I bought my first 100ml bottle after trying it in a shop and falling in love; although I wanted the 200ml, I redeemed points for this one. It’s my first Antonio Banderas: fresh, clean, with that classic blue note that never fails. Ideal for everyday wear, the office, or casual outings; it has a subtle sophistication without pretentious luxury. Summer, sea, and guaranteed cleanliness. I’ve even worn it after a shower. A good blind buy, cheers.

If you’re looking for a 12-hour beast, forget this one. But if you want to capture the essence of an eternal summer with a vibrant blue that blends into the skin, Blue Seduction is the gold standard. Fresh, sensual, and totally honest.

I picked it up on offer in Santiago, 200ml for 20 pesos. It smells rich and summery, but on my skin it lasted about 5 hours; you’ll definitely need to reapply.
-

It smells like sex on the beach. It’s short but a legendary experience. You can overapply a bit to improve longevity, but it’s better suited for short outings away from home. The scent is exquisite and seductive, just as promised.

The packaging deceives and promises something decent, but it lasts as long as a sigh. Within minutes it becomes complicated and then unbearable; I had to wash my arm and the smell was still clinging there. It smells like sticky, synthetic watermelon and cheap perfume. More than seduction, it conveys adolescence, a damp locker, and economy deodorant. Ideal for understanding where not to go.
-
NachoMLG
Rich and fulfilling perfume, lasting about 4 to 6 hours with a good trail in the first hour. A very pleasant scent for daytime; I’d say it smells like a single dad, haha. Highly recommended and the price is 10/10.

The aroma has great potential, but it’s very weak and the projection is poor. If you use it, apply more than 15 sprays; it suffers the same fate as Nautica Voyage—the scent is good but you have to overapply a bit. I’ve received many compliments because of it. Before with fewer sprays, I couldn’t even smell it yourself. You’ll feel fresh and clean, it’s for daily use, but the performance falters. Buy the 200ml and apply it without regrets.

Years ago my sister gifted me the version with the sky-blue liquid and I used it a lot. Years later I tried a sample in a bookshop in Chile and, what a surprise, now it’s blue and lasted over 6 hours. They’ve reformulated for the better; I bought three bottles. Maybe it’s cheap, but it smells excellent, especially for summer. It’s an olfactory experience, addictive with melon, citrus, and wood notes. Screw those who say it’s low quality because it’s cheap; an essential in every perfumer’s collection.

Divine, but the longevity is abyssal. It’s a very good perfume, a pleasure to put on just to feel the scent, but it lasts at most an hour. Not a good buy.
-
Jeronimoposadag
I recommend it for trips to the country estate with the family; it smells a bit of ham to me, I’m not sure why.

Spectacular aroma. It’s a freshness bomb. It doesn’t last anything these days, but few perfumes feel so fresh.
-

Well, as they say around here… Yes, it’s very economical, but it remains a good perfume. People with a good nose know how to spot the details, and I can assure you this fragrance has earned me compliments. It radiates freshness and cleanliness, and that coffee note makes it slightly more versatile with an exquisite and charming scent.
-

It’s an all-rounder. It’s one of those staples that you can’t do without. Certainly, it’s a mass-produced fragrance that many people might wear. I’ve repurchased it twice and it always saves the day. A fragrance for everyday wear, cheerful and friendly.

Batch 50311 from March 2025, 200ml, lasting more than 8 hours on skin with projection and sillage over 6 metres after a generous application, of course fading slowly from the initial burst. Obviously there was a positive reformulation as previous batches didn’t last more than three hours on skin. The fragrance is fantastic, suitable for all climates and situations. That said, the ‘experts’ who rate the notes should do their translation homework next time, as watermelon is not melon de agua, it’s watermelon. It’s very evident they aren’t experts, nor do they even know how to use Google Translate. The perfume smells basically of watermelon and coffee, all wrapped up in something very fresh. A must-buy, especially given the price.

I bought it and didn’t like it… It has a cheap, catalogue-like aroma… I only use it to go buy bread… Not recommended.

