. The citrus top note is fresh but not overly sour, and a few spritzes of this on clothes ensures that the lemony scent lasts even as the perfume evolves on skin.

I started wearing this fragrance back in 2001 when it first came out, before it really became popular. The fact that so many people do wear it is testament to its quality. This is my favorite D&G perfume.

The women's is much better than the men's version which is find too bitter. The women's is 10/10 for me and gets lots of compliments from people.

It's great to smell it in a distance when there's a wind . So I think it would be sexy if someone pass by catch a scent of this on me.
However, if you smell directly from the place you apply it, it's too sour and irritating.
Still, i like wearing this in casual because it's fresh and clean.

Light Blue . . . hmmm. Wonder what kind of fragrance this could be . . .

In all honesty, it's not that bad. Bright citrus notes with a touch of sweetness, darkened by cedar. Simple, pleasant, inoffensive, generic. The fragrance is unisex (the masculine version is redundant) and nice for a casual summer day. There's nothing grandiloquent or exaggerated in the composition, which is to its detriment; Light Blue could use a little pizzaz. As it stands, it's one of many uninteresting and easy-to-wear summer scents. I'd opt for Eau de Grey Flannel if I wanted this kind of citrus/cedar arrangement, but any one of your Cool Waters or Acqua di Gios would do as well.

I purchased Light Blue once in 2002 and again in 2003, I thought it was a unisex scent. Much to my dismay it was for women, so my pride forced me to stop wearing it. I think I'll pick it up again and layer it this time. Women loved it on me then and I'm pretty sure my luck will be the same now.

I don't think this is a stripper scent, although I really don't frequent strip clubs like that. The strippers I encountered always wore some form of Bath & Body Works.

All in all, I think it's a nice scent. If a scent could catch the feeling of a warm saturday afternoon, this would be it.

I was looking forward to this scent as it smelled lovely and fresh in the bottle. Good thing I tried it out first! On me, unfortunately, it smells like a toilet that has not been cleaned in years & growing mold... it also has incredible staying power. I did not know what to do to make it go away. But I thought, maybe beginner's luck. I tried again 4 more times with the same result...haha you can say I was determined! But definitely, definitely not for me! It smells so awful on my skin!

* Office Safety - 4/10 (in moderation)
* "Headache" Factor - 7/10

This one opens like a fresh breeze that cools you off on a hot day. It's lovely and fresh.

BUT... once the cedar takes over, it become unwearable for me. I like scents that evolve, but in this case, I wish it was linear and stayed the way it is on opening instead of the cedar taking over in the middle.

I think this could be just fine for office wear IF the wearer is sparing with it. A co-worker wears too much of it at work and it is overwhelming.

Fellas, my good friend Anup's review says it best: Light Blue works perfectly as a masculine. There's really nothing feminine about it and it's one of the best fresh fragrances money can buy.

And, Light Blue is successful for a reason. It's appealing, pleasant, intelligently marketed, long-lasting, and modern. Light Blue is the women's answer to Acqua di Gio for men: light and fresh, the perfect anti perfume, along with L'Eau d'Issey.

Still, there are better citrus fragrances out there (Eau de Guerlain and Orange Sanguine come to mind in terms of unisex), and just about EVERYONE seems to wear Light Blue. Since it has first been released, the world has reeked of it more and more.

Regardless, I like the stuff and it can be found for a good price at good retailers. Guys, I recommend you skip the banal men's version and just go for this one. Women will still compliment you.

Nice summer fragrance, although it's nothing special. I did find the lasting power to be impressive though, at least on me anyway. When I run out, I won't repurchase because it is just too common and doesn't have a "wow" factor to keep me coming back. I know quite a few reviewers have said they think it smells masculine, and it does, but not in a bad way. It's very fresh and clean smelling and very ordinary too; it is what I would consider a "safe" scent. If you've never tried it and you like the fresh-citrusy smelling frags, then give it a whirl, but if you're looking for something to knock your socks off, you might want to try something else.

There's no denying this scent is extremely popular....so yes, this means that many people wear it. I do prefer wearing scents that are not so widely worn. However, if I like a fragrance enough, I don't let that deter me....I will wear it anyway. Best to choose perfumes based on what you like, regardless of what others think....that's my opinion anyway.

Having said that, I don't actually smell this on others that often. I love this scent for what it is - a simple, fresh, light fragrance that wears beautifully on my skin in warm weather.

What I get from it is fresh/tart lemon, wispy light florals, and some woodiness from the crisp bamboo and warm cedar. It wears fairly close to the skin but has decent staying power for me. It reminds me of summer, fresh air, sunshine, and vacations. This is not a loud, statement-making fragrance. It's not sweet or strong, just very crisp and refreshing. While I do love my statement-making fragrances, I also love Light Blue for those days when I want a wear-it-for-myself, light, clean scent that makes me think of summertime.

With Light Blue you never have to worry about the scent becoming overpowering, which I think is what makes it an ideal go-to summer scent for so many people.

Light blue is a very fresh fragrance. Not dewy or sweet, but not arid either. A windy clifftop drenched in sunshine, small wild flowers thrashing back and forth surrender their subtle scents to the breeze. Miles of blue sky overhead, fresh with ozone, waves crashing on the cliff face many metres below.

I visualise a woman wearing this, she is beautiful, sophisticated, streetwise, calm and confident. She lives amongst the bright neon lights, the glitz and glamour of the city nightlife. She is at home here. She does not need to attract attention - the lights shimmer all around her and she does not notice them, they are her domain and she shines with them. She has attention without effort, she is loved and admired. She wears a scent for herself and Light Blue brings a blast of fresh air and clear blue sky into her dark but dazzling city life. She secretly longs to escape and walk those breezy clifftops.

Great fresh fragrance, uplifting, quite unchanging and lasts well, a little sillage, but not too much.

A little rant for you before i review this. Did there SERIOUSLY need to be a D&G light blue pour homme?!!
NO, this is perfectly unisex. If i smelled this without knowing what it was i would most likely be inclined to think that is WAS a mens fragrance in the first place.

I'm done ranting, now i can begin reviewing this best seller by one of my favorite noses, Olivier Cresp!

The top:

An apple resembling the apple note found in DK's be delicious men will be the first thing that you pick up on, which is great because i simply LOVE a well done apple!
To be an apple that is executed well it has to capture the bitter skin, and the savory/mealy/sugared meat, which this does without a doubt.
The lemon is also present providing an even more sun soaked bitter/airy tendency!

The heart:

The middle of this fragrance features both jasmine and rose, but i do not detect them by themselves.
I get a feeling that these notes are implied within some patented aroma-chemicals in the base, you'll know what i mean when i explain it in the basenotes :) The note in the middle of that fragrance that DOES stand out to me though would have to be the bamboo.
I've had bamboo growing outside my apartment for the past three summers and i am very familiar with it's dirty green whiff.

The base:

I detect a light resinous amber that's brown suger-esque motives are partially thwarted by the hearty, masculine ceder :).
Now onto what i was getting at earlier. The base of this smells IDENTICAL to cool wet soil.
It's this olfactory experience that i believe draws so many women (and men alike) to this best seller.

I approve!

Longevity: 10
Sillage: 10++

I love it. Clean and fresh without smelling like a household product, and it lasts for such a long time. I sprayed my wrist before bed last night and I could still smell it quite clearly this morning, almost 9 hours later. The dry down comes quite quickly on my skin, leaving my with a more powdery soft kind of clean, like a freshly bathed child. Cute. Not sexy in anyway to my nose, so it does seem an odd choice for strippers? I have had many compliments when wearing this, mostly from other women. I've finished up my bottle and now that summer is gone here I won't repurchase yet, but its a definite re-buy for next spring and summer. Sensational!

If you want to smell like everyone else (literally EVERYONE else) then go ahead, get Light Blue. I personally find it way too overrated. I think it's a very basic, unoriginal, cheap-smelling scent.

I once had a guy friend who said he'd never date a girl that wore Light Blue, because it's what all the strippers wear and he didn't want a girlfriend that smells like a stripper. In fact, I've had several guys tell me that... I think that's a bit harsh, but I do agree with them that it smells very cheap.

It IS the best summer fragrance! I caught a whiff of it while standing in line in the NC airport. I followed the fragrance to a woman about 5 people ahead of me, and begged to know what she was wearing. It does open with a citrus lime-grapefruit, yet has a rose heart and patchouli dry-down to me. It stays very well- love it!

It's amazing - I think this is a universally appealing scent. I know someone whose signature scent was Clinique's Aromatic Elixir (not for the faint of heart... potent, heavy stuff that I can't stand), and she switched to D&G Light Blue. Even though the perfumes are so different, after one spritz of Light Blue you don't wanna go back. Feminine, refreshing, citrusy and cool. It lasts all day on most people. The only reason I stopped wearing it was because it got so popular, I smelt it EVERYWHERE!

