  1. ParfuMALE

    The new flag launches are a real find. Sweet with that ozony touch that strongly recalls Natura’s humor chemistry (you can feel the Blue Seduction DNA). Excellent performance and great projection. If you like sweet scents with a fresh twist, this is an unbeatable low-cost option.

  2. As others said, it’s a Blue Seduction with lemon; once the citrus top fades, the DNA is identical. It’s not bad, but if you already own both, it’s redundant. Only worth it if you need to refresh the original just to vary things up, though it shares the same flaw: poor longevity.

    Banderas took a risk with this late flanker, something dangerous for a classic, but they didn’t fail. It smells like creamy, aquatic lemon with lavender and musk that cleans it up. Reminded me of Creamy Aqua Dubai. There are better ones, sure, but for the price, it’s one of the best citrus value-for-money picks.

    A showstopper! Rich aroma, my summer favorite. It’s like a creamy little lemon pie. Lasted over 8 hours on my skin with moderate projection. Very pleasant and, considering the price, it’s a steal. I paid 36 bucks per ml. Recommended, cheers.

  5. Azariel_Nox

    If I had to define it in one word: boring. I didn’t like it. I expected something closer to the vibe of the classic AB Blue Seduction, but it strays too far from its DNA. The scent is different, but nothing enchanting or projecting. It feels very cloned, nothing spectacular to make me recommend it over the original. Without comparison, it smells okay but isn’t striking. 3/10. In the opening, it reminds me of a fresh YSL Y or Azzaro Wanted EDT (in the dry down).

    Identical to the original but more citrusy. I kept the other one. They’re both great scents. They don’t last long, but they’re cheap, so it’s just a matter of carrying the bottle and reapplying.

    It’s the same as the original but with more citrus. I’ll stick with the other one. These are great scents. They don’t last long but they’re cheap, so it’s just a matter of carrying the bottle and reapplying.

    It would be amazing if AB perfumes like this had decent longevity; they would be unbeatable.