Right, gentlemen, I’m back as usual to show you and stop you from saying nonsense around here. To start, this thing costs $40,000 for 200ml, so don’t come expecting something ridiculously expensive, because it isn’t… that’s what I’d say if I had more than 23 pairs of chromosomes, but the truth is that for $30 this is madness. The scent is very stylish; it’s a mint with a little melon, ah ah ah, which literally got me more compliments than fragrances costing four times as much, so you realise they hit the mark there. Continuing, it was known there had to be some issues; the sillage is quite moderate, so you only feel it if someone is sitting next to you (not necessarily bad for that, if you want something like that, it’s like a pineapple). On the other hand, what I do say is that the longevity is a letdown; it lasts one hour and no more, so when I go to university I have to carry it with me and reapply between classes, otherwise I end up smelling faint. In conclusion, if you’re looking for something cheap that smells good for everyday use, I recommend it; for the price it’s an 8-9/10, but if you can afford something more expensive that lasts longer, you should do that. Say hello and send kisses to their mums from me.

Very fresh perfume, not overly sweet and quite light. Perfect for daily use in warm climates. Average longevity, light projection. An economical fragrance that is worth the money.

JoelHK12
Important notice: I bought one yesterday, batch 2025 from seven months ago. I can say the performance has improved; I sprayed four on my wrists, six on my neck, and it’s noticeable. I tested it at the gym and my sister said she could smell it, that it was spreading around the gym. As for the longevity, I have to test it further, but five hours is certainly guaranteed, perhaps more.

A very rich fragrance, and that’s what it is: a rich fragrance with pleasant notes that most people like. It’s an intimate fragrance that stays only on your skin; it projects almost nothing, unless you’ve just applied it, of course. Its longevity is low; personally, I got about four hours, and the last hour was only perceptible by sniffing the application area closely. I recommend it for all ages, as it’s a perfume that could be said to ‘just smell good’ and nothing more. It’s rich, fresh, salty and marine; it conveys a sense of cleanliness, perfect if you want to smell good without the need to project too much. In my case, I noticed quite a bit of the salt and marine notes, which predominate, with a distant melon (or watermelon). As for the coffee note, it blends too much with the melon note, feeling like a very fresh melon with that slightly creamy touch of coffee. If you concentrate well, you can smell the coffee better. Anyway, nothing sexy, nothing innovative, nothing powerful… simply clean and delicious.

It’s one of the best-selling fragrances at major busy airports, as with the trend of your luggage not arriving and wanting a fragrance to tide you over without spending much, these are the ones that always have a ‘discount’ in duty-free. A fairly acceptable fragrance, but it is universally known they last a breath, yet at duty-free prices you can’t ask for much. Fresh, summery, fulfilling in its short life and cheap; you necessarily have to carry it in your backpack or briefcase to reapply. If you want to survive the day smelling decent, you might have to use at least a quarter of the bottle in the best-case scenario.

It’s incredible that everyone votes melon when it smells like watermelon. That happens if you know nothing about fragrances or English and translate ‘watermelon’ literally. It’s fascinating to see how people expose themselves. Apart from that, it smells of watermelon and coffee with milk. The 200ml bottles usually come in at $20-25, so its short lifespan is compensated by reapplication. Now it performs less and projects for an hour, but with generosity you can reach 10 hours on skin. Watermelon is watermelon, not cantaloupe.
-
javier cabeza de perfume
Exquisite fragrance, but its only drawback is that it fades very quickly; don’t wear it in the wind, just forget it. Ideal for enclosed spaces and heat, though it lacks longevity and projection. On dry skin, it lasts at best two or three hours, so it’s only worth it if you’re prepared to reapply.
-
twinx.yk
One of my first perfumes. Fresh, sweet, and very pleasant for hot days. It’s the best of Antonio Banderas in terms of quality and price, giving compliments without being offensive. It has its dark side: it doesn’t last or project much. It’s low-key, for someone calm who doesn’t want to attract attention.
-
demianA
Fresh and slightly sweet for summer. Melon predominates with a touch of bergamot at the start, leaving aquatic mint and freshness as it dries. Sometimes you note the apple subtly. The blackcurrant and woody notes are merely testimonial, adding body but contributing little. Performance is correct, around 4-5 hours (then it lingers on skin depending on the day). Personal projection, don’t expect much. For the price, it’s very good; I got the 200ml for 13 euros, so little more could be asked. Ideal for going shopping or running errands.
-
JuanCanada
With over 130 perfumes in my collection, this was a disappointment. It’s not a bad scent, but nothing enchanting or spectacular. It’s half-sticky, sweet, uncharacteristic, and boring. I imagined it more virile and charming as Antonio Banderas projects. Here there’s nothing of that, though you can’t expect the best for the price. If you’re new, you might like it, but if you already know the fragrance world, don’t waste your money. Pass it by, you won’t miss anything. I see it as suitable for teenagers aged 13 to 17.
-
Rick Azafranado
Exquisite fragrance, one of the best for summer. A pity regarding its performance, which is far too weak and mediocre. However, given the price, it’s totally worth it. I bought it for under $15 with the body spray included, so don’t be afraid to reapply. Just buy a decant and you’re sorted.
-
AnthonyClassDJ
I tried it on today at Carrefour after seeing a video… to be honest, I’m not a fan of these perfumes, especially regarding their longevity and how alcoholised they can smell. But this one I liked; it reminds me greatly of my beloved 2018 Dior Sport, I’d say it’s about 80% similar.
-
Cazaputas42
In my personal opinion, it is the best from AB.

