...somewhat patient girls at the Dolce & Gabbana counter where I came upon their "Light Blue" eau de toilette.
Product
Launched by the manufacturers in 2001 and recommended for daily use. Light blue is an extremely refreshing and light tangy fresh smelling eau de toilette spray. Once settled the fragrance boasts subtle musky hints of apple and jasmine. Having done a bit of research around this as some of the other ingredients are hard to distinguish, ... ...product also contains Sicilian Citron, Granny Smith Apple, Bluebells, Bamboo, White rose, Jasmine, Cedarwood, amber and musk. It is not over-powering when first sprayed like so many of these products are. When you dispense it small amounts come out so you are not completely drenched in perfume. Packaging
The 100ml variety comes with an outer light blue suede effect box which is soft to the touch, featuring the company logo and the name of the perfume ...

Advantages: Nice smell Disadvantages: Slightly more expensive than most perfumes
I spotted this perfume a couple of weeks ago. Had a sniff and wasn’t sure what I thought about it – I liked it but I didn’t know how much. So I thought the best thing to do was to purchase a mini version from eBay (£3.50 for 4.5ml) and give it further testing. Now I know that miniature versions aren’t economic but if you are like me who get bored which things quickly and likes to change things frequently they are a good buy – plus they last a surprising ... ...expensive stuff putrefying all over the shop.
Anyway, back to the perfume…
Looks wise, it comes in a flocked turquoisy blue box with silver writing on it. The glass bottle is clear and has a simple tall rectangular shape. It has a silver and blue rectangular top. The effect is smart and sophisticated, but not very sexy. If you like your bottles elegant and elaborate you probably won’t think much of this.
Right, the whiff….
It is described as ...

Advantages: orange like smell, refreshing Disadvantages: none for me but not to everyone's taste
Dolce and Gabbana light blue is a mixture of citrus and apple aroma which creates the most refreshing perfume that i personally have ever used.
Previous to smelling this perfume as a tester in Boots one saturday i was never a perfume wearing girl, as i dont like overpowering scents that you can smell for miles when you walk past someone or vice versa.
For me this scent was different it was refreshing and a pleasant citrusy? smell that did not get ... ...Dolce and Gabbana light blue comes in three different sizes 25ml, 50ml and 100ml ( i also now believe that bodycare does a 2.5ml handbag size bottle for £2.99, great for slipping inyo your bag on a nightout or even your work bag!) The price of the perfume varies according to what size you want and these are £18.50 for 50ml, and £24.99 for 100ml at Fragrance Direct on the Internet
£20.00 for 25ml, £26.99 for 50ml and £48.00 for 100ml at Boots

...sometime) and I had spotted Dolce and Gabbana Light Blue. So on December 23rd, I received a small bottle of perfume! Yay!
~*~ Packaging ~*~
The bottle came in a Light Blue (natch) box. It had a lovely suede feel, and silvery-gold writing stating it's name and amount. I love that box, it feels so luxurious. Upon opening the box, I found a rectangular bottle, very neat and simple. It again, stated it's name, and it had a blue lid and clearish bottle. ... ...which you can smell the scent though. Which brings me very neatly to the next topic!

...it - Light Blue by Dolce & Gabbana!!
The scent itself is floral and citrus mixed together. When you first put it on you can really detect the orange scent but after a while this calms down and you are left with a really clean and delicious fragrance that lasts for hours.
I really enjoy wearing Light Blue because it always gets lots of complements and people are always asking what the name of it is. Once I was stood in a petrol station and a man ... ...it was! How many perfumes are there on the market that have that kind of power...not many I can tell you!
The packaging is quite plain but effective, and this suits the product itself, as it is very subtle and delicate with the silver script and the frosted bottle.
I would even go so far as to say this perfume is a modern day classic and I for one will definitely always have a bottle on my shelf.
The price of Light Blue varies somewhat so it is ...

Advantages: Light fragrance, smells nice. Disadvantages: None for me, I like it. Won't suit everyone.
...really excited because it's the Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue perfume I ordered just 2 days ago after reading a review on Ciao!
THE PACKAGING
The box is a light blue colour, quite appropriately! It appears to have a suede-like texture and is very plain with silver writing. The outer cellophane is sealed with a round silver sticker with Dolce & Gabanna printed across it in blue writing the same shade as the box. Look reassuringly expensive so far!
... ...and very different. I like it.
The bottle inside is lovely. To my surprise it fills the majority of the interior of the box, rather than being largely packaging, like some other brands. It is a rectangular, slightly opaque glass bottle with a silver band with the spray button and a rectangular blue lid, which is actually lighter in colour that the one in the picture. There is silver writing on it, echoing the box exactly. It's a beautifully simple ...

