Light Blue Pour Homme Summer Vibes

Summer Vibes brings the Light Blue line back to its roots. I am a big fan of Light Blue Eau Intense so I was excited for this release. The opening is unmistakably similar to Light Blue Eau Intense, rather than Light Blue Forever or Italian Love. Gone is the grapefruit note, which has been replaced by a pleasant green note. The green note reminds me of Acqua Di Gio EDP although not quite as sharp. As it dries down, the Cypress becomes more pronounced. Summer Vibes has toned down the sea notes but hasn't completely removed what made Eau Intense great. The added green notes make it smoother, less sharp, less salty, but no less fresh. The smell reminds me of being in Italy, walking through a lemon grove perched up on the cliffs above the sea. Performance seems to be good but it is not as long lasting as its predecessors. That said, more people seem to notice this one on me compared to Eau Intense. Some may find it too similar to Eau Intense to warrant a purchase. Nevertheless I would say that the added green note makes Summer Vibes more versatile and balanced. The bottle is beautiful and deserves mentioning. Overall, an excellent addition to the line which will be great in the high heat of the coming summer.

This is Light Blue reinterpreted in a blue genre instead of an aquatic. Gone are the ocean accords and replaced with a lot more ambroxan, ISO E Super and patchouli in the base. The opening smells very close to Versace Dylan Blue and then bit and pieces of the Light Blue DNA starts coming through in the mid. The dry-down is very ambroxan heavy. It's really a big departure from the typical citrus heavy opening that has made Light Blue so iconic. This smells like it is more related to ADG Profumo and Dylan Blue than a Light Blue flanker (Alberto Morillas did made those two after all), where the citrus plays a supporting role. Projection and sillage are mild-moderate and longevity is above average. I can see Dolce and Gabbana trying to cash in the successes of the blue genre where K failed. IMO Light blue Eau Intense is still king.

Light Blue pour Homme Summer Vibes embodies the essence of a summer vacation along the Italian coast. It is vibrantly fresh, with prominent green cypress notes that evoke the sensation of sitting by the seaside surrounded by cypress trees. Light and well-suited for hot weather, it shares approximately 60% of its DNA with Light Blue pour Homme Eau Intense, yet it carries a greener and more invigorating character. The fragrance offers moderate projection and longevity, making it subtle and non-intrusive. The bottle features an elegant, rectangular design reminiscent of the classic line but is distinguished by a traditional Majolica print in blue and white, turning it into a work of art that reflects authentic Italian heritage and craftsmanship.

In my opinion, Summer Vibes is the kind of fragrance you wear for yourself just to enjoy or to smell clean if someone happens to get close enough. It has a very intimate sillage with low projection, so it’s not a loud scent. But honestly, it smells incredible to me. It feels classy, elegant, and masculine, with just a touch of playfulness. The opening hits with a sweet lemon that blends perfectly with the cypress. For me, the mid and dry down stay pretty consistent. Slightly soapy, with a vibe that reminds me of the tea note from Imagination, and faint whispers of that sweet lemon from the start. To put it simply: Summer Vibes is a classy/safe scent that will offend nobody.

A lot of the reviews are giving this an "ok" or "dislike" rating for the wrong reasons. It is true that it's very similar to eau Intense, and that it's very much a variation on the original Light Blue. However, when reviewing a fragrance I think it's important to consider it on it's own. While I have used many Light Blue variants in the past this is the only one that I own, and I give it an 8/10 assuming that you don't already have Light Blue. I think it would not be worth buying if you already have LB, but its 100% worth it as your only one. It's very woody and casual, but it doesn't smell cheap or generic. A great fragrance for the beach, or a day out with friends.

It’s very light, very intimate, I couldn’t smell anything at all to begin but once I allowed it to oxidise on my skin it was unmistakably very pleasant. If you feel nauseated by very fresh or overly sweet smells then this is perfect for you. I have the pour homme intense which has that additional pop and peppery bitterness to it but the silage on that is massive compared to this. The bottle and box are artistic pieces in themselves, ill be using this as aftershave for my neck after a trim as the aroma of this is genuinely lovely and my usual is a sprits of Bleu de Chanel EdP but this I really like to cleanse the pallet. I’d even like to see an eau de parfum of this.

I am surprised by this one. I always loved the LB flankers and everyone hated on this one - especially for the performance. I actually found it to perform better than the OG LB and not that far off from the Intense. I only ended up buying it for the bottle - and it is lovely. It kind of reminds me of the new Light Blue EDP. Summer Vibes is pretty citrus heavy. Smells more orange to me than lemon. These are down to $35 shipped on ebay if you know where to look. At that price, it is a must have for a collector just for the bottle alone. Solid pickup. Will be used in place of my OG LB bottles. Gotta savior the good ones!

A masterpiece in mass appeal. It has a beautiful lemon note that leans a little dry, rather than sweet and juicy. It has a surprisingly realistic Cypress note which I really really enjoy. (Those are two of my favorite notes) In general this is a good performing, mass appealing, and ultra versatile scent. It can be worn anytime of the day, at any occasion, in any season. I get so many compliments on it (age range for compliments mostly around my age 17-20 so definitely youthful). I actually stopped wearing it for some time because it was my signature for so long and I think I'll go back to it soon.