I hate this perfume; nobody liked it. Some even associated it with a damp smell, and I ended up throwing it away.

campeones22
I tried the D&G Light Blue (the women’s version, supposedly unisex) and realised I already knew it… It’s the Armani Blue Seduction, which smells very similar to Versace Eau Fraiche. In the end, it’s the same thing.
-
alexg1990
I’ve been using it for years; its marine, aquatic, and aromatic notes make it very enveloping and the scent is excellent, earning you plenty of compliments. If only it lasted a little longer… I feel that in recent years AB perfumes have declined in projection and longevity. Lately, I use it after a shower or keep a decant in my pocket, as it doesn’t last more than an hour. Please, AB, more projection and longevity for this gem!!
-
dre1ik
I received it as a small gift and the truth is, it’s not bad at all, but I wouldn’t recommend it. I have little to say; I can distinguish many notes but I’m incapable of feeling the damn melon, so what stands out most is the bergamot and a bit of mint. I’m not asking for anything incredible for the economical price, but the experience needs to be clear. Like other citrus scents, its longevity is terrible and there’s nothing left after drying down (1-2 hours). Although they share the same problem, I’d recommend buying the Carat White or Dark Door Sport instead; although they focus on different citrus notes, they have a slightly superior scent and projection for the same price. Update 12/01/2026: Indeed, there are better perfumes for the same price.

Very rich, but it doesn’t last. Scent: 10/10, Longevity: 3/10, Sillage: 5/10, Versatility: 4/10.
-
Dizzy_gl
A rich fragrance, ideal for blind buys. Fresh for hot summer days, perfect for casual outings, shopping, or staying at home. The only downside is that it doesn’t seem to last long, or perhaps I lose the trail very quickly, but despite that, it’s a brilliant perfume.
-
Moralejas
In my opinion, as my first fragrance, the Antonio Banderas scent is very common. I can’t detect the mint or sea notes; the woods and cappuccino steal the show. On very hot or intensely cold days, the smell becomes invasive and uncomfortable. Although the longevity is disappointing, at $20-25 there are more peculiar and less common Arabic options. It’s a classic that hasn’t held its ground as well as it once did.
-
fresita55
Marine, aquatic, fresh and fruity fragrance, with the melon note standing out, very rich, but with low longevity. Ideal for the gym.
-
budamartello
From the low-cost range, it’s among the best there is. Excellent choice for everyday wear, the office, or the gym, or if you just want to smell good. Fresh and clean. The longevity matches the price (4-5), the sillage isn’t invasive but when you smell it, you feel it. Worth every penny.
-
FabCa
A rich summer perfume, for daily use, clean and subtle. It was my signature fragrance for a while until it ran out. The scent has four main notes to my perception: watermelon alongside marine notes, and in the dry down I smell a green apple accompanied by mint. Later it becomes slightly sweet but doesn’t stand out for its sweetness. It has a major problem: longevity; with luck, in an enclosed space it reaches four hours and in open spaces three, no more.

