Versace pour Homme Dylan Blue
Versace (2016)

Impossible to fault as a definite one bottle for life fragrance, but I absolutely detest the AdG Profumo undertone. If you can handle the stinky incense note, then definitely go for this.

To me this a very simple fragrance. Blue, blue blue, all the way through. It is smooth and the notes in each phase tend to 'cancel' out any peeking through and the ambrox really keeps everything in check and linear. I don't really feel the need for multiple crowd pleasing 'blendy blue' frags in my collection, so this covers that base for me, and I do prefer it over Eros. It is completely versatile, safe, all ages, all climates/seasons, and borderline axe/laundry detergent generic. However there is a market for that, especially with it having solid performance. This may all come across as negative from an artistic/collector standpoint, which is true. I am not, however, negative on Dylan Blue. It just means I like it, but it's not a 'love' and I'm not attached enough for this to be required in the collection long term. It's likely a one-bottle fragrance for me, but still a thumbs up.

Versace Dylan Blue is very versatile. This fragrance works great in all seasons. If you where only going to own a single fragrance, you might want to give this some consideration. Also the price point is great and the performance is above average in my opinion.

DB has that Bleu de Chanel vibe. Not bad, but being that I have BDC, I wouldn't purchase this one (unless it was a very good price).

I can't fault it really in and by itself. It's a nice, elaborated on aquatic.

At times I feel it's too close to Axe/Lynx aquatics (e.g. Phoenix, Click) although the difference in class is certainly there.

For me that's mainly because I get a nice combo of ambroxan and white musk fortifying the whole thing. Besides a nice floralness too, which should be the violet.

Still, I think I prefer Le Male in the Navy over this though. I would not want to be mistaken for wearing an Axe/Lynx product. Therefore a neutral in stead of a thumbs up.

This is one of my most popular throw on scents, very versatile with great performance. The only issue with this is it's very similar to a handful of other fragrances, which makes it a crowd pleaser fragrance. Still.. there's nothing wrong with that, it's definitely a favourite of mine.
