Light Blue Sun

WOW! This is just beautiful! I've been on the hunt for the perfect citrusy summer fragrance and I believe I have just found it! It seems the fans of Light Blue dislike this. I am NOT a fan of the original but actually LOVE this. If you are looking for a true flanker of Light Blue, look elsewhere. This is practically a separate fragrance. LB Sun is very balanced, but don't judge it immediately. The opening is intense but short, it's the drydown that is heavenly. It has enough floral notes to keep the lemon in check, while the lemon is still shining through. The coconut is toasted, warm and nutty. The result is a happy, warm, comforting summer scent. . The longevity is average which is actually very good for fresh scents. Not sure if or when this will be discontinued but I will be stocking up regardless!

This smells like a very strong masculine scent. It's probably not hot enough for this yet cuz this just doesn't smell like the notes listed. I smell bergamot, pine, lemon, cypress, and lavender. It is sharp and manly 🤨😒and oh so strong! Even to my post COVID nose! This is a cousin to Laguna. It's a lemony type summer scent. Update: it's been miserably hot and humid and this has transformed into a beauty!!!! It's gorgeous 😍 I get that rose 🌹 and it's like fresh slightly musky... It is sooooooooo Good!!! I layer this with juicy couture bowdacious and it's a nice pair, the waft up so pleasantly... Also pair with dolce Vita... Mmmm so good! I can't believe how much I hated this and now it's a stunner! My oh my weather really does make all the difference when it comes to fragrances! 💗

Love this Light Blue flanker! It has a more tropical feel, while keeping the original Light Blue DNA. The addition of coconut and frangipani give this a creamier feel, but it is still a very light and fresh fragrance. I will echo what many reviews have said that the longevity isn't great, but if you apply over lotion and overspray, it has the desired effect. I personally am happy with that because I would only wear it during the day and switch to a deeper fragrance for the evening anyways. I have received many compliments from men while wearing this one. If you love the original Light Blue, but want something a bit more beachy/tropical, this is definitely full bottle worthy. 8.5/10 ❤😍

The original Light Blue was my very first perfume ever. A nice fresh scent, but it did not last long. I'm very happy I managed to get a 100ml bottle of this 'Sun' version for a good price, because it shares a lot of the same vibes as the original, but lasts longer, keeps the freshness, but seems more complete, more rounded. I bought it back in fall, but I'm glad spring and summer is coming around so I can wear it more. My current go to 'carefree happy' scent. At night I like to add 'La Nuit Tresor Nude - Lancome' on top, which shares the freshness and the coconut, rose and vanilla, as well as the happy feel, but makes it warmer, more concentrated and more seductive for nighttime.

I'll be honest, I didn't liked the original. I've received it as a sample (the original) when me and my friend were fooling around the shoppers market, we were given a free sample of the original by a kind worker. I gave it to my mom, I knew that she would love it. Now I wanted a perfume with strong citrus and possibly have some coconut, it was a little hard finding a perfume with that combination. Well lo and behold. When I bought this, I was worried about the comparison with the original, but I was instead blasted with the scent of lemon, with a side of coconut. You'll smell like lemon with a side of creamy coconut throughout the whole time. Lemon conquers all.

This is so great for summer. I smell a bit of the original Light Blue DNA, which I love, but Sun is sweeter, creamier, more floral, and less lemony. I love the added coconut, it definitely makes it more tropical, especially combined with frangipani. It's a light scent with terrible longevity, but still very enjoyable, like summer in a bottle. And I purchased it at a fairly steep discount, so I won't mind overspraying and/or respraying. Edit: the more I wear this, the more the smell reminds me of juice. It's pleasant enough, but I don't think I will repurchase. I think I like OG Light Blue and Love is Love more.