gomezj95
How much hate and idiotic comments does this good little perfume receive, offering so much more than its price demands? I ask you: have you ever tried the Y EDP? That overhyped perfume that only smells of artificial apple and spice, costing 4 or 5 times more and lasting barely a bit longer? Or the ADG Profondo? Which is very rich but disappears from the radar in 30 minutes and costs quadruple… I want to believe that the ignorants commenting don’t contribute to the overblown status of those fragrances, because otherwise they are hypocrites. This is a fresh and fruity perfume, for daytime use in almost any weather. It essentially smells of a fresh, juicy melon, very pleasant. What is synthetic? All perfumes are. None comes with natural juice or herb extracts. Simply, some smell better than others and this has a simple but very rich aroma. It doesn’t have good performance, lasting a maximum of 4 hours and projecting for the first hour, but it costs $15, gentlemen… How many designer fragrances have terrible performance, quintuple the price, and are copies or discontinued versions? This is the ideal perfume for everyday wear in temperate climates that you can wear without fear of wasting it because it’s extremely accessible. It’s an extremely pleasant, sweet yet fresh aroma. For what it costs and offers, call me silent on the compulsive trash-talkers who surely later buy any hype-filled rubbish they see on YouTube.

It became unbearably sweet, with melon and apple notes predominating. I imagine that between 15 and 25 years old, that aroma would be ideal, but to me at 35, it became impossible to wear. Daytime scent, not very formal.
Category:
It’s a slightly masculine scent and I find it very synthetic. It smells fresh, of melon, citrus… I don’t know. It lasts about three hours and then it all evaporates. I wouldn’t buy it again.
I love it! It’s fresh, elegant, jovial and unconventional. Unlike fruity florals, acidic with an old smell or too cloying. A bit masculine yes, but it has a softness that makes it feminine. I love men’s perfumes, they smell delicious. This fragrance gives us the opportunity to wear something unconventional, with that masculine touch but adapted for women. I love it. It’s a good option, an alternative to CK One, which is unisex.
I’ve never liked it. I was given it at Christmas years ago and it’s still there. I use it as a room freshener in my bedroom and haven’t finished it yet. I find it very heavy, I wouldn’t recommend it for men or women. It doesn’t smell of anything.
I tried it in the shop and liked it for being fresh when I sprayed it, but I didn’t use it much because it made me feel dizzy. It’s very citrusy, almost marine, but it’s not for me. I gave it to my mum and it suits her perfectly. Later my mother-in-law saw it and adores it; she says she loves men’s perfumes and this has that unisex touch.
I’m crazy about it! It smells young and fresh, plus it’s a bargain.
I LOVE IT! It’s a very fresh scent ideal for the heat, but it has a tiny sweet touch. It has a brilliant longevity, it’s for daytime use, youthful, fresh, it makes me happy.
Delicious! On my skin it smells just like Light Blue. Every time people asked about my perfume, they were astounded by my answer. No one believed I was an Antonio Banderas!
I bought it at a brilliant bargain because I like aquatic and slightly masculine perfumes, and I haven’t liked it at all. I don’t identify with it and it causes me stomach discomfort… that’s the worst. I can’t use it from the atomiser and they’re 200 ml.
I like it immensely and am surprised because not all its notes take my fancy to begin with; the melon, which I hate. Nevertheless, its scent seduces me quite a bit. It’s hard to explain, I feel it’s fresh yet deep at the same time. I was given it at Christmas, the mini mini 15 ml version about four years ago, and it still smells good, and yes, I would buy it again.
I love them; they catch me off guard but don’t drive me mad. It smells of autumn, so I wouldn’t wear it in the height of summer. There’s something warm mixed with something vaguely fresh, it’s androgynous, neither summer nor winter, neither too sweet nor too fresh, with love and hate very much in hand.
It was a gift and I did not like it at all. The performance surprised me because it lasted a very long time on my skin, and since the scent did not convince me, that made it worse. Contrary to some comments, I did not find it very feminine; it had more of a soap or bath product smell.
