    It lasts all night and has great projection. Smells incredible; for this price, nothing comes close.

    It’s the definition of a blue fragrance, very similar to Bleu de Chanel. I recommend it for everyday wear: a rich scent that turns heads without being overpowering or boring. It’s perfect for me.