Light Blue is a true classic and I just love this scent. It is sparkling and light, bursts open like opening a bottle of champage, the opening fizzy citrus notes blending perfectly with crisp sour green apples and the cedar. I cant smell any rose notes though. On a hot day this is the perfect fragrance to use; it is never over the top but it is not a sweet perfume as it has a slightly sharp edge which mellows down. Not too much citrus to imagine the wearer has been doused with lemon juice LOL as the cedar/mossy base notes balance the lighter notes. The name is misleading as nothing "blue" springs to mind. "Citrus Moss" as an alternative name probably better describes the scent but it does not sound modern or appealing and would not improve the perfume sales!! It is a perfume for a young modern woman, it doesnt disappoint, the drydown is great (the apple note lingered nicely) and lasts for a long time. Enjoy!

Much has been said, and more eloquently that I could, about the notes of Light Blue, so there's really not much I can add there.

I first smelled Light Blue years ago when it first came out and I hated it. This was when I was a teenager and I really didn't know much about fragrance. Two months ago, I was in an airport and spritzed on Light Blue just to give it another chance.
I fell in summer love.

I say summer love because I'm not deeply, madly in love with Light Blue. It's not my favorite, forever fragrance, nor the one that makes me feel sexy and glamorous. But nothing beats Light Blue in the summer heat. It's like the Gin & Tonic of perfumes. Nothing extraordinary, but so refreshing and delightful. To me, I smell primarily the citrus and apple top notes; jasmine, musk, and cedar are undetectable to me.

Only downside is that the sillage is terrible. Light Blue lasts about 2 hours on me, TOPS, and that is sprayed directly on both wrists. This seems to be a common issue.

When I first smelled this a few weeks ago (yes it has taken me that long) first of all I jus thought it was a lemon overdose.......

However ;)... after the first few minutes, it started developing a uniqueness I didn't expect, for some reason I got some bitter almond note, whatever it was it was lovely, clean and fresh. Perfect for summer. I don't care of alot of people have it, I don't recognise it on anyone I know so whatever :-) it's lovely! And obviously a reason for its popularity.

So I'm using this as a bribe to myself - stop smoking for a week (think the worst of the cravings should be over by then) and I can treat myself to this beauty. :-) and it seems to be working! Can't stop thinking about how much ~I want this, definitely more than a cig....


***update*** Wow, definitely falling in love with this more and more, it's SO uplifting, and so far have had compliments as soon as someone smells it on me, rather than me asking them! People seem to love this one, which is greAT imo ;)

So I was dying to smell this since apparently everyone has it. I smelt it today and I was extremely disappointed! Everyone raves about it, saying it's so beautiful & fresh, yet when I smelt it, it smelled like ARABICA BEANS. And not in a good way.. It smelt like coffee & dirt. It was so weird because everyone always says it's light, fresh, floral, etc. I don't understand why anyone would like this fragrance...

This is a classic for a reason: it's very refreshing. On my skin it's a citrus and green apple explosion in the opening and woody in the drydown. This is very light and it leaves an uber subtle cedar drydown on me. Sillage and longevity are unfortunately very bad on me. It is still one of my favorites though!

This is that kind of scent that never offends anybody´s nose. It´s really soft, delicate and not cloying at all. Lime and cedar make a fresh and pleasant composition, while rose and jasmine are very well blended and not too noticeable, just right. As it dries down, musk and amber appear without breaking the fresh chain, which lasts quite long. Overall this is a perfect choice for summer, yet suitable for any season. A very charming one.

ok it is nice and I repurchased it(one of my infamous 20 ml bottles hehe) and I think it is enough. It was my signature when I was 13,and a sniff from the bottle zaps me back to my tween years:D I don't use it very often now, and the 20 ml bottle will be all for it,enough flashbacks for me! I don't think it would bother anyone, a nice fresh vercy citric scent that doesn't say too much.

The Light Blue used to be my favorite perfume. I still like it but not as much as I used to. I bought my first bottle when it just came out, used up about 6-7 full bottles of it and still kind of like it. It's very citrusy at first when you just sprits it on, after it dries down to a nice soft musky scent on me. I love it.

I really love D&G Light Blue, I remember a friend of mine was wearing it, and I asked her what it was cause it smelled so good :) I never had a full bottle of it, but I've tested it many times, enough to write a review at least :) When I first spray it, it smells just like lemonade, a very fresh lemon scent. After the dry down the base notes settle in and the powerful lemon scent softens. (I tend to like cedar notes and that is just what I smell at the dry down.) The lasting power is about 4-5 hours on my skin, so not that long however keep in my mind it is an EDT. I would say a great choice for spring & summer!

I have to agree with "airwatersun" on her lovely review. This is no girly scent.
I get a distinct dry cedar note from it. In fact, it's even drier and better in cooler weather.

The great staying power says a lot for the quality. I can still detect it a day after using it, in moderate warmth and with sparing use.

It's also not as commonly used as it was a while ago, at least not where we stay. Definitely not enough to spoil my fun with it.

D&G Light Blue is indeed, a pleasant fragrance.To me, it seems more mature that other Floral Fruity scents which in my view is a very big plus (as I'm not a big lover of this group).Just for the purpose of this review I sprayed some on wrist and all I can feel right now is a strong and fresh lemon scent.As the top notes fade away,I can definetly feel how the rose and the jasmine blend together, the lemon note disappearing almost completely.

The fragrance lasts A LOT, almost the entire day.If you pair it with with the body lotion you can be sure you'll feel it on your skin until you'll take your shower at night.

Overall, if you want a nice floral fruity fragrance, I see no reason why not to recommend it,especially for its staying power.But if you're a lover of mostly oriental/floral fragrance, you'll probably get bored of this fragrance pretty soom.After 2 weeks of having it, I ended up giving mine away.

to everyone who thinks that it is ''annoying'' to find this perfume ''everywhere''..
has it ever occured to you that there is a reason for this being so popular?
this perfume is just amazing.
thats the reason.

i dont know about newest versions, i have the old one. for me, it has always been about deep dry wood balanced with just the right amount of lemony fresh bitterness.
thats it.
no bamboo, no rose or jasmine, surely no apple, and who in fact knows how bellflower smells?
i like things simple.
when it dries, you can find lots and lots of natural cedar. nothing artificial. like you opened a door of an old wooden armoire and found clean sheets washed in lemon boil (for whitening)
this can easily go as unisex in my opinion. there is nothing girly about it.

Light Blue.... hmm yes indeed it's light, clear, nice and I believe a little soapy.

Prominent on my skin: Cedar , Lemon, Apple, Jasmine with a trace of Roses and Ambergris.

Sniffing from the bottle I sense: Apple, Lemon and Jasmine.


This fragrance is over popular but even being too popular, something still makes me like it. Maybe my good memories about this perfume. The summer feeling that it gives me every time I apply it, no matter what season is outside.

I like the fresh, calm, simple and clean Light Blue. It's a summery, comforting fragrance.

Good sillage but medium lasting power.

What a unique and perfect summer fragrance it was - in the past!! When I first smelled it in 2002 I was in love! I knew immediately: I have to have it! This was my summer scent! The perfect one! Smells like the lemon sorbet I´ve always eaten in Italy. Really, it brings back so many memories I have of Italy. This scent has only one disadvantage: It´s too popular, every second woman wears it in summer and that´s what I can´t stand. As lovely and fresh this fragrance is and as much as I wanna wear it again, I avoid to buy it cause it doesn´t have anything individual anymore.

At the fragrance counter, I passed the bottle by many times because it just looked boring. But one hot day on my lunch hour I gave it a sniff and I felt like it was an instant vacation. Now, I wear it every summer or on really cold days to make me feel like sunshine even when there is snow on the ground. I really love it now. Like an old friend. Maybe not the most exciting fragrance but it brings a smile just to think about it.

Suddenly thought I smelled marzipan and/or something horrible, not right! Washed it off. Another one I thought I would like from the reviews and notes in it (particularly bamboo) but on me, not nice :( Stale almonds, sort of reminiscent of the playdough smell I get with Hypnotic poison, so I'm guessing it just disagrees with my skin.

Surprisingly, even though everyone says Light Blue is worn by so many people, I have yet to come across someone who wears it. I find the scent to be quite beautiful after about ten minutes as the initial spray is extremely citrusy in my opinion. At first I wondered if it would stay like that but I was wrong. After a while I began to pick up lovely sweet notes; not cloying/overly-sugary though. More like a light sweetness that is still dominated by the zesty citrus. It's probably a good idea to spray this on during the daytime in Summer, and waiting 10-20 minutes before heading out/meeting up with someone. The first time you put it on it IS quite overpowering if you don't really like lemon. Because the lemon is very obvious at the beginning. All in all, a fragrance I find to be very nice and I'm glad I bought it.

I would associate this scent with work-related situations. It's also suitable when I just feel simple.

To me, it's a simple scent, not a fresh scent. It's simple in that it doesn't involve many floral or fruity elements. It does not contain anything provocative either. However, it's nothing close to being aquatic or minty.