It does not stand out too much on an adult woman; it is a fresh, calm, and soft sweetness. It is ideal for girls who are just starting in the world of fragrances. Perfect for summer and casual meet-ups with friends.
I bought it recently, but upon trying it, it reminded me of Natura’s Quimica de Humor; they share notes like violet and benzoin at the base, which makes them smell like men’s fragrances in my perception. It is true that each has its characteristics, but at the start they are very similar, carrying more character of Quimica de Humor. I don’t consider it very feminine; I think it could be unisex.
I know many say it is very masculine, but for me it is feminine, with a unisex touch. It seems more suitable for a woman than a man. I found it super delicious and fresh, citrusy as I like. Ideal for a summer afternoon because it is not heavy. I liked it very much and it is much more wearable than Queen of Seduction, which has a pink pepper note and in summer with much heat, personally I don’t like it.
It is a rich fragrance; people have praised it because on my skin it smells like an expensive perfume. It’s crazy how every skin reacts differently. I don’t feel it is masculine at all, quite the opposite. Although it is predominantly aquatic, the citrus of the bergamot is noticeable, followed by the flowers. I perceive some artificial note, perhaps an aldehyde, but without excess. The fruits are more towards the opening. I would classify it as citrus-aquatic and floral. On me it has very good longevity; I have felt it last up to 10 hours.
I wore this fragrance today and initially hesitated to buy it. It feels fresh, herbal, and musky, very clean. The trail is moderate and noticeable. On my skin it lasts a maximum of 6 hours; afterwards I can’t smell it, but with air currents it is still perceptible and I don’t know from which part of the body it emanates. I am satisfied with the scent and performance for its cost. I recommend it totally for hot and fresh days.
I gifted it to my wife and she loves it. It seems feminine to me; although the opening is aquatic, after a few minutes the floral note becomes noticeable, which is exquisite. It has good trail and longevity, and the price is very good.
Antonio Banderas’ adverts always tired me out with their ‘secrets’ and ‘seductions’ for kings and queens of mambo; I didn’t pay attention and now I regret it, as their feminine fragrances are almost non-existent in physical stores. I stumbled upon Blue Seduction at an outlet for almost nothing. I thought it would be a summery splash like Light Blue, but there is hardly any resemblance; Blue Seduction is much more interesting. The first few seconds are balsamic and herbal, like Manila elemi, which is already worth it. Then it becomes fruity with pears and raspberries tied together, anchored in musk, patchouli, and woods with hints of peony. I adore the raspberry: it’s an elegant strawberry and a happy fruit embrace. I appreciate the pear more here, and the combination is a triumph. It has multiple facets and dries back to being balsamic. I don’t feel it is marine or light, but it is suitable for any season. I’ve been wearing it for about three weeks and it’s a delight, although spring hasn’t arrived yet. Fabulous is not quite the word; it lacks a qualitative leap, but the trail and longevity (6-7 hours) are worthy. It was a nice collaboration by Olivier Cresp, Rosendo Mateu, and Elisabeth Vidal. Along with it, I bought Her Secret; they are ‘outsider’ fragrances from the era, with lots of wood and little sweetness, showing some boldness, especially Her Secret, which I enjoy more. It’s a pity my prejudices prevented me from knowing them before their decline.
I bought it after wanting it for years. The price is incredibly cheap compared to my other perfumes, and there is something I absolutely love. It has a light air reminiscent of Light Blue, but for me, this Antonio Banderas one is better: sweeter and less soapy. It feels fresh, ideal for someone light and uncomplicated. Perfect for everyday wear, work, or a quiet outing. Recommended.
Blue Seduction for Woman was my first perfume back in 2013 when I was 15; it brings a certain nostalgic touch because my mother gave it to me back then. To this day, I remember this perfume with great affection; from time to time, I buy it because it’s an exquisite fragrance, fresh, and feminine. Most importantly, it doesn’t tire the nose as it’s a soft, citrusy, and marine aroma. Ideal for spring/summer.