The more I wear it the more I’ve loved it It’s a sharp citrus & coconut Def has the original light blue DNA But with creamy coconut in the dry down especially on the skin... the Citrus freshness remains longer on fabric. It’s very likable and easy to wear casually, an easy go to. Doesn’t smell as expensive as other tropical fresh perfumes but I really don’t think it’s trying to... this is more of a relaxed perfume but still pretty & yummy & The price is fair for what you get Very much a California girl scent happy I got a big bottle because I do reach for it quite often even mid “winter” here in LA

Mmmm so yummy and fresh! Has the DNA of Light Blue but only a little. It's a refreshingly new take. The opening has a very juicy grapefruit note. That morphs into a coconut suntan lotion vibe. Smell your wrist and you'll be transported to a hot day on a Mediterranean beach, even if you're just sitting in your office! Super fun and summery. If you can't find Light Blue Sun, a similar scent giving you that suntan lotion vibe, but without the coconut, is Surf by Illume. (For an extra summery boost, Surf is great mixed with Palm by Illume...likewise Surf is also great mixed with Soleil by Illume.)

I love this one The top notes have the oh-so-familiar Light Blue DNA - sharp, lemony cedar- but then it melts into something so much softer- a slightly soapy sunscreen that actually smells much nicer than it might sound- reminds me of Golden Light Wood by DSQUARED- Unlike others, I am perfectly satisfied with the longevity and potency- it kept a nice little cloud around me most of the day- in fact, my 1 ml decant got me through three days! I was looking forward to finishing it yesterday, when my little bottle mysteriously disappeared- so bummed~ A perfect late summer scent! ..

I found a 100ml bottle for such a cheap price from this beauty. It’s everything I’ve been searching for summer. Coconut and lemon, it’s like a lemonade with a nutty undertone. The musk and coconut works together so well, it’s well balanced and fresh. It doesn’t project well, but I think it’s for the best when it comes to summer weather, I will not be getting a headache from this for sure. After one hour or so it becomes a skin scent but I can still smell this on me after 6 hours. I am layering it with Mugler’s Alien goddess Supra florale and it’s mouthwatering.

Coconut, Frangipani, and Bourbon Vanilla??? YES PLEASE! I have a bottle of this and love it. This is a spunky lil fragrance to wear during those sultry hot summer days! There's just enough of that Light Blue's lemon zest and granny smith apple to keep it bright and fresh, but the middle of it warms up much like its name, SUN! It's a little similar to the original Light Blue, maybe by 20%, but this one is coconutty, has the white floral scent from the frangipani, and the warmth of the bourbon vanilla on the dry down. Very unique and smells like summertime.

As a Light Blue fan after first spray I had to have it for summer! Although it doesn’ smell anything like the original DG Light blue you can pick up the dna. Here you have a lighter, fresher, airy version without the musk from the original, instead more lemon and coconut. What I found very dissaponting is that it does’ t last long on my skin and it would be so adorable if the scent was a bit more punchy and more filling with all these wonderful notes. Overall I dont regret buying it ’s fantastic for summer! 🍋🍏🥥🌴☀️ Scent 9/10 Longevity 6/10 Sillage 8/10

I wanted to test the original Light Blue since it seems like such a staple and I found it too powdery and old smelling to me. This was right next to it and figured I'd give it a shot. It smells EXACTLY like Soap & Glory's Magnifi-Coco line. A bit citrusy, a bit more coconut, some warmth and some white flower. I LOVE this scent. If it were made into a candle or car freshener, I'd be all over it. This is definitely a summer day smell. I hope to use it to layer with the magnificoco body wash and maybe that will help it last a bit longer.

MUCH better than the original! Light Blue Sun is a great tropical beachy scent with wafts of lemon, coconut, frangipani, rose, jasmine, and musk. I love it!! So yummy and delicious. Lacks the strong vanilla base of Guerlain Terracotta or the woody vibe of Bronze Goddess. If I had to choose between Bronze Goddess Azur (which I just returned) or D&G Light Blue Sun, I would take the latter. It's elegant, feminine, and tropical, like a piña colada on the deck of a schooner sailing through the tropics. Heaven!!