I like the citrisy top notes, but it's really the base notes that resonates with me. The woody undertone is simple without being overly airy, and is liked by a number of my male friends (so far, I haven't asked any female friend yet). However, this undertone is quite weak, which is probably why many people feel that the scent does not last very long. If I spray it directly onto my wrist in the morning, by late afternoon, I would only be able to smell it if I give a serious sniff on my wrist.

The middle note is what smells like a household chemical product and I dislike. However there's nothing unpleasant in it, it's just not special.

I would keep the 25ml bottle because I feel this bottle best manifests the simplicity and the almost unisex appeal of this scent. Besides, that's as much as I would use before it expires. Also, I feel that the bigger bottles look kind of cheap.

After the top notes (that the first time I thought were way too citrusy for me but now I'm thinking otherwise), I don't smell any other notes in this perfume, as if it disappeared from my skin. That's too bad because when the top notes start to fade away, the faint smell I can still perceive is lovely.

I still dont get why is this so popular. I guess that Light Blue is like that popular group that we all had in high school: you will never know what made them special!
To me Light Blue smells like a soft toilet cleaner mixed with lemon soap and washed clothes. When I smell it on paper it has something that is really awfull to my nose but on skin it works better, although it still smells like a cheap cologne.
A friend of mine wears it all the time and I like it +/- on her although this always remember me of the smell of a toilet after the cleaning lady passed by...bahhh its a no no for me after several tryes to like it!

I originally got this from a friend and hated how limey it was. Upon a second try the lime note faded into something a bit sweeter but still fresh. I don't use this scent too often, but like it enough when I do. It's a popular scent but I probably won't buy it again.

It is a nice non-offensive citrusy fragrance with lightly woody undertone. it is a nicely done scent and pleasant too, but it is far too popular, it is almost like people choose light blue if they want to feel 'safe', ok it is 'tried and true' but i wouldnt love to smell like crowds of other people. There are millions of other fragrances that smell somewhat similar or even better.
Light blue has become the material personification of 'average' to me.

I'm giving this a new review! I got this as a gift recently from my boyfriend (he didn't know I used to have this one). I also received Cheap & CHic I Love Love in a swap and I compared the two. They are almost exactly the same. I am suprised though that I actually like this scent more so now then I did years ago! I did at one time think it was boring but now when I smell it I find that the spicyness keeps it interesting enough to want to wear it! Like I said in my review for I Love Love...I wouldn't have chosen to have both of these scents in my collection because they are so alike but having one or the other would be a good edition. It's super citrusy and spicy and last 5 hours or so. Reminds me of lemonade on hot summer days :)

I started it using it in 2001 when it just came out, but because it was the only fragrance i had, I got sick and tired of it by 2005 after several years of abuse.
I never repurchased it since it became the latest craze in the US.....too many people smelling like this. I finally bought it again after years of break.....couldn't resist a great deal for a large bottle. I remember Light Blue as very citrusy, bright, and refreshing with a great staying power and sillage. I wonder if I am going to have the same feelings about it

starlight~girl:)
starlight~girl:)

I so wanted to love this perfume when I tested it about a year ago... I recently tested it again.

I think because it was compared to a very light and sweet fragrance I owned. It was a Victoria's secret, secret garden fragrance (Secret Charm) and the girls at the store told me it smelled just like Dolce and Gabbana's Light Blue! I adored that one so much, I thought Light Blue must be wonderful. :)

So of course I had to sample it. I think if I wasn't comparing it to something so different. (Wished the Vicky's girls didn't get my hopes up) I hated it. It isn't like Secret Charm. It is not how I envisioned light and airy. It is aromatic, that is sure. It isn't strongly floral or sweet or gourmand. It is cleaner, But... it smells masculine in comparison to my expectations. There is something very strong about this one. Not like fresh air. Like a man's calogne scent or maybe something to clean your house... that is starting to expire. :'( chemical. ~ Maybe if they got rid of the Cedar/ Woods/ or Musk? Then it would be light and airy and sweet. This doesn't feel airy or should be marketed to women.

Now I am wondering how I would feel if I didn't compare it? Honestly I tried to give it a chance again this month. I sprayed it on my skin... and I have to say. Besides not liking the scent of it when sprayed... it really didn't like my chemistry. I was disappointed and also embarrassed that I felt like it smelled more like I was wearing a man's fragrance instead of a woman's. :( The girls at work did not think it smelled good on me at all. :'(

I had to go wash it off. I didn't understand why everyone loves it so much? Must just be how it is on my skin? It turned sour... is there supposed to be lightness or even a trace of sweetness? Where is the airy? Or the ocean? I think I might compare it more to one of those strong ocean or mountain scented candles that gives you a headache, and then throw in some woods and musk. ~ sigh :( so sad. I wish it wasn't so.

I am so sorry Light Blue, I wanted to love you. :( It smells a little masculine to me? Musky? I think this could be a very good fragrance on a man. :) Just not very feminine on me. And not great on my chemistry. (awful) :'(

I guess it wasn't meant to be.

I have no idea why this fragrance isn't marketed as a unisex scent. It seems it should be wearable by men too, likely due to the heavy-handed doses of cedar and lime. Having never smelled the male version, I can't imagine it smells much more masculine than this. There is more than a hint of lime here. The lime is actually overpowering on me. Once you get this on your skin, it literally lasts all day. To me, this smells identical to Roxy Love but is way pricier.

Hello, ladies, I am a 17 year-old teenager who loves this fragrance. The many girls who I've smelled with this fragrance say it is long-lasting.
It is one of my favorite summer fragrances for women, very soft, citrusy, summery and good! THIS IS ACTUALLY MY FAVORITE, the second favorite is Thierry Mugler's Womanity, but it is for the colder months. This juice makes me just catch the girl and hug and sniff her hard and forever! This is my favorite stuff!

I'll update this review after I wear this perfume once more. Today I found myself initially intrigued. Clean, fresh like water but slightly floral and powdery. It was strong, however. Eventually it began to smell like a floral/powdery perfume which is just... okay. I love that it lasts a very long time. I put the perfume on around 1:00, and I still smell it now at almost 10pm. For hours I got occasional whiffs of it.

I'll update my review next time I apply the perfume. I'd like to better analyze it after immediately applying it.

Once upon a time this perfume was a fresh masterpiece to me and it became one of my favorite fragrances.

After several years, two bad things have happened: (1) everybody started to wear it and (2) D&G changed its composition.

Now it causes me headache.

When I spray this on, I am underwhelmed. It's nice enough, definitely appropriate for offices, but it just never smells like enough of anything to excite me. I would be curious to smell this on someone else to see if it is more interesting. All in all, my reaction is "oh. Ok."

Idk, but I'm begging this one to stay a bit longer. don't just vaporize yet, I don't have time to reapply you every 2-3 hours:( not like a perfume but more like a cologne, on me at least. nice and fresh for summer, no longevity sadly:( maybe ı'll purchase it later, when it's summer.

The "Light Blue" I like wear in hot summer days. This is the only citrus scent that beautifully blends with my skin. It is very versatlte fragrance, perfect for the office, on e walk or meeting with friends.
Although it is very popular, will be always my number one of summer fragrance.

I love its smell cause it drives me high every moment of the day. I'm a teacher and my students say ''miss, we knew you re here, cause the whole school smells your perfume :))) '' It was the first gift of my fiance.. i used to wear it every time we went at his sisters home and i entered her bathroom and i sprayed myself.So he used to tell me...Oh my god, your smell is so addicted. Ever since i have one light blue in my bag every single day!
My next choice will be Pure Grace Philosophy.

I have worn this perfume for about eight years now and it is my signature! Since day one, every person i have encountered has commented on how good I smell. I have always loved it. I'm very picky about fragrances and my opinion on this one has never once wavered. It's my favorite. I go through the bottles like candy. There's no telling how many I have bought over the years but it is worth every penny! And it's my boyfriend's favorite as well. :)

Errr. I smell no floral fruity in this one. Sort of masculine-y and aquatic. Think of blue jeans, water, and a whole lot of testosterone.

I really don't understand the hype in this one. Lots of people wear this scent, male and female alike, but I'm really not impressed by this. Sorry.

Men's version is far more captivating. The aroma is similar to a lemon fresh water, too sweet and too cold. It is quite refreshing, but runs the risk of cloying. We recommend only for those who like hot and sweet perfumes, no sensual notes.

There is nothing else that smells quite like Light Blue. It is a bit of a legend in its own time...like Dior Poison, Lolita Lampika and Angel...When you smell someone wearing them, they are unmistakable because they are so unforgettable. With that said, this one to me, smells the way freshly cut lemons smell as you plop them into a summer cocktail. Mixed with that is the distinct smell of Pez...a candy I adored as a child...and the smell of Pez was a big draw to the candy for me, too! In the background..way, way in the back is a fresh, clean, aquatic-musk. Very interesting. Yes, a bit cloying--but it does have great lasting power. And I have yet to meet a man who does not love this on a woman.