Starts with citrus and musk, moderate yet striking. Over time, on my skin, the sharp bergamot, peony, and a subtle raspberry take over. It smells similar to Guess Double Dare, but here the bergamot is definitely noticeable and the musk leans more towards vanilla. Guess is warm, while Blue Seduction is fresh. The base note is similar, though one is warm and the other is citrusy.
I’ve used it since it launched in 2008; I simply can’t imagine passing a summer without it. It’s fresh, clean, fruity, sparkling, cheerful, and feminine. Its longevity… oh! surprise!! 6 hours on skin and up to 10 on clothes; for an EDT, that’s more than good. 100% recommended HOWEVER it has one single flaw… it only smells good in heat; I don’t mean pleasant warm days, but real heat, unbearable summer; that’s its ideal climate. Because in fresher weather, it smells terrible, like damp clothes (when you wash your laundry and forget it in the washing machine for a couple of days). That’s why I love it, because it only screams SUMMER with all its might, and I never get tired of that shout <3.
I tried it yesterday at the perfumerie because Antonio Banderas managed to keep his audience thanks to the quality of his fragrances (that’s what I read). I left the shop and continued my journey on a bicycle on a fairly hot day; the aroma floated nearby and I fell in love with it. Today I finally bought it, discovering it’s by Olivier Cresp; no doubt, a perfume that makes, a perfume that I like. Now I’m writing this review with this beauty floating in my room; it certainly screams summer, smelling like pineapple nectar and the ocean. Unisex, a man could certainly wear it. On its first outing, it smells like Starwalker by Montblanc and then turns into a unique aroma; I managed to find what I’ve been looking for in men’s perfumes, ‘a feminine touch’. Longevity on skin: 1 hour. On clothes: 3 to 4 hours. It needs to be replicated.
On me, it smells fresh yet sweet; I don’t know how to describe it, very tasty and on me it has extreme longevity, so much so that sometimes it gives me a headache.
I received it as a gift in a 10ml vial. Honestly, when I saw the packaging, I hesitated to use it; it didn’t inspire me, so I left it in the dressing table for several days without much thought. However, one day I dared to spray it because it was all I had and I was in a rush to leave. Wow! It left me speechless, what a delightful aroma. The first sensation is that it’s summery and fresh. I recall that day I was going to an outdoor football match, so I didn’t need anything ‘sophisticated’ or elegant; Blue Seduction was a good choice. The composition indicates flowers and fruits, and on my skin, the fruity notes stand out; I like the fresh feeling. After that first pleasant impression, I continued using it to accompany my little ones to their football matches. Given the three noses behind it, I decided to buy the 75ml version. It has excellent value; I use it for informal occasions and outdoor events with informal or sportswear. For price and quality, I do recommend it. Longevity on skin is 3 to 4 hours, but for the first hour, the projection is very wide. After that experience with A. Banderas, I decided to buy another from that house that I also enjoyed: Her Golden Secret.
I’m not surprised the nose behind it is the same as Light Blue by Dolce & Gabbana, but truly, neither of them lasts, which is a pity. It’s very fresh, less citrusy in my opinion than Light Blue, but fantastic if you want to save money or use it as a daily fragrance.
Super unisex, becoming sweeter and more feminine before returning to unisex. It’s rich, simple, and a great buy for hot days if you find it on offer or if your budget is tight. Very soft, clean, slightly floral, with nineties vibes and that sugary low-cost touch that doesn’t quite reach the heights of Anthony. Your seduction is blue with a beachy hint and it’s very well done, but if it’s Blue Seduction, it’s rich yet only lasts 3 hours 🥲. It reminds me of Pacha Ibiza; Be Insane is a bit more floral and sweet, with a slightly less low-cost feel but not by much. It’s an aroma I’d prefer for deodorant rather than perfume.
Honest review: I bought it blind because I needed something and went for the budget option. At first, I knew it was summery and fresh, reminding me of a late afternoon at the pier on a dock. It can be confused with Dolce & Gabbana’s Light Blue (though they aren’t the same). It’s unisex. On my skin, the trail doesn’t last at all; I can smell it initially for a maximum of an hour. Others notice it, but I can’t smell it after 40 minutes. It has excellent value; I paid $29 for the 200ml bottle. Longevity depends on pH; my friend gets 3-4 hours and the trail is noticeable when walking or greeting people. It’s good for gifting. It doesn’t disappoint; I like it but don’t love it because, due to my pH, it barely lasts.