If you want to smell nice in the summer heat and don't want to worry about a fragrance that is too distracting or powerful at work or traveling in an enclosed space with others, then Summer Vibes is a good option. It has the Light Blue DNA but with a more simplistic approach. If Light Blue Pour Homme was the Goldilocks and the 3 Bears story: Summer Vibes would play Baby Bear, the Original Light Blue would be Momma Bear, and Light Blue Intense would be Poppa Bear. Who would be Goldilocks? Light Blue Sun would be her. Longevity is about 4-6 hours for me with 8 sprays before it becomes a skin scent.

So good. Opens with a lemon that is clean and airy, rather than sugary sweet, but it does take on a salty mineralic Eau Intense nature with a hint of sweetness late open from what I believe is juniper berry. The sensation is one of a forest by the sea and even though it's not listed I swear I am even smelling a fig tree. It finally transitions to a prominent, slightly earthy green and woody cypress, drying down to a warm musky amberwood base. I have heard that the Italian Love men's flanker is like this with a little extra twist, so I'll need to get that as well because this is a love.

Picked up a bottle today at Macys. Summer Vibes smells similar to Gucci Guilty - Love Edition and Light Blue OG. The funny thing is that Summer Vibes smells like how bottle looks! 🤣 I get a nice aromatic cocktail of lemon, earthy/green notes and musk. Thus far performance seems to be solid yielding 6+ hours. The last two Light Blue releases are a lot more daring and unique IMO. Nonetheless, Summer Vibes is a solid release and will be an excellent addition to a guys summer rotation. As most people have said the bottle design pattern is 🔥🔥 Overall: 8.5/10

Tested it today. Nothing new in the market really, but it is the first D&G that I like. Does not have this kind of heavy aroma all the male D&G have. Citrusy, green (pine vibe, never smelled a cypress tbh) and when it dries down, a soft wood comes out, similar to the wood in Dior Homme EdT, giving it a more masculine vibe. I'd say it was made to attract the masses. Beautiful bottle, mass appealing aroma, fresh and easy to wear. D&G just trying to make money for the summer. Its nice, would buy if I had no other fresh or summer scents.

Probably the best light blue I’ve smelled yet between Pour Homme, Intense, and this one. I get compliments on the pour Homme and this one a lot. I remember wearing the pour homme back then when it came out and it was instant compliments. Same as this one. This smells different but with the same dna in the background. It does not give you no damn headache idk what that guy below is talking about. EDIT: You can still smell this on your clothes the next day. Been wearing this almost everyday and women love it.

Has the atmosphere of having pasta in a small town in Italy in the midst of summer, while wearing a white linen shirt, shades, and sipping on a glass of wine. I don't usually like Cypress too much, but this one is crisp and aromatic. The whole fragrance is an ongoing, entertaining interplay between the elements that make it up. It has "motion". Also, I'm getting some great performance out of it. One of the fragrances that others around me actually detect and compliment.

This is a decent fragrance to have in rotation for the warmer months of summer 🏝️ and spring 🌱. I get all the notes that are listed and I like the opening quite a bit 👍🏾 and this fragrance will not offend anyone in any way so if you want to over spray this like I do then it's totally ok with summer vibes. Great price on discount websites but please avoid paying retail for this fragrance. Projection and sillage is moderate and I get 6 to 8 hours of longevity

I'm so happy I found this!! It's a terrific dupe for my dream perfume of all time, Ode on Melancholy by Gucci!!! Its sunny and happy but also deep and mysterious, spicy and woody, yet bright and not to heavy. It also does not have that generic mens perfume smell at all, its original and personal. If you want grown up but fun, deep but light, expensive but down to earth, you might like this! I really hop you do because I want them to sell this forever!!

I bought it because I love the bottle. I had zero expectations, and I find it quite nice - very close to Costa Azzura and Eau Intense. I definetely smell lemon and cypress, making it more suitable for men. On my skin longevity is good, but sillage pretty low. I will see the performance when the heat will go up: I think it will do very well on hot Italian summers, when you only want to smell fresh (and everything smells heavy and cloying).

Very good clean summer scent. I usually dont purchase summer fragrances as much since the citruses used give me headaches, but i smelled this one and for the first time in a while felt like it wasnt too overpowering and knew i had to buy it. I love the drydown, its quite sophisticated and the cypress blends in very well. Longevity is good about 6 hours on my skin and moderate projection of about an arms lenght with 4 sprays. Overall 8/10

Fffffffffk, now people is talking about Costa azzurra, I bought this bottle when it was released here in Mexico and I instantly realized that this is similar to Costa Azzurra parfum but this one is more sweet and Costa azzurra is more luxurious and better quality. I mentioned this before but none said a word about it

This is going to be my go to summer scent, a strong lemon open that isn’t synthetic or smelling like any sort of cleaner. Not big on projection or super long lasting. While having a simple scent profile I think that’s what makes it an even more appealing summer daily driver and mass appealing. I really do enjoy it!
