Blue Moon Ginger Dash

Quite underwhelming. Sure, it smells nice. If you are looking for a slightly more refined, smoother Acqua di Gio edt then this is it. You could throw a dart at a TJ Maxx fragrance bin and hit something that smells similar to this for a tiny fraction of the cost. I really wish a brand like Louis Vuitton would take a crack at this dna, they really know how to take a fragrance like this to that next luxurious level. Beautiful bottle, though! Just gorgeous! **UPDATE** Ok, after several straight day of wearing this, I have to admit this stuff is pretty awesome! It has a woodsier/acquatic smell I reallllly like, and the surprising thing is that despite wearing this in high heat, it has surprisingly good longevity. I'm sorry, Blue Moon Ginger Dash, I judged you too hastily and I think you are a very good fragrance to wear especially out in the heat. Gonna have to pick me up a bottle of this!! **UPDATE #2** I've done it...I've added this to my top 5 out of the 600+ bottles/samples I own. Just wow! This is my new favorite summer time fragrance. Just blown away at how this transitions throughout its lifespan and am still very surprised at the longevity I get out of this. Absolute picture perfect summer fragrance! Bravo, Kilian, bravo!

Remember the old school designer aquatics that you had to respray every few hours? Specifically, Bvlgari Aqva and that seaweed note in profondo lights? Well, Blue Moon is an olfactory trip down that memory lane, but with longevity (two sprays on my wrist and its still prevalent 10 hours later.) You'll instantly recognize the watery watermelon and seaweed notes. Those eventually morph into a subtle ginger and some sparkling musks which are the star of this show. There isn't any fish or other funky notes, disregard the haters, theyre lying to you. And hour into the wear, this actually starts smelling fantastic in the air. In 2005, this would've been the Rolls Royce of those popular aquatics that never delivered any performance. In 2023, I can probably live without it at this price point. Perfect for spring/summer Unisex - drydown leans slightly male Opening - boring throwback to aquatics Drydown - amazing Longevity - 12 hours swear to God Projection - 3 hrs then personal scent bubble

If I would’ve listened to people on this forum I would’ve missed out on the best from the liquors line I absolutely love blue moon it arrived last week and I must say it’s fruity fresh with a hint of vodka and something else I just can’t put my finger on it. If you would take vodka on the rocks with roses on ice you get blue moon! The crazy part is I don’t like vodka on the rocks or roses on ice but blue moon is the perfect balance of the two it’s not sweet its just fresh juicy fruits on my skin it’s very unisex but my husband think it’s feminine but he’s weird like that but he said it smell good though. I regret not buying two. If you get the opportunity don’t sleep on this one because it’s a limited edition you don’t want to miss out on this gorgeous fragrance and the bottle is just beautiful. I am glad to make her my 24th bottle even though I would’ve had 26 but I gave my husband vodka on the rocks and straight to Heaven.

Yes. It’s expensive. I get it. But it’s fantastic. I think 70% Y Eau Fraiche and 30% Platinum Egoiste. It’s a beautiful union of the two. And it definitely out performs both. That makes it worth the high cost to me. My Y Eau Fraiche barely gets used because it’s overspray the shit out of it or it’s gone in an hour. My Platinum Egoiste gets used a lot more but doesn’t have the zesty cold lemony smell this has that I love. A freshie that performs well is super hard to find (take some notes Creed). This fits the bill. Absolutely zero regrets buying this and will always have a bottle for spring and summer use. Edit: I’ve gotten more compliments from this perfume than anything else I wear. No idea how this can be rated so low unless haters are hating on the price. It’s mass appealing, inoffensive, obviously niche quality greatness. Haters gonna hate what they can’t afford I guess.

This is a wonderful freshie. I love this scent. I think the bad rating this has on fragrantica is due to the calone note, which is extremely subjective. Ive heard some finds this fishy smelling. I dont get that at all - i get an extremely fresh, watery citrus. Its unlike anything ive smelt, its almost too fresh. Get your nose on this asap, its incredible. Some people also finds this boring, but i really dont get that. It smells so lovely and unique. This is an exclusive summer fragrance in my opinion, it’s way to fresh and bright for spring. As for the performance, it’s a little dissapointing. It sits close to skin with moderate longevity. It’s definetly an oversprayer It’s a little pricey but if you want a unique and fresh scent for the summer and have a good budget definetly cop this one. Also the bottle is the most gorgeous bottle ive ever seen

#1762 in my “Tour de Fragrance” Continuing my exploration of ginger scents. Looking at the “Reminds me of” section above I clearly appreciate this one more than a lot of people given the 3.89 rating, but comparing any Kilian to Nautica “Voyage" is just cruel. I’m not a fan of the barely mediocre performance of Bvlgari’s "Aqva Pour Homme Marine” or Kenzo “Homme Sport”, but I like thos scents, which come closer to this than Nautica. I’m surprised there’s no mention of popular similars like Armani "Code Sport”, YSL “Y Eau Fraiche.” But Le Chameau “Desert Angel Blue Night” is an actual clone of this scent. That would be my low cost alternative. This Kilian is certainly better scent-wise than all of the above, but not $200-300 better. Good Luck and Good Hunting!