This perfume is beautiful when worn properly. Really fresh, light, almost like a good riesling. However, I warn anyone who buys it, make sure you either use it quickly or store it properly, because after a few years it goes really lemony, like some kind of cleaning product. I love this perfume because it reminds me of when I fell in love with my current partner, so when I smell it, I get butterflies and feel like a young teenager again. If I buy it again, I will definately buy a smaller bottle.
Also, the majorly disappointing thing about this fragrance is that it doesn't stay on the skin for long at all. If only they made an EDP version of it.

All in all, a really nice fragrance for fans of sweet, citrus florals.

I don't understand how this became a best seller. Whenever I smell it, I actually recoil. Sour, acrid, unbalanced- to my nose, anyway. I can understand the comparisons to Lemon Pledge, but I think Lemon Pledge smells better than this. Final analyses: I'll stick to AG Eau D'Hadrien for my lemon/Italy kicks.

Is there anything left unsaid about this perfume? I think not..
When I got this fragrance as a gift I immediately thought it's not a perfume I can't get in love with, as first because of its wide popularity (too many women wear it expecially here in Italy) but most af all because I had tried a sample about 10 years ago and didn't like the citrus-lemon-fresh smell. I usually wear floral oriental fragrances, in summer too, and this scent doesn't match my preferences at all!
But...I must tell you this: some days ago I was wearing Light Blue during a grey winter afternoon and somehow I appreciated it, because I could perceive the subtle flowery notes I didn't notice before (maybe the jasmine? I don't know).
Just to tell you that, after a few minutes since spraying, this scents could get softer and almost "relaxing" on some skins. Maybe that's why many reviewers say it's a sexy scent.
It could be, but not in my way.
Last thing: citrus-lemon notes are meant to recall sicilian shores and landscapes: uhm ok, South Italy is full of lemon trees... but if you are looking for a more feminine (and authentic) Sicily natural scent you should try some orange blossom-based perfumes (just my personal opinion): this one feels more like a lemon crushed-ice drink :)

Smells like an angel fallen into a seashore!
Just reminds orange farms in spring. One of the best perfumes for summer and spring time that I it'd deserved the award instead of cheap masculine version.
Opens lemony citric and blossomy with a blast of vanilla and extremely proper for young girls in a casual way during late spring and summer.
It emerges all girlish elegances and delicacies. BUT not something only for girls, men can wear it also in a summery casual dress; I had it and used to wear it in hot summer days and I got lots of compliments!
Proper for under 30 both women and men and only casual. I don't think so it plays good on officials.

longevity 6/10 but remains on skin and from near to skin it's smellable.
sillage 9/10
scent 10/10

Sorry, maybe i don´t want to smell like everyone else?

I know that this is considered to be a popular, ready-to-wear, easy, everybody-loves-it fragrance, and if you don't wanna be like everybody else, try something different and blablabla.
Whatever.
It's popular because is a well made fragrance and seems to please almost everyone.
Smells good on me and on friends of mine that have the perfume, which is a rare thing.
The longevity is really good on me, another rare thing, considering that my skin seems to reject almost every perfume that I wear.
Another great thing about this one? It's fresh and sweet at the same time, which is perfect for someone living in a tropical country, like me!
No mather what people say, I simply love Light Blue.

Light Blue is well-named - it's fresh, aquatic, and airy. I love the citrus and light florals. It makes me think of going to the lakehouse in the summertime. Unfortunately, there is something dusty in this fragrance that goes utterly wrong on my skin... the best way I can describe it is that it "sours". As much as I would love to wear it, that one note spoils it for my skin.

I tried it due to the amazing reviews and its #4 best selling rating at Shephora.

It is not my cup of tea though I love my tea with lemon hehehe

This D&G fragrance smells identical to Shanghai Butterfly by Nanette Lepore. I guess it's really the other way around since Light Blue debuted first. The only difference I detect is a watery, aquatic freshness in Light Blue that I don't get with Shanghai Butterfly. I suppose it could be the bamboo note. Both have a sweet citrus top note supported by a woodsy-musky base. They are both delicious and feminine.

Everytime I spray this I get that old lady vibe and I dont know why since it is mostly worn by a younger set. Smells so good on my niece.

if you associate 'freshness','lightness', 'cleanness' with citrus scents, go for it.
it's probably one of the best easy-to-find/affordable choices.i give credit to the lasting power as well. but,if you don't find yourself in the above statement, choosing this will be a mistake of massive proportions. subjective feeling: too 'sour'.

This scent is very annoying. First there is a lemon-soapy smell that smells clean and hopeful. But like those annoying store clerks at Bed, Bath and Beyond who won't stop cheerily saying hello and asking if you need help for the 100th time. This scent quickly starts to feel intrusive. What starts fresh with possibilities quickly sours to cheap-lemony dry down that lingers between your eyes and tingles your nose in an aggravating way, and does not develop into anything more.

Smells of cedar with a touch of a fresh lemon. It turns a little dirty smelling and masculine on me.

Lots of women say this is an aphrodisaic scent, and the cedar that features prominantly could be the reason. I think both men and women could wear this, it's very unisex.

I really dislike this perfume. Maybe it is my skin or something else. I just did not like it on me or even sprayed in the air. The smell to me is very strong and reminded me of men's cologne. I don't bathe in perfume just a very small amount goes a long way. I would not describe it as fruity floral. I do smell a hint of lime but mainly cedar.

Well the name suits it perfectly, its light ans its blue. In my skin its basicly vanilla and salt water but none of this notes are mentioned, so I guess my skin its just weird. I think its a really safe frangrance, good for summer and for young girls. There is something there I really dont like but I have no idea what it is, probably the cedar and the bamboo :S I dont undertstand why people call this a sexy perfume, in my opinion it doesnt have any personality :S Its good, but nothing special or original :S

It is worn by many women, I often notice the perfume on the train and at work, and men seem to like it, too.

I love this scent a lot. Its not a WOW scent or anything like that. Not an evening perfume, either. Its just a pleasent, good scent, that I want to wear, when I don't want to have heavy scents around me and Im sitting in my sofa, with a good cup of tea, a book and in some cozy clothes. Or in the summer, when its way to hot for those heavy scents, that makes you gag! Or like a YOGA scent. Peacefull. I really like strong, heavy and sweet scents..but sometimes its just lovely to have a scent around, that goes in with ur skin. It smells like summer and fresh laundry. I am happy that this is still around and I hope that Dolce Gabbana, will keep this little beauty in their collection, forever! This is waaaaay better than Donna Karan's "Be Delicious", which is way to sweet for me and gives me a headace. TRY THIS, if u want a safe feel good fragrance!

This is so immensely popular. I dont have a bottle myself and would like to have it although I would not say its one of my absolute favourites but as I live in tropical weather and work in an office all day thought this might be a good nonoffensive scent to have that people seem to like. I personally think though it is a bit overhyped. I dont consider it sexy but rather fresh and lemony I am surprised that it is always called a man magnet since it is not very girly and sexy. It is kind of unisex. Still very pleasant, worth having.

Hi.

The name of this EDT describes it perfectly LIGHT BLUE.So Popular because it is Lightness and Freshness not overpowering and Offensive. Tasty, Crisp,Clean,Unisex,Youthful,Casual, Light and Sporty.

It has a Refreshing and Light mixture of Light Flowers and Citrusy notes.You can really smell a touch of Apple and Lemon in it with a Cute floral heart and a Soft base of Musk and Amber that makes it quite Gentle on the Skin.

Everyone can use this type fragrances in their Collection.LIGHT BLUE is for a Active Character That Appreciates freedom and dislike Sharp smell too.It remindes me of a Light spring day.Anyway if You think about a Special Example this is not for You!

Sillage?Avreage.

Longevity?About 4 hours on my skin.

I've given in. This is my cousin's signature scent so I tried to stay away from this since she practically BATHES in this. It just kept calling to me so I gave in. I bought a 1.6 oz bottle. I'll sneak and wear this so she won't ever know ;)

This fragrance IS summer in a bottle. It starts off very lemony and citrusy and dries down to a still citrusy scent but not just any citrus. Not like you've been playing in rain soaked lemons. Like a beautiful lemony harmony smell. It's beautiful. For an EDT it lasts pretty good on me but I'll have to test it for a few more days first :)

Because of its massive popularity I was predisposed to dislike this, but I have to say that I enjoyed it. I sprayed some onto my wrist and let it dry before taking it in. To me, this is a more expensive version of Moschino's I Love Love. It starts out completely identical for the first hour, but slowly the jasmine blooms out from the cracks to round out the scent and turn it into more of a juicier floral. If it weren't for the jasmine I would have been appalled at how identical this was to I Love Love. Nonetheless, this is a lovely fragrance, but not one I'll be purchasing due to its overpopularity and relative similarity to I Love Love.

the scent start with citrus grandis smell, with lime peel... very nice actually and I love the scent. Then, after few while, the scent turn to slightly woody and spicy..maybe the cedar start to smell, but the citrus smell did not disappear.. but blend nicely together with the other notes.
Now, I think I like it (previously I dont really like it)... a should try perfume in my opinion...

Light Blue is a good summer scent. It won't get complaints from co-workers or stink up the bus. It is not like a real perfume but it costs as much. It seems like something that you should be able to buy at the discount pharmacy for $19.99 as a body splash. Just a refreshing scent that most everyone can wear.