I first got into this perfume about 4 years ago, and it has stayed a favourite of mine ever since. I was looking for a new smell, and being a perfume label-addict I went to Boots to find out any recommendations. The woman at the counter pointed me in the direction of this. I liked the smell as soon as it was sprayed. It is a sort of clean, fresh, slightly light musky smell, but I think smelly a bit fresh air and cottony as well! The assistant suggested ... ...it smelt after it had faded a bit.
Even a few hours later the smell still lingered and many people have commented on the nice smell hours after spraying.
You can buy this in 25ml, 50ml and 100ml. It's obviously cheaper the bigger you buy. A rought guide for prices are £15 for 25ml, £23 for 50ml and £30-£33 for 100ml. This always depends on the shop. I used to find Boots were really expensive for this, buy Semi Chem and BodyCare were about the £32 ...

Advantages: Lovely smell, get lots of attention! Disadvantages: -
Men - Hands up if you've ever wondered 'Should I get her (whether it be your girlfriend/wife/mother) some perfume?... Which one will she like?... There's so many to chose from?... What's the difference?'
Women - When it came to opening the present and saw it was perfume - hands up to any woman who thought 'Oh good god... He bought me perfume!'

Advantages: Cheaper than other perfumes, gorgeous "smell" Disadvantages: Bottle is a little bit dull
I've been using this perfume for about 4 years now and it is still my favourite (it is my equivalent of Chanel No 5) and other people seem to love it as well. Two women in my office bought it after I told them what it was. It is a light fragrance and despite how much you spray on, it will not give you the "drowned in perfume" effect. This does not mean that its staying power is weak - I just think it is a non domineering smell, thus the name "LIGHT ... ..."sweet shop" element to it, although it is still grown-up despite this.
The bottle is uncomplicated, and to be honest, not that noticeable. The lid is blue and the bottle is an oblong shape, but its simple design appears refreshing amongst the endless rows of fancy, colourful bottles, which seem to try too hard.
The price isn't too bad either - it is available in Matalan and is inexpensive compared to other perfumes. Ironically, Christmas is ideally ...

Advantages: Lasts all day Disadvantages: May be too strong for some
I first sampled the fragrance Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue for women after receiving it as a gift for Christmas one year. I absolutely fell in love with this perfume and it often reminds me of Christmas time when I wear it now.
Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue is packaged in a rather basic, rectangular frosted glass bottle with a light blue lid at the top. It is then packaged inside an attractive velvet textured light blue box. This perfume has a sensual ... ...too. This perfume will stand the test of time and one application is enough to last the day. However it is probably not as accessible as some perfumes and may be for an acquired taste rather than a general one.
I reserve this fragrance for special occasions and cold winter days. It is definitely one that I would recommend however I would suggest that anyone considering buying this perfume goes and samples it first. ...

Advantages: versatile, refreshing, elegant Disadvantages: perhaps not for evening wear
I fist smelt this when one of my friends elegantly whipped out the bottle and wafted it over herself in a graceful Audrey Hepburn like spaying motion.

Advantages: long lasting, light frangrance Disadvantages: can't live without it
This perfume is a must have item in my opinion for any female. I got my last bottle for around £15 from semichem - bargain! It's quite big too, I've had mine for about 5 months and I wear it most days, theres still over a third left in the bottle. Its light and refreshing eau de toilette. It was launched in 2001. It is a light floral fragrance with a blend of flowers and fruit: apple, bluebells, jasmine, bamboo and white rose. There are so many layers ... ...amber and musk. Because it is such a fresh and light scent - it works best in the summer. I long for the sunshine so that I can cover myself in this delightful perfume.
When I wear it I always get comments like "what is that gorgeous smell you are wearing?" Its suitable of every occassion, day to day wear and evenings. I prefer it during the day, however if I wear it in the evening I use the body creme as well as the perfume and this creates a more ...

I'm the sort of person who practically lives in jeans and tracksuits. For awhile I've been searching around for a fragrance that would complement my casual wear.
Anyhow, I found it. D & G Light is increadibly light, not at all overpowering and more importantly doesn't give me a headache!!

Advantages: Smells lush, classy and lasts all night long! Disadvantages: I use it all the time now, Im totally hooked!!!!
Dolce and Gabbana Light Blue, is truly my all time favourite perfume. After investing in some from smelling it on a friend I am truly hooked. The scent is very powerful, one squirt is all you need of this limey, classy fragrance. The scent alone is quite hard to describe, although I would say its more of a young and trendy perfume which I agree is suitable for both day and evening wear. The body lotion is also very lush, and with the application ... ...Light Blue all over. My boyfriend also loves this perfume (well he must do as he bought me another bottle last Christmas!) I would also recommend that you just buy the eau de toilette as this is more than enough, although the parfum is stronger and lasts much longer - i think the toilette is strong enough and I find that after applying it in the morning, I can still smell it in the evening! The perfume is truly beautiful and is suitable for all times ...
