I believe the notes listed here belong to Aqua Blanc, whereas the website’s details for Blanc correspond to Bleu, as this fragrance lacks several of them. The most long-lasting note is the tobacco, typical of Blanc; there is no trace of raspberry or vanilla. For me, this is one of Carlo Corinto’s finest creations, and I have never enjoyed a similar scent. I bought it in 2008 at a ridiculous price, around $27, and I still keep the remainder because it has been discontinued. Surprisingly, it still smells wonderful and evolves beautifully; I reserve it for important events. The current French Riviera scents are aimed at a younger demographic, which is nothing like the original three: those were far more sophisticated, with better projection and longevity that lasted on cotton clothing until the next day. My golden dream is for Carlo Corinto to relaunch these fragrances, as Silver and Noir Intense are vastly superior to many of the current offerings.

I am from Mexico, and here the musk and cedar are the stars, while the vanilla is barely noticeable. The lemon fades away very quickly. Around here, it is incredibly cheap, ranging around $25.