Never really liked this one, not because it smells bad, but because it was SO popular.
But I do have to admit that it really smells like promised: south woods on the seashore, Sicilian summer, yes, it's all that. Very, very fresh, lemon, apple and flowerish notes (but just a hint of flowers) - pure aquatic-green scent. Too sharp for my taste.

And no, it's not fair to slam something just because it's popular, but it can easily make it annoying. Although, it's not even remotely as popular as it was 5-8 years ago, so you might give it a chance now.

It surely is a summer classic.

I don't get impressed by D&G Light Blue. It's not super wow to me, just ordinary.

- Surely it smells so good, light, fresh and uplifting. But the after smell kinda annoys me.
- I feel like drown in a scented aquatic marine tank. And I find it kinda boring scent as well.
- For you who really want to get the feeling close to the blue ocean in the summer, this might be the right perfume.

It's so fresh: green bamboo, white rose, apple, lemon, with base of airy cedar and wonderful depth from the bellflower.

I just can't get enough of it.I think it's unjust for it to be slammed just because it's a popular perfume...

P.S.-about the reformulation- it has a little bit less staying power, but nothing disturbing, the smell is intact. Still lasts for hours and clings in my clothes until I wash them.

There is something about this scent that lures me into it. I'm a gourmand/vanilla girl at heart, but this is one of my favorite scents. I will absolutely keep a bottle laying around.
Where I'm from, it's not very common, but I would imagine in larger cities it would be.
On my skin, this scent is a nice sweet citrus. Slightly masculine, but very sweet as to making it loved by males. Sweet cedarwood (bring out the masculine in this), a little bit of musk, and loads citron with a hint of apple. I get compliments a lot when wearing this! The lasting power is pretty good for an EDT too. On my skin, it lasts up to 6 hours.

Normally I don't go for something so mainstream, but it's a fantasic summer scent for work. It's not dominantly floral or powdery. It's more feminine in the beginning but ends out being unisex in the end. That's fine with me, it's clean, fresh, & classy. I can see why it's so popular with nurses.

Seems like everybody love this! I prefer this than the male one, althought it's a little bit feminine for me to wear.
Easily to detect the jasmine from the begining, with some apple and citruses ( girls love this). A little light but that's what this about. A truly summer fragrance!

Hmmm...so so dissapointed ...D&G changed the formula ...!!!!!!!!
Light blue used to be strong with a great sillage ...long lasting too ...
Now seems like a perfumed water ..so weak ...;(((...a shadow of what it used to be when it first came out !
I was a big fan of it...u can read my previous review....
Now..i wouldn't buy it again !

I can see where the good reviews come from, this is just lovely!

The fruity opening is crisp & tasty, the heart is fresh & delicious and the drydown remains fresh.

My only qualm with D&G Light Blue is that it is, in fact, very light. I would like to see more robustness about it.

It is winter now so maybe it needs a bit of skin heat to bring out its full potential. I will retry in summer.

Nice scent but it can be smelt EVERYWHERE
and thus the reason I don't own it.

This is the perfect scent for jeans and a t-shirt; bright, airy, casual, clean.

An everyday scent for the ordinary girl.

Love the bamboo - almost wet and fibrous - the key note for me that elevates this scent from 'just there' to 'OH YEAH'

But I have to say ... not good choice of name "light blue" and the bottle looks dated

I don't understand how anyone can call this fragrance "sweet." Fresh, however, is a better way to put it.

It's also pretty unisex, as some men I'm friends with love to wear this stuff too.

The problem is that this stuff is sold out over where I live, so for anyone who wants something similar, try Chance Eau Fraiche by Chanel. It is WAY more expensive, though.

Ease up guys!so what if its popular and everybody wears it,nothing to get offended about.I wont mind smelling this very popular fresh,unoffensive fragrance around everywhere i go,if the general public smells nice i dont mind at all. I think we sometimes take scents too seriously.Not evey perfume has to have a unique ''my'' signature scent.Cut it some slack. Its a very pretty fragrance. Perfect for summer, like sugary flowery lemonade.Makes me smile.Im just glad something like Dior tender poison isnt popular.Wont want to be stuck in an elevator full of people wearing that!

I love citrus fragrance but light blue doesn't impress me. At the beginning I think it's sharp,strong,and not smell like any citrus fruit. Anyway,I like drydown because it's not too sweet flower. Many reviewers say its smell like I Love Love but I think I Love Love is more citrusy and fresh citrus fruit.

Like everyone out there, I fell for this one at first time. I was young(and I didn't know better) and it was something simple, fresh and "sexy". After using it for 3 days or so, I hated it. I felt like using a men`s cologne. Now as it is so popular, every teenager has a bottle and so many people know about this perfume I just find it annoying. There is nothing feminine about this scent. I believe it would make a better job as a "body splash".

Alot of people seem to have Light Blue but I don't understand all the hype behind this fragrance.

It's a clean summer suited fragrance that evokes the feeling of an oceanic breeze. The hint of crisp fruit make it a little more appealing.
But for some odd reason, Light Blue gets tiring after a while. Strangely enough, the fragrance itself doesnt even last that long either.
I think it annoys me more to the point that everyone seems to be wearing this, so Light Blue has somewhat lost its mystique and appeal.

Not a very special fragrance.. just over rated.

Didn't really care for this one . Too strong ,cloying and run of the mill .

A friend has it and offered me some sprays. It smelled nice on my skin, but it could only be considered nice. That's it. It's a very safe fragrance, very wearable, but not unique at all. Kinda boring, for me. The worse thing is, many people wear it.

It's a nice choice, but too boring and the price isn't responsible. It's too expensive for a dull bottle of a boring fragrance. Sorry, not my cup of tea at all.

Gosh.. there is a lot of comments and i have to go really low to leave my own comment. Erm, i knew this perfume few years ago when it's ad appear on tv. After try it, i decide that this is not for me. After bought D&G The One, i really want to try this again. I did, and still dont attract me enough.Why??
I dont know... then i search it in eBay and do a little research. I see the bid for new and used bottle of this perfume. Amazingly, this perfume have such a high demand worldwide. The auction always goes more than USD 40 for a new 25ml bottle, and it can goes up higher. Then i try it again, and i still cant remember the smell after few days. (Usually when I'm attracted to a perfume, i can recognize the smell from a mile away and i can remember the smell). The salesgirl told me that this smell nice, but i think it too simple, linear and very usual.
Because not so satisfy, i bought a bottle of 50ml. After wear it, i found that this perfume may share few same notes with Marc Jacobs Daisy, but less sweet. Nice, pleasant and suitable for daily use. Sillage is weak, unfortunately, but last on my skin.
As a conslusion, I still dont love it. Just wearable, that all.

I still like lacoste perfumes.

I bought this as a gift for someone, but had to take a sniff before I handed it over.
The top is sharp lemon, verging on bitter grapefruit citrus. It sweetens and the florals take over but this is quick and short lived, as the cedar comes on and settles in for the duration. I like cedar but I don't pick up anything else after the 1st 5 minutes, so it's rather boring...a 1 note wonder, almost verging on masculine in it's woodiness.
It has excellent sillage, as I only put on a drop, but it should for the price.

In short, it's ok, but I won't miss it when I give it away. I've got other cedar scents to fill the void.

This fragrance is just gorgeous. Yes it is very light but it's not watered down. (meaning; you can get the smell) It is cool and refreshing, therefore it is very hot and sexy. If I were a man, I'd love to smell this on a woman especially in summer. Yes it is very popular, but it doesn't smell the same on everyone. On my skin I can get the woody notes clearly, which is one of the things I was looking for in this fragrance. Even though I'm not much into lemony and citrusy scents I think this one is just more than lemon cologne. It has a depth, a very refreshing one but yes it does have depth. I think a fragrance doesn't have to be a heavy oriental or chypre floral in order to be sexy. There are lots of reasons for this fragrance to get so popular and achieve its success. For example Hypnotic Poison, which breaks my nose and aches my stomach, is known to be one of the sexiest fragrances. Well, guess what I think this one is way sexier. It's all about what you expect from a fragrance. I've been wanting to have this for a long long long time and it is today I got my bottle from my mother as a gift and I can't stop smelling myself. Every time the scent hits my nose I feel so happy and confident and I want to smell more. I won't recommend you to try this, because I know you already have and you have an opinion. Well people think it's good, people think it's bad. All in all this juice has touched so many lives.

D&G LIGHT BLUE is just that: light and blue, an aromatic and quasi-aquatic fragrance which evokes images of waves crashing against the shore.

LIGHT BLUE is cool and refreshing, opening with a powerful punch of juicy lemon, which manages to overwhelm whatever florals purport to be present--entirely undetectable to my nose. The wood does comes through a bit--this isn't only lemon juice and zest--but in the end LIGHT BLUE is more of a cologne or a splash than a perfume.

I can see spraying this all over my body lying naked under a ceiling fan as the temperature approaches 100F. But for that purpose, LIGHT BLUE may be overpriced--as well as overhyped.