Summer in a bottle! I love the combination of the lemon and ginger in the opening. After a while that Calone kicks in giving the fragrance a watermelon aquatic feel which is my favorite part of this composition. I can see myself wearing Blue Moon to the beach here in Cali. Is it worth the price? I think so, you're getting a beautiful bottle with beautiful juice. It's not the most mind blowing fragrance but it doesn't have to be. Its definitely not a clone of any of the designer fragrances people are claiming it to be. I wish it lasted a little longer but it has mild projection and longevity which i'm fine with. Overall I highly recommend trying Blue Moon. 8/10

I really enjoy this fragrance - what makes it unique for me is that calone ( i think ) note - it makes this sparkling spring summer fragrance a littlebit masculine. It feels like its adg profondo + little bit of creed green irish tweed and bois du portugal. Fragrantica users bash this pretty hard but i really enjoy it. I dont regret this buy - my cup of fragrance. Perfomance is really good, like some users have already pointed out. I sprayed 2 sprays on my wrist and worked behind computer, next day i went to my computer desk and i still could smell scent. Pleasent suprise! Pricepoint - 210 euros ... I leave this up to everyone decide.

I genuinely enjoy this one. The only thing that I can find a dislike with is a 90’s smelling pine scent in the background. Other than that, it has a nice salty lemon watermelon opening with a salty and musky dry-down. This stuff lasts on my skin too. 8 hours in to my workday today, someone stopped me and asked what I was wearing, with only applying 3 sprays. I am still picking up wafts of the fragrance. I also enjoy the “vodka” or “on the rocks” feel. Blue Moon has more of a prominent vodka and on the rocks feel than VOTR. I’d give this a solid 8.5/10. This will definitely be a spring and summer staple in my collection.

Blue Moon Ginger Dash is one of the freshest and most refined fragrances I’ve ever owned. It’s a sparkling mix of lemon, ginger, vodka, and soft ambroxan — like a luxurious summer cocktail in a bottle. I first bought it in Copenhagen, later found a sealed one from Printemps Paris, two from Sellpy, and an authentic bottle from an influencer in Germany via eBay. Every bottle smells identical — bright, clean, and effortlessly elegant. Longevity is around 8–10 hours with moderate projection. A rare, ultra-limited gem that perfectly balances freshness and sophistication. — ClausGA

Ridiculously underrated lovely scent. Such a good creation that it must have been painful for this not getting the hype it deserves. This is like an Acqua Di Gio meets Jimmy Choo ice kind of scent, but done so well you can tell the ingredients used are refined and smooth. If you are a freshies person and have all the usuals ( Sauvage, BDC, Elysium ), this is a good twist to add to your freshie collection. I love this scent and most definitely should be getting more praises than it is at the moment. Oh and a plus, it lasts longer than your usual fresh scents. 9/10 for me.

Sparkling fresh and crisp Lemon ginger cocktail on a base of musk, aldehydes, ambroxan, with a subtle touch of mint. So pleased to have found a suitable alternative to a very under the radar fragrance from Clive Christian called Miami Poolside, only released as a travel spray set. MP scent concept is drinking a yuzu mint mojito at the poolside. BMGD shares a lot of similarities to this concept, sparkling crisp tonic, bright invigorating lemon, piquant ginger, with a clean airy base of musk and calone. Really love this summer forward scent.

Positano . Sunny and hot summer day . Dinner under lemon trees . Ladies dressed in light summer outfits . The waiter brings a sparkling cocktail, the smell of which mixes with the fresh sea breeze and the aroma of ripe lemons , ginger and tonic with a light gourmand sweetness . I sprayed it yesterday on my wrist , it’s still smell after 12 hours , skin scent . Very unusual combination . Totally unisex . Fresh and zesty aroma . Perfect for spring and summer .

From the first spray, I knew that this perfume will be my summer favorite!☀️😱💦 The ginger and lemon notes plays so well together, and it smells like a luxurious, ice-filled Blue Lagoon cocktail with a splash of vodka and blue curaçao liqueur!🤫🍋🔞 Refreshingly cooling, a real pleasure! 💦😋 So, if you are already preparing for summer or planning a vacation - Blue Moon Ginger Dash is my recommendation!☀️✈️🤫

Sample this and it smells mad good. Smells like a watery cucumber infused drink with some ginger 🫚. The watery nuances I actually like in this because it doesn’t smell have that wet dog smell I get from calone. This literally just smells like ice cold water, but with citruses and ginger. I’ll definitely look into getting a full bottle of this

Blue Moon is fantastic. One of the only long lasting freshies that stays fresh and doesn’t turn woody. You just got out of a cold shower and you’re drinking ice water with lemon. Unfortunately, Blue Moon is absurdly expensive (255$) and there don’t seem to be any discounters. If it wasn’t so expensive, this is a 10/10 fragrance.

Smells great.. if you like votr you will like this one .. has some votr, but with a little bit more of a Boozy quality as it dries down as well as some ginger and citrus.. will be perfect for the summer. Price is up there yes.. but I guess for people worried about that they can wait on their clones

This reminds me strongly of 2008 CK One Summer. Strong Calone, mint, and citrus. Although I've never smelled 2015 variant, 2008 CK one summer and 2013 summer were similar if not the same. Stronger sillage, and longevity compared to CK One Summer of yesteryear.

Waited almost a whole year to try this and I finally did. 100% lived up to my high expectations of it. Truly beautiful icy and sparkling citruses, reminds me of iced tea a lot. Super fresh and amazing.

This is criminally underrated.. this scent is a masterpiece for a summer freshie, it does not have anything that resembles a deodorant. People sometimes surprise me on Fragrantica.