This is my favorite version of Light Blue, and the only one in my collection. Very summery and fresh obviously, and also a little sporty with those ozonic and citrus notes - but with warmth in the base that is very nice. It's actually pretty unique in my collection. Has a lay out by the pool kinda vibe. It has a citrus zing to it that is very uplifting and happy. I like to wear it when I know I'll be outside or on the go - like on a mini road trip, to the park, to the beach.

This smells AMAZING. Most summer perfumes are coconutty and overly sweet, if you're not a huge fan of that, you're gonna love this. Original light blue DNA with just a hint of creaminess although not as strong as I had hoped. I tried this on my skin and I love it, just wish it lasted longer on me. After 2 or more hours, I can barely smell it. At this point, I've settled to just overspray on my clothes because I love this scent so much but its longevity is just awful.

I love this. The first stage is like the original Light Blue but with the lemon amped up and less musky. It also leans more feminine than the original LB in my opinion. It’s freshly made lemonade on a sunny day. Creamy tiare flower joins for the drydown and this stage is really lovely, just pure summer holiday vibes. My only complaint is that the projection is light and it becomes a skin scent on me in under an hour. I like my fragrances with a bit more power.

Summer in a bottle: beachy, citrusy, coconutty, flirty, happy, fresh, and warm! Instant mood lifter for sure. Original Light Blue has never been a stand-out for me but Light Blue Sun is top shelf right now. I can't picture wearing this in any other season than summer though. Thinking of bikinis, sundresses, straw hats and espadrilles. Beach cabanas, adirondack chairs, daquiri shacks, mojitos, beachside hangouts... love, love, love this scent.

Smells like the original Light Blue with added coconut and tropical flowers. I like this one a lot! The bottle is gorgeous, too. It's so sleek and shiny and minimalistic. This will definitely be my go-to scent for hot beach days this summer. I just wish that it lasted longer, on my skin this only lasts for 2-3 hours and then it's gone. I don't really mind reapplying perfumes in summer, though, I just think it feels refreshing lol

I never cared for the original, when I read about the coconut notes I decided blind buy it and so far no regrets. It has the original notes but with salty/ozonic touches that I loved in a Summer fragrance, It reminds me a little to Replica Beach Walk in the dry down. Overall I'm enjoying it a lot, the sillage is moderate to strong on me, and stay on my skin over 6 hours. Summer-sun-beach love at first sight!

This is a gorgeous edition of Light blue. Here you have your lactonic notes given from the start, the coconut is very mild, I mostly perceive a chantilly cream/vanilla lemon custard in the base that makes the lemony zest oh so so yummy. This is the best flanker I have tried, and I have bought it twice. Looking for a back up bottle soon. If you want a LB with a gourmand twist this is the best option.

Found this while walking around recycle shops in Tokyo. I get around 5h of performance on my skin with my bottle batch. This is a juicy, creamy and almost drinkable sunscreen in a bottle. What takes this apart from Soleil Blanc, Beach Walk, Solaer, and other sunscreen-like fragrances is the airiness that Sun has. This last airiness makes the fruitiness and yellow floral aspects stand out cleanly.

Light Blue goes to the beach! This is one of my favorite fragrances for hot summer days. It is nice and light, which goes perfectly in hot weather. It makes me feel like I’m at my favorite tropical beach resort and sipping margaritas at the ocean view cafe bar, while the scent of frangipani blows in the breeze. Lovely combination of citrus, green apple, coconut and frangipani.

This is awesome! So sexy, vibrant, beachy, summery and low key edgy. It's very weak unfortunatelly, though with a reason, it is skin scent for the summer. I would love to have this as a intense perfume with longlasting effect and silage. Wonderful scent. It's very strange that I absolutely don't mind for any of D&G perfumes at all, mainly I despise them, but this one I adore.