I remember having the bottle of light blue in my teens: it was my all time favourite: fresh and citrucy, and also the apple))yeah))
I recently surrendered to my nostalgia and bought another bottle and realized i can't wear it anymore. I don't know what was the problem: maybe i developed a taste for richer, maturer fragrances and light blue does not do it for me anymore. or it's a strong association with my school years - i did not particularly like them. so i gave it away to my younger cousin))

cedar + citrus is a winning combination. ALWAYS. For me, Light Blue goes a little bit heavy on the woody accords, but it's not hard to see why Light Blue is so widely appealing. It's clean, uncomplicated, and pleasant. I'm sure it's making Dolce&Gabbana a pretty penny.

More importantly, I think, Light Blue is really defining an era in perfumery. Gourmandy pink-peppery grapefruity trends aside, Light Blue hit the right chords of freshness that's really resonating with perfumistas all over the world. Whenever I smell a new release, three times out of five it reminds me of LIGHT BLUE in some way or the other. It's becoming a reference by which to measure newer citruses. Maybe in another decade or two, Light Blue would be a classic that redefined a genre.

One thing though - Light Blue is so common that you don't need to read these reviews - I guarantee you have smelled it for yourself somewhere on somebody before.

Finally got a chance to test it on my skin. I have unusual skin-chemistry that makes most fragrances go to the base notes directly, and Light Blue is no exception.

On first spray it has nice fresh citrus tones which disappear within a few minutes. The cedar dominates for most of the next couple hours, with a bitter note that I dislike standing out for a good half an hour. After 2 hrs it tones down a little to a more powdery scent with some lingering cedar, with no trace of citrus nor the bitter note remaining. Hardly any floral throughout.

Smells good on paper, and probably other people, but doesn't work for me. Main difference is that the citrus lasts on paper.

Overusage is not the fault of the fragrance. It's really quite lovely.

Light Blue is a classic hence its popularity. Intensely fresh and citrusy. It's a feel good, pick-me-up fragrance. I read that a lot of guys like this one too. I say go for it. Only weak and immature people need permission from others. Versace Eau Fraiche and Rabanne's Black XS for men are similar to Light Blue.

Light Blue is becoming like Cool Water for women, too popular. My recommendation would be to layer it with something else if you don't want to smell like everyone else.

While I admit this fragrance is VERY overused and almost embarassingly mainstream nowadays, I LOVE it !!! I don't know why, or even how I passed it up for almost 8 years, but since I've owned it since last May, I find myself almost constantly wearing this or Chanel Chance eau Fraiche. The apples and lemon give it such a beautiful tartness, while the bluebells give it a softness that evens out the scent. This and the Chanel are my 2 constants !! LOVE LOVE LOVE it !!!

When I fist sprayed on this perfume, a burst of refreshing citrus hit me. Not too sour not too sweet, this scent is perfect for the summer. Light, refreshing, simple, and unlike most designer perfumes, not too strong, anyone can pull of this fantastic scent. It reminds me of sweet lemonade on hot summer days and is deffinatley worth a try if you like citrusy fragrances.

This is a very light and citrusy scent. Upon first spraying, the lemon notes are very dominant. After the dry down the floral notes come out. I apply the lotion first and the perfume seems to last longer.

My current favorite is D & G L'Imperatrice and Light Blue is similar to me. Citrusy, clean and almost unisex.

Other people wearing this have wafted by me and I thought, "One of these days, I'm going to try this heavenly scent." Oh dear. Three hours later and my chemistry screams "Spicy pepper!" And not in a good way. In the kind of way that clings inside my nose. No amount of scrubbing with a cloth will erase the scent from my wrists. Unlike some readers, I don't think it smells like citrus or household cleaner, but I do agree that it lasts and can also be worn by men.

I bought a bottle of this stuff at full price. Unfortunately it must be old stock and has "turned" because the scent seems faint and won't last--the beautiful top notes disappear in just a few minutes. In desperation I've tried to spritz more of it on and the result was awful. The bellflower and something else in it is very pronounced on my skin [amber maybe???], it's sharp, silvery and metallic. It's the very same scent I detest after my warm skin touches cheap jewellry. I felt gross [and dirty!].

Today I experimented a bit. After my L'eau D'Issey wore down, I spritzed on the Light Blue and huzzah! I could tolerate it. Maybe I don't have to throw out the bottle after all!?

I adore the top notes. I love the juicy freshness of the citrus and Granny Smith apples near a grove of cedar trees. Shame that my bottle is compromised. After that, all I get are flowers, again the Bellflower is most apparent on my skin. This time it's not the metallic mess it was before. In my mind I see an old fashioned English garden, with roses and pretty Bluebells [the namesake is Light Blue after all], and late-blooming apple blossoms.

It is fresh feeling, youthful, and enticing--flirty even. The combo of bluebells and juicy fruits is very appealing. Is the fragrance that started the fruity-floral craze? I honestly prefer it to the nauseatingly sugar sweet ones that sell so well here.

i love this scent and every time i wear it i get compliments and always get asked what i am wearing. i tend to think that it doesn't last all day as some of the other comments say it doesn, i find myself spraying it on to freshen it up later in the day. however, this is one scent that i will continue to buy and wear

This perfume is my signature smell. It's not over the top. It's not thick and musky. It's not heavy and overwhelming. I have never been able to find a fragrance I like as much as this. It is clean and soft. I have been wearing this perfume for years now. I still to this day have not only women but men asking me what I am wearing. It is classic and not overdone. I also do not find it annoyingly sweet and fruity like most "fresh" and "Light" smelling fragrances. Light and Simple enought to wear everyday but still sexy enough to wear out. I understand that everyone wants to be unique and wear something that is not common, but I guess if the shoe fits wear it. I love it and I don't think I will ever find a more suitable scent.

I got this perfume as a gift from my husband two years ago, and I'm ashamed to say that I haven't been wearing it much.

Very citrusy and cold fragrance. I can detect bamboo and on my skin it turns powdery in a very chilly and fresh way. It's fresh and almost unisex. I do like it on other people but I don't quite know how to wear it and feel a bit uncomfortable when wearing it.

I know that this is a hugely popular perfume, but I was incredibly disappointed in it. D & G perfumes and I have never gotten along (I think they don't last and are way overpriced) but from reading the reviews I really thought I would like it, but there is just something wrong with it. I understand the idea they had in mind to create a light, clean perfume but somewhere they went wrong. Maybe the apple note? It just smells like too many different weird things at once, I don't like it. If you are looking for a good citrus, clean scent I recommend Look by Vera Wang.

In a nutshell:

(1) Great, fresh and light citrus scent - with a hint of complexity.
(2) Has very good staying power for a scent of this type.
(3) This is a popular scent, so you will find many others wearing it, which is a negative if you want to wear something unique.

Is Light Blue too mainstream for you? Same same but different?

Try layering it with some deep rich straight ambers - classy ones like M&G Ambre Prec. - & it turns into a delicious, meltingly-warm yet zesty amber. In case you are wondering why I would do such a thing to AP, it doesn't debase the amber at all.....but it does give LB a different, classic edge, with velvety smooth undertones & serious lasting power.

Next up - layering LB with some clear, clean citrus & watery fruity fragrances to see if it can be 'lifted'.

Light Blue is one of the few mainstream fragrances I actually like - and use. The fruity florals tend not to work on me at all, but this one does.

The opening is very fresh cocktail of citrus and green apple, but I can get the gentle amber and cedar lingering underneath. The zestiness of lemony accents and apple preserve the floral notes beautifully, usually my skin tends to turn florals quite sour.

The musk starts to emerge gradually, but on my skin this fragrance does not lose its freshness, it is probably the most lasting citrus scent I've ever tried.

I like this on summer, but it also makes a good work fragrance with it's good staying power but not at least bit intimidating presence with very fresh and uplifting qualities. I can totally see the unisex quality of this scent, actually I think that Emporio Armani White for Men stole quite a lot from this fragrance. But there are sweet and sensual notes on this, if your skin emphasizes those, the overall impression can be quite feminine.

The huge popularity is definitely a downside.

Simply gorgeous. A sparkling citrussy floral that is good any time of year. It is fresh, clean and complex and to me smells very expensive although, strangely, it can often be found for as little as £10 a bottle in the UK. I have got through a few bottles of this in the last five years, one a very large bottle and hope it is never discontinued (because the smelly things I love usually are not popular and therefore are discontinued - sob!). It seems to smell very different on each different person because a couple of times I have stopped people to ask what their gorgeous perfume is and they have said it was Light Blue. Perfume is a very personal and idiosyncratic choice so it's very hard and often inadvisable to buy perfume for someone 'blind' but I would always recommend this as a reasonably safe choice to a man wondering what to buy for a woman as I can't imagine many people not liking this perfume.
Ps. If you want a fresh 'apple' fragrance, in my opinion this is it!

