Perfume Review: Dolce and Gabbana Light Blue

Oh glorious glorious bottle of perfume, how you've touched my soul, my senses, my life.

Okay maybe I'm over doing it, but seriously by far Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue, has been my all time favorite scent since I first discovered it. Period.

My sister was the one who first introduced me to the scent. She said that it smelled like hamster chips, and handed her bottle off to me. I fell in love. How could she not like this stuff? Granted it smells a wee bit like hamster tank....it also has fragrances that no other perfume has ever captured.

Cedar-wood with a refreshing and uplifting hint of citrus. Combined creating the most wonderful scent my nose hairs have ever risen to.

Besides all that yummy nose tickling goodness, Dolce & Gabbana Light Bluelasts, and lasts. A small spritz to your jacket, and the scent will stay all day long, and will even be recognizable into the next.

Overall:

Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue is a wonderful outdoorsy fragrance. While it is rugged, it is at the same time, also very, very feminine. A truly uplifting scent. I recommend it for everyday wear.

Will not disappoint.

Dolce and Gabbana Light Blue Deodorant Spray

When I first came across Dolce & Gabbana's Light Blue Deodorants, I was thrilled, yet at the same time nervous to make the purchase.

I have a loving relationship with my Degree bar deodorant, and hoped that switching over to Dolce & Gabbana wouldn't upset my pits. They are picky... the littlest change could cause them to cry! Hah!

I went ahead and purchased the Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue Deodorant Spray for Women, even though I found the price to be a little absurd. Dare I fill you in on how much I threw down on this stuff? Okay...call me crazy, but I dropped nearly $40.00 on the 5 ounce spray can.

Yep...spray can. The Deodorant Spray is your regular ol' aerosol spray can. Although I have never been a fan of spray deodorants, I still HAD TO HAVE IT when I came across it.

Scent:

I was hoping that the Deodorant Spray would have that cedar wood and citrus scent that Light Blue has. The Deodorant Spray did have that initial scent when I sprayed it, but like anything that comes from an aerosol can, it also had that smoggy hair spray like after scent to it.

To be honest, I was not very thrilled with it, but I still liked it. I did however wish it didn't have that chemically undertone to it.

My Use:

I sprayed some under my pits, and made my way out to work.

I smelled fresh and delish, and not a bead of sweat had formed. Then at around noon, I felt my right pit begin to cry. Yep! Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue Deodorant Spray sucked.

After my right pit began to cry, my left pit must of felt sympathy for it, because it too joined in on the cry fest. Ugh! Wet pits! Great!

Overall:

The Light Blue scent is off due to the chemicals in the aerosol can, and the spray offers absolutely no protection to sweat.

I'd say put on your regular deodorant first, and then the Light Blue Deodorant Spray, but seeing how it is so expensive, I can't even recommend it for that purpose.