Don ́t buy this for the coconut, I wanted a citrus fragrance, and this is exactly that, a good one.... but if I didn ́t read the notes I probably couldn ́t tell this slightly creamy summery smell is coconut. It ́s sweet but not too sweet, kinda just like a ripe lemon. Never had a problem wearing this even in the high heat. Great vibes and good memories when I smell this :)

If Light Blue is sucking a lemon, Light Blue Sun is eating a Clementine. I know the notes are lemon and coconut but the combination makes me think of those sweet little Cuties. I really like the dry-down with this one, too. Once the citrus wanders off, I'm left with a soapy white musk. I live at the coast so I'm biased, but this one might just become my year-round go-to.

I really enjoy this fragrance and so far I like this one better than the original. It's performance is way better and this just makes me feel like I'm out on the beach somewhere enjoying the summer breeze while sipping on Pina coladas or some other tropical drink. Perfect for hot and warm days. Affordable and fun. Will definitely keep this in my arsenal.

Light Blue Sun is a nice, light fragrance for hot summer days. I really like the addition of the coconut in this flanker which adds some creaminess and depth the original doesn't have. Not great lasting power on me, but for the price, it's a nice find. It kind of gives me TF Soleil Blanc vibes which is one of my all time favorites for summer.

I blind bought it as I love the original LB and I am a big fan of beach summer fragrances, so I figured, this will be a winner for me and I was right. Warm yet fresh, perfect summer fragrance. I love how well citruses work with coconuty note here. Another one to my summer perfumes collection :)

It was a blind buy and no regrets! I did not have the original Light Blue, tried it a couple of times and it was always too sharp for my taste. This one smells a lot like the original, but the coconut makes it creamy and in my opinion little bit more casual. Great summer fragrance.

I like this perfume, but it projects on my skin pretty weakly. However, the smell is perfect for Summer and not smell cheap. When it dries down, I can smell some warm citrus scent which impressive. And I got compliments from this perfume more than other ones.

Very yummy smelling no brainer summer day fragrance. Longevity and sillage are weak though, so I like to layer it with something with more oomph. Right now, I’m layering it with Elie Saab Le Parfum and I LOVE this combo for hot summer days.

Ozonic coconut lemonade; really sweet with just enough freshness to keep it breezy and non-cloying. Perfect for holiday, very tropical and absolutely perfect for summer. Good sillage and good longevity, around 4 hrs on skin & clothes.

One of my all time favourites, it smells like summery coconut citrus goodness in a bottle. It's playful, and full at the same time. I'll always hold onto this, have enjoyed it for 3 consecutive summers,

I love this. It smells like a vacation in a bottle. Omg it makes me feel so happy and cheerful and is perfect for the summer heat. I'll be wearing this a lot this summer. Love love love.

I’ve been wearing this perfume all summer long. You wanna wear this on hot days. Definitely a compliment getter. Citrus notes (Lemon) in the open, dries down to this milky coconut.

one of my favourite summer scents. you can smell the coconut, but it is rather dry. the lemony, citrus scent is similar to the classic light blue, very bright and refreshing.

Honestly, this smells so much better than the original. It is less citrusy and not a strong masculine smell. This is now added to my favorites collection.

This is like the most delicious and refreshing coconut lemonade!! A frappé one by the way. Love it. Sillage and Longevity are not the best tho.

freaking gorgeous!!! So similar to Creed's jardin di Amalfi with a coconut touch, and Alexandria boshetti de la costa.

Love this scent. I like it better than the OG. It's the perfect bright, aquatic coconut fragrance.

