The review
On paper, The Blues is a reasonable bet if you want Jazz for less.
The Dua Brand sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Jazz's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength The Dua Brand publishes, the price per 100ml, and how firmly the match is claimed. How it really smells on skin is what the votes below are for.
What it's built to smell like
The original opens on lavender, bergamot and lemon, turns to jasmine, geranium and cinnamon, and settles into vetiver, sandalwood and leather. That is the brief The Blues is working from.
Top
- lavender
- bergamot
- lemon
Heart
- jasmine
- geranium
- cinnamon
Base
- vetiver
- sandalwood
- leather
A powdery lavender fougère from the tail of the eighties, striped bottle and all.