Simple and fresh for hot days, I see it as unisex. It smells tasty at first, but then feels quite powdery. I use it in casual, informal situations. It doesn’t last long on the skin nor does it have much projection.
A lovely unisex scent, fresh and sweet, perfect for summer. It boosts confidence and has a seductive edge. For an EDT, it has impressive potency! Ideal for a lesbian who isn’t a fan of typical ‘man’ perfumes. To me, it screams queerness.
They gave it to me as a gift, I like it very much and I use it for everyday wear. Very frequent and lovely. I detect a strong raspberry note in it.
They haven’t given it a more fitting name; it’s like a blue seduction. Although they recommend it for daytime, for me it’s more of a night fragrance, for spring and summer nights. It’s very versatile and could be worn daily, but it has such a seductive edge that I recommend it more for going out at night. Feminine or unisex? It’s both at once; I don’t know how they managed it, but I love it. It doesn’t remind me of other perfumes; it’s original, another point in its favour. Oliver Cresp never disappoints; it’s a scent that has made a mark. It’s a BBB: if you like blue scents but with a sweet touch, you must have it.
I’m a man, and when I smelled this fragrance (by mistake, it was my first time trying the Antonio Banderas brand), it was a very pleasant surprise. I bought it automatically because of how exquisite it is; then I saw the bottle with the pink cap, and to be honest, I feel it’s quite unisex and excessively pleasant, with a fresh, neat, and very agreeable opening.
One of the first perfumes in my collection and highly praised. I love this scent even though I usually buy sweeter ones. It doesn’t last as long as I’d like, but for the price, it’s brilliant. I bought the 200ml bottle at great value. 100% recommended.
They reformulated it and increased the patchouli. It smells stronger, sweeter, and more ambered than I remember, almost earthy, like something burnt. After 30 minutes of drying down, it reminds me of the taste of aspirin. I don’t want to say anything negative about the perfume; I’ve always loved it for its aquatic and soft side, but this time the base has much more strength, cancelling out the freshness. Strange… the tester was already worn, which isn’t surprising. Edit: on my skin, it resembles a version of Nuit Tresor: raspberry, patchouli and incense, but much less intense.
I first encountered this when I was young and I want it back now because I have many sweet and potent perfumes, but few suitable for spring and summer. I perceive it as aquatic, with just the right amount of sweetness to lift your spirits. Ideal for humid days, neither too cold nor too hot. I really like it; I’d even wear it after a bath because it smells so clean. It doesn’t have a huge sillage, but you notice it when people greet you. It’s a lovely aquatic-floral with the performance of an EDT. In my country, it’s super accessible and ticks all three Bs: good, beautiful, and cheap.
A fresh and floral fragrance, delicate and soft, very rich without being invasive or cloying. Ideal for women aged 25 to 35. Slightly musky with a barely perceptible fruity note. Perfect for summer nights or everyday wear; it’s versatile, though not for winter or autumn. The longevity is disappointing: after six hours, there’s no trace left. I think it lasts at most 2–3 hours, so you need to reapply. It’s rich and zero effort, so I recommend it for spring and summer days.
On the skin, it opens with fresh, elegant patchouli, while the peony takes centre stage, adding a feminine and vibrant touch. Ideal for going out dancing at dusk or in spring and summer. It’s floral-fruity, sweet but moderate, clean and luminous, almost unisex. The bottle is a triumph: it looks like a pool with ceramic reliefs that shimmer in the light; even tilting it to see the ‘waves’ is part of the experience.
I’ve had this for years. When I first tried it, I loved it, but over time I noticed it becomes quite unisex. It’s rich, easy to wear, and perfect for summer thanks to its freshness. The price is excellent and very accessible.
I’ve just bought this and absolutely love it. At first, I thought it was very masculine, but after 30 minutes, it smells sweet and fruity-floral. I like it and will try wearing it during the day; I wore it last night to see how it evolves on my skin.
