BLV has high quality and soothing deepness that caresses each layer with inviting warmth for each note. These are later replaced by the main star of the show – spicy ginger and galangal, accompanied by aromatic juniper accords. It's the fragrance the wife of a suburban middle aged man would like him to wear, because it's inocent and unsexy and safe.

The most noticeable notes in this fragrance are the wisteria note, the acacia note, the ginger note and the musk note. While we strive to provide accurate and helpful information, we cannot guarantee the complete accuracy or reliability of the AI-generated pros and cons. On me, it's rather linear, from the beginning till the end, it smells powdery with a hint of citrus. I know the date because I stuck the receipt in the box with the bottle and put it in my perfume display case. Also, as the name implies, this smells blue, but not the Bleu de Chanel dark, blues, blue but a vivid, almost turqoise blue.It inspired me to try other Bvlgari fragrances but remains one of my favorites, along with Bvlgari Pour Homme Soir, Black, and Aqva. I couldn’t believe how much it was projecting off of me three hours later and all I was doing was just sitting there.

I get lemongrass, a cool creamy base like face makeup or body lotion and the faintest hint of spice. When this juice dries down, I get a hint of Yves Saint Laurent's L'homme minus the creaminess and citrusness. Smells like freshly washed clothes but in a classy way like expensive hotel soap or Italian shaving cream. Bvlgari Blv is an interesting fragrance, all notes come up as featured notes, the fragrance projects equally, however, they are dull, as opposed to crisp and easily recognizable.

Unlike most fragrances, it doesn't use citrus for freshness, rather - it uses ginger, but retains no spiciness - the base is like baby powder, the sum total effect is very simple and clean. Once Bvlgari Blv Pour Homme Cologne Men EDT has reached its full dry-down, it can be summarized as a soft projection, slightly sweet, spicy, woody, green, and white floral fragrance. Transforms into a powdery floral which later on transforms into a creamy, lotion-type scent (Nivea-esque on me for sure). Unfortunately I am reminded of the lemon scented air fresheners that stick to the wall that were popular in the 90s.

This is probably best seeming that powdery ginger and florals don't usually work too well in large, loud doses. This smells as if a fresh cold windy day somehow ended up in a bottle of champaigne and brought along a few clouds, who are a bit confused as to what on earth are they doing there. They do become stronger in the drydown, but never does BLU lose its essentially aromatic quality, and the wood and the musk, like the flowers, adorn the aromatics, not the other way around. Then there is the slightly masculine which is more musky and non-floral making it very male-friendly but still holding on to it's softer side.All that said it is still kind of a simple fragrance, if you are used to more complicated ones this will be boring to you. After I sprayed BLV, all I kept smelling was ginger and bergamote and it unfortunately it reminded me of cheap men's cologne. I had this many moons ago, and I bought a full bottle just for the nostalgia, and also because I found a great deal online. Great office scent because it is not offensive at all, and you can lather it without worrying about offending anyone. I won't say it's the best fragrance I have ever smelled, but I enjoy wearing this more than any other perfume.

I am a jasmine lover, so a toned down jasmine is certainly wearable, even if this doesn't sing elegantly as a beautiful jasmine does. Someone mentioned old fashioned shaving cream, yes, I am reminded somewhat of that as well which allows me to believe this could be a unisex fragrance. Its none intrusive and i wear just one spray on the upper chest under work attire (i work in an office so i cannot be too offensive). The person below me said it smelled like clean sheets which I thought was an odd way of describing a scent, but I just tried Blv and it's a spot on description. I believe it’s much softer and quite a bit less woody or spicy than the notes on this page would suggest.It has garnered me more compliments than the rest of my fragrances put together, whether from friends, colleagues or lovers. Babama çok yakıştırırım ben şahsen) Zencefilin yanında kakulenin verdiği hafif bergamotumsu hava çok dengeli ve güzel işlenmiş. The only place I don't tend to wear it is at home - really an "out-and-about and meeting people" kind of scent.