A fresh and really nice fragrance. The perfume is great for hot days and nights, in winter or summer. I live in Brazil, in a extremely hot city, and I use it all the time. A really wearable one! It is great for people who does not like stronge and sweet fragrances. It can be popular, but, for me, it is still a wonderful scent that makes me feel full of energy.

The fragrance itself and it's popularity are different things, I think. The scent is perfectly balanced and very well-done, even if fruity and "light", it's not just a summer perfume since it can behave rather warm and comfortable in cooler weather. If someone tries it in winter it will naturally give a totally different impression. It's long lasting and it beautifully blooms on the skin even if it doesn't change much during the day by means of losting it's character or intensity. Light BLue is for a confident, healthy, self-consious young woman, however, teenagers use it as well and it smells different (simpler, fruitier) on most of them than on women in their 30's.
On the other hand this gorgeous fragrance became so popular that many woman doesn't use it only because of this fact. It's a shame but I really understand it, I like LB too but wander weather to wear it or not, because I don't want anyone to think I lack fantasy or personality. I wander how long this incredible popularity lasts...

yes it smells citrusy, and yes everyone wears it (at least i have 3 women i know wear light blue, by my recommendation).
citrus frags are so yesterday, true.
but i live in tropical climate country where deep dark 'thick' or powerful and long lasting scent will give people headache; so light - scented frag would be perfect. and yes, im not into floral fragrance, yet in fact i own 1 or 2 for certain occasions; where fruity frags will be considered as 'childlike' or 'immature' or 'teen-like'.

to me, light blue gives me more than citrus scent. it smells like clean air in bamboo forest.crisp, clean, and i can smell the bitterness of the bamboos, but not that bitter; light blue is bitter but plain-flavored rice plays behind all that. the citrus itself is like the curtain. so, light blue for me is a bamboo forest nearby a rice-mill along with a river in tropical country like here, but all of this scene is still covered by the citrus curtain. all that i need to do is spray some, wait until the curtain falls, then i can go walk into the scene.

I don't know why it has got all this popularity especially when summer arrives; it's in the best sellers in all perfumes stores. I didn't like it and find a fragrance like Cool water a million time better for hot summer days. If you really like this one, you many try Apparition Sky (Ungaro), a cc of LB and much cheaper.

This was a silly excuse for a perfume.

If your friend sprayed this on, you'd literally have to sniff her up close cause Light Blue is nothing more than a spray of air. - If you want to smell real clean air, go outside and sniff to your hearts content.

You might like to spray this on after a cool shower, but otherwise, there is very little about it that makes it worthy.

This is fresh and has plenty of citrus notes, but it's also strong (so make sure to use it sparingly). In the opening I get a little bit of the apple and lots of the lemon. The dry-down isn't very warm, but I do get more floral and wood notes. This is a very likeable fragrance, and can be worn by a huge range of ages and in pretty much any setting.

I recognise the scent on everyone who wears it, too. But not in a good sense.

It is metallic, chemical, it hits my gall bladder and makes me sick. I had it, I bought it after sniffing it, but one inch down the bottle I couldn't stand it.
It is said to be fresh and citrusy, but it smells like toilet cleaning lotions, they are citrusy and fresh as well.
If you want a D&G perfume "that evokes the spirit of the Sicilian summer", try Sicily.

It's not the perfumes fault I just perfer more gourmand florals and this was just floral with no sweetness to it IMO. I have smelt this on other women and it smells lovely it's just not for me.

Wow, I am SO in the minority here - I hate this perfume and everything it stands for, it literally makes me ill!

Unfortunately for me it's pretty popular where I live, so there is no escape....

Yes, I realise it's a touch cliched now, but the first time I smelt this I was knocked out by just how lovely it was and I've loved it since. At every stage from that citrusy first spray right through to the last warm notes I love it. I hate the name, I dislike the fuzzy box, the lid constantly falls off in my bag and the bottle bores me, but I'm still searching for a fragrance that is the complete journey for me, as this one is.

I must live in the only corner of the world where people don't wear this perfume! Every day I slip-stream Addict, a cabinet of CK perfumes & Miss Dior Cherie. . . Light Blue would have made a welcome change!

So, my experience is different from everyone else's - a fresh look!

Lemon sherbet with a sour, fizzy twist, cedar & fresh air. It reminds me of the male Black XS, but where BXS has strawberries, LB has lemons. On my skin I find a lot of powder (which I love). It also makes me think of Roxy Love....Chanel Chance Eau Fraiche being a very distant cousin.

On me it's strong & sweet (not something I usually like) with good sillage (lots of compliments) & a reasonable lasting power, mixing very well with salty sea water on the beach.

I am one of those who "get" this perfume - granted, it doesn't change much but its simplicity is fine by me. It's not jaded for me, so it still remains a little ray of fizzy sunshine on a hot summer's day.

While this perfume is certainly not as offensive as many others, ths sharp disinfectant edge is highly disappointing. If this is a standard for fresh floral fruity perfumes full of citrus accords, these "fresh" fragrances all have a long way to go. I suppose I could imagine this smelling nice on the right skin, but this one is indeed far too common and synthetic lemon drop-y...

I have it and I like it not bad at all but not amazing. I just got it today from a store that had it for only $29.99. Amazing deal huh and it is the real deal. Anyway I think it smells nice and is a good all year round perfume. I don't smell the harshness that others describe either on my skin or on paper. It is sweet and is quite unique considering I have smelt and purchased a number of perfumes that "supposedly" smelled like Light Blue. Now I have the real thing. What I love the most is the apple and the mild cedar notes. Nothing in my collection smells like it so thats a plus. Once this bottle runs out I probably wouldn't buy it again but it is definately worth it if you can find it for a good deal. ;')

Edit:
Ehh on second thought I don't really care for it that much and I just sold my bottle. Light Blue is just not for me!

Believe me, I life in Switzerland where people are most discreet and do not complement on anything easily!
I like "Light Blue" a lot, but I like fragrances that "stay" with me the whole day….."Light Blue" makes an exit on my skin within 2 hours and I am not able to smell a trace of it anymore…anywhere….not even on my clothes! But strangely others can! I even got complimented and required the name of the fragrance by a complete stranger while I was visiting a friend at the hospital!

Out of all the popular perfumes I've tried, this one is by far the most nondescript and forgettable. Which Is why I'm not quite understanding all this hype about Light Blue. On my skin, it just smells like a generic aromatic citrus. I usually have a lot to say about a perfume regardless of whether or not I like it. This is all I have to say about LB.

An other exceptional scent from DG, I love Sicily as well. First I bought it years ago in Venice, but when I tried it I found it very sour and had headaches from it, but later i got very used to it and everybody noticed and liked it on me. Than it became too common and I stopped using it when my husband told me it reminds him of his old love.. too painful for me and for him to wear it again.. but I will love it forever.

I like this one very much..I know most keeps whining that it's common or smells like cedar shavings.. I'm happy to wear most popular scents (I'll say excluding Amor Amor... I'm constantly catching it in air from time to time... ) It smells like a lemon and apple with cedar a lot and I like it. On me it's a bit bitter and very nice. When lemony notes disappear there's cedar left with gentle hints of flowers. I love cedar smell, I enjoy to sharpen cedar-wood made pencils and sniff it then. It's sharp cedar here in this perfume. Still something freshy is left that makes this perfume perfect for hot day wear. It reminds me of holidays by the sea in my country.
Agree about furniture polish and cedar chest, but I like 'furniture' smell. :D I noticed that from bottle it smells a little different- sweet, very fresh and a bit floral. Very adorable.
Lasting power and projection is very good. Bottle nice too but I like it in smaller sizes better. The big one looks kinda cheap.
I'm not so in love with it that I would run to store tomorrow to get it.

finally I got the chance to smell this one and I like everything about it.the bottle is transparent like most of fresh and not heavy perfumes that I adore and in fact I like "blue" very much.
in fact the top notes are not very attracting for me.it's just full of citrus without any other dominant note,like so many perfumes I've seen here and there.
but the middle and base notes are great and it gets better as it remains on skin.I feel some hints of nina by nina ricci,but it's mixed better and fresher than than.
I'm not a fan of all Olivier Cresp perfumes,but this one is well done.the only problem is that it's so common these days.so I won't look that unique wearing it.

I have smelled this on a co worker & it changed my mind about this.It actually smelled very sweet on her.I couldn't believe it.After I had told her she smelled good she said Thanks its "light blue"....I thought WHAT it cant be.I now have a new found respect for light blue.I smelled way more then just lemon but as I didn't get right up on her & smell her (though I wanted to) I cant make out any distinct prominent notes.
I will definitely be trying light blue out for a full day next time.I had stuffed the sample I had way in the back on my sample drawer but I will be pulling it up to the front today ;) But I wont wear it to work. LOL

I know this scent is a bestseller, but I didn't really find anything memorable about it. It is 'light', but I couldn't really pick out any notes in particularly. I won't be buying a large bottle of this--glad I only invested in the mini.

Update: Based on the popularity of this one, I decided to try it again. Now my opinion is ever worse! My husband asked if I was wearing Lemon Pledge, and I have to agree. Yuck--giving this one away!

It is a twin of Moschino Love Love (or vise versa), very citrusy, over the top. The combination of lemon scent with cedar is lovely (like in Chance Fraishe, which is very gentle and elegant), but in Light Blue slash Love Love it's way overdone!

Update: I should correct myself, because I think, I oversprayed it last time. Georgeous citrus scent! Really worth its price and popularity!

This perfume's name fits it perfectly- "Light Blue" is bland, ubiquitous- background noise in a bottle. Just as the color is a popular, if uninspired choice, "Light Blue" is the soul of mediocrity. Its a blast of citrus, then fade to static.

About 2 months ago I made a list of all the best-selling fragrances around the globe and made it my duty to try them all. Light Blue was on this list.

I would love to have had a picture taken the moment I sniffed this for the very first time. I think I was in utter disbelief as to how people loved this perfume. All I got from this fragrance was a strong, sour burst of lemon. I usually associate lemon scents to detergents and cleaners around my home.

This was in no way a pretty or feminine fragrance. I have Moschino Funny! which is slightly similiar, but more floral and much lighter. I consider Funny! a better alternative to Light Blue. I will however add that men seem to love this fragrance, even though they agree with me when I say it's strong and lemony sour.

Fragrance for the modern-casual yet simple woman. This fragrance is light and clean yet sophisticated and refined due to its complex scent.
An impish note of green apple emanates from the latest creation of the most impertinent of italian designers. Light blue, is not a lighter version despite its name. It sparkles with flowers and fruit notes that are an enticement to joie de vivre. The fragrance opens on a fresh and gourmet note of sicily cedar, granny smith apple and bluebells. The middle note is a bouquet of jasmine, bamboo and white rose. The end note reveals hints of cedarwood, amber and musk.

This is the best perfume I have bought in years. It is absolutely stunning. It is very longlasting and fresh. I could bathe in it. When I first bought it 3 years ago, I kept having to smell the wrist which I sprayed it on because I could not get enough of it. I find that it is a very uplifting scent and I have had so MANY compliments on it. There is another perfume called mosschino, which smells very similar but I don't like it as well.

First time i teasted it was a great fragance, i knew my Mom want it so i gave it to her as a christmas gift,after that, it was hard to me smellt it every time my mom wear it, it was because i was pregnat, and now, 2 years later my sister in law has it and i can not be near her when she used it, i guess it is because i remember the morning sickness this perfume made me had. But being honest it is a soft and chic fragance.

This scent is pleasant enough, but it reminds me of air freshener in a bathroom. I kept sniffing it and thinking, I would really like my bathroom to smell like this. It smells like floral lemon Pledge. It's a heap of citron with a dash of sweet florals, and a pinch of wood. Too much citron/lemon smell for me. Lasting power is good though, 4.5+ hours on me so far...

So fresh! Reminds me of scooting on a Vespa around the hairy scary twisty turny roads along the way to Positano in the height of summer. The sparkling blue water way below me, the bright blue sky above, the wind in my hair... Not that I've done it that way, doing it in a crowded bus with a crazy driver and being bus sick, is much less romantic! Anyway, Light Blue is very lemon zesty and crisp green appleish. A touch sharp, is that the cedar? but only when it first goes on. I get a hint of white musk and fresh lime zest too and those woods seem bright, can woods be bright? Maybe the scent of them brushing past you with the scent of citrus in a warm breeze. The florals are lovely too, but I could not have picked them for bluebells, jasmine or white rose if they hit me over the head. Either way, it all adds up to a bright and invigorating summer scent!

Cedar and lemons....step up from furniture polish. I can't understand where they came up with the name. Heavy Yellow sounds more appropriate. I liked it at first till I got tired of smelling like a cedar chest.

I find the perfume a little disappointing.It is very flat on my skin.It does not work well with my chemistry at all.
I get a burst of Lime rind & very little else.If I really search for it I can find the cedar & a very slight tinge of floral but it is so light I can't make it out.
I would say that this would be nice in the summer as it is so full of citrus.I myself would not wear such a bland scent but it may work well on you??

I know a lot of people love it. Not being one of them, I find Light Blue rather flat and one sided. I only get lemon and some apple, no jasmin nor rose or whatsoever. It's very fresh and nice for summers I guess, but doesnt evolve much on my skin. Im gld I only got a minature instead of a whole bottle, as my sister wasnt very keen on it either.

D & G have succeeded to create a fragrance that is a modern classic, being capable of capturing something very essential of our times. Light Blue also seems to allure loads of women considering the countless bottles of it sold around the globe since its launch. LB is a true "democratic" perfume so to speak, as anyone can wear it no matter what age or style or nationality she is. It is very likeable, excellent, easy-going and carefree choice for all kinds of occasions.

This was my first perfume ever. Light, zesty and refreshingly sugary sweet but not overwhelming! Doesn't change throughout the day and lasts an exceptionally long time. My boyfriend loved it on me; always asked me to wear it. I thought about getting the homme light blue for him but its just not the same. Like it a lot. A safe scent. Recommend it to those who keep it simple and sweet.

I sooo wanted to love this fragrance, however it did not work very well for my chemistry.
It did smell extremely great on my husband so I gave it to him! lol

It is a Unisex fragrance IMO and works very well wit his chemistry.

It just wasnt girly enough for my personal tastes.
Perhaps its the cedar?

I really don't know why? But I still love it and use it anyway coz it smells so good to me!

My auntie said it smelled like dirty armpit on her hahahahaha. That's a very bad comment though!

I think it's depend on your own chemistry. Nobody smells the same. But to me this perfume is my favorite and now I use the third bottle!

This a great everyday fragrance for when you want to smell fresh, yet pretty and comforted. I do not understand why some would say this is unisex; I would think oddly of a man that would wear this scent. I like how Light Blue is not sweet and cloying. Instead, it is a soft, citrus scent that has something in it that reminds me of a sea breeze. I love the ocean, so that might be why I like this scent a lot. However, Victoria's Secret Pink with a Splash in Fresh & Clean is pretty much a duplicate of Light Blue and much less expensive. Plus, I usually like fruity-florals when I can spray them all over my body, and the VS scent is more appropriate for that. It lasts long too, so I'll stick to that instead.

metallic, winterchill,cold and icy, very woman in careerish, not a scent you would wear if you want to give a impresson of warmth and intimacy.I was given this as a present but had to give it away. the metallic edge to this scent triggers my migraine at once.. my mom bought it unknowing of this and I had to ask her not to wear it when we meet.
Now my boyfriend´s sister wears it and how do I tell her that on the few times we get together It would be best if she left that one at home?!

This perfume is a summery clean, crisp perfume but has somewhat of a "powdery" drydown on my skin, which I haven't read happens to anyone else. I've been wearing a sample of this, and I probably won't purchase the full bottle. I think it smells pretty in the bottle, but does something strange on my skin. Oh, and it really is no big deal that this is popular and alot of people wear it. So what? Fragrances smell different on different people's chemistry, anyway.

Fine, fresh, delicate citrus notes makes me remember the passion fruit and watermelon :), but softly ...
It could be a subtle and lasting touch of fresh feminine scent to wear in relaxing moments...
I think it's a type of sexy breeze :)
Maybe common ... But even so smell nice :D
Good to the bed... and sleep :)
Suitable for summer days?: Yes ... and whenever you want, because for low temperatures are very fine too.

My boyfriend gave a sampler bottle to me on Valentine's Day (lol!) I love the colour light blue, but I've got to admitt this fragrance is very sharp, like alcohol - and yes, this was observed AFTER the first few minutes of spraying it. The one other thing I can detect is that it's a very "light" floral. I know other people like it, but it just doesn't work for me.

Generally a well rounded scent that most people can agree on.. it was special when it first came out but now it's lost its unique-ness as you can tell that it has become the basic generic form for many other new tweeked scents such as Dolly Girl by Anna Sui, the Escada summer scents, Abercrombie, and even the Paris Hilton scent is slightly reminiscent of Light Blue! Nevertheless, it's still a very popular scent that can be easily identified on people. It can go for every season but i think it's most suitable for the warmer weathers. This scent makes me very happy when i wear it. It's not a complex mixture of confused notes like Chance and it's not strong.. I would say that it's rather a more classic, gentle, clean, creamy, slightly fruity, and overall innocent scent. However, it's not the sexy, elegant, glamorous, musky scents. The lasting power is pretty good for a light fragrance like this. I put it in my hair at 7:00pm and can wake up smelling it the next day! It's something that i can wear without getting tired of... it's not headache inducing thank goodness! the only down side is that it's not as concentrated as i wanted it to be and also although this is a very agreeable scent it's still not the type of scent that would define who i am.

It's really refreshing with a fruity burst, an everyday scent. I think Moschinos I love love bears some resemblance to this one.

Light Blue is just not my thing. I really feel something 'blue' about it and for my taste, that's not exactly a good thing. But this is definitely a great quality perfume (besides being a commom scent) and I received TONS of compliments everytime I wore this. It smells like 'clean', which I really like and it's great for almost any occasion. Too bad I don't really like it :/