Light Blue Sun was an impulse purchase because of the frangipani mid note, but I also heard that this was better than Light Blue. While this does carry characteristics of the original that I found enjoyable, I can't help but be a bit underwhelmed. Much like LB, this flank fades extremely quickly and is hard to detect even with multiple sprays. It's almost like it's shy and trying to hide under the covers, which is something I don't want in a fragrance at this price point (even for an EDT). You of course get that zingy lemon zest top note like in LB, and Sun has a lovely white floral powder along with it which makes it a few hairs different. There is the coconut, but it is mild and also runs away before I can really get to enjoy it. The leftovers are a little warm but turn into mostly a skin scent. If the longevity and strength matched the price, I would think this was lovely. This may be my last D&G purchase, as they've struck out three times with me.

I was surprised by how similar this is to 4711 Sunny Seaside of Zanzibar, which had surprised me by its complete lack of bright notes and all-encompassing (verging on dull) warmness. Exactly as someone put it below, “too many warm notes crashing into each other.” The lemony, appley, ozonic freshness I had expected, at least for the opening, was nonexistent. However, I’m glad I gave it a few tries, especially with various mildly-scented lotions, because now I do get a tiny flash of lemon and/or apple right at the beginning and, while it doesn’t last long, I think it does add a much-needed sense of nuance to the base. It’s now a solid like for me as far as understated, calming daytime/bedtime/after-shower scents go. Very different from the zingy original, which I also like but haven’t yet been drawn in by as much as this quiet, unassuming version.

It's nice. As a person who doesn't like citrus, this is a good fragrance. A nice blend of creamy coconut and lemon, though the sweet and juicy lemon ultimately shines with coconut as a supporting note. The drydown also has a veerrrryyy slight aquatic/ambergris quality, which I like as my preferred summer scent profile is aquatic. The citrus is the same as whatever is in Light Blue Italian Zest and Moschino Cheap & Chic I Love Love, so if you have either of those you could just layer with a coconut scent and get the same effect (and probably better if the coconut scent is long lasting). I've only just realized I don't really like citrus scents personally but I do think this is a good scent (as in, hard to dislike or offend anyone), just not for me. The lasting power isn't the best, especially since the coconut disappears quickly.

This is my favorite version of Light Blue. It's softer and slightly more sophisticated and does not burn my throat the way the original EDT and EDP do. Reminds me of a tropical body mist and lotion from Victoria's Secret I wore religiously in my early twenties. It has the perfect coconut note to balance out the harshness of the lemon making this version of LB smoother and more inviting. Unfortunately, LB Sun's performance is criminal. I get decent projection for 30 minutes, but unless I spray this on my clothing, it completely disappears around the three-hour mark. Admittedly, it's not an extraordinary scent either, but really pleasant and perfect for hot, humid days. I'll enjoy my bottle while I have it, but it's not something I'd repeat purchase. Best to buy on sale as it is not worth full price.

I have the 100mL bottle. It's huge. I expected to love this, I've been a little over the original and was looking for something with more fun and excitement. This is not as strong, not great sillage, not great longevity. If you're looking for an upgraded Light Blue THIS IS NOT YOUR MAN. I really wanted to have something to enjoy casually this summer but it takes 10 sprays just to feel the presence, and by that time you're drowning in lemon. The coconut, if it indeed is present, is way too subtle and would add to the fragrance if it was more potent. I'm layering it now with heavier, sweeter things (Girl of Now, Viva La Juicy Gold) but maybe I can learn to enjoy it on its own. P.S. My husband loves the smell on me. It just isn't at all impressive as far as lasting or strength.

this is a good scent for me. blind buy, and sucesfull. i do have and love both original and intense. this is not similar to original to my nose, but very good scent on its own. this is definitely summer scent, salty, marine and solar, the way i like my summer scents to be. i am not able to properly wear it now, it is wrong time of the year, we still have lots of snow in my part of the world so it makes no sense to wear summer perfume. my only complain, it is very similar to Shiseido rising sun, which i already own and love, so i will have to see if one of those have to go, when the summer comes. i do not smell coconut, which is a good thing to me. anyway i am looking forward to summer to wear this a lot.

I'm addicted to all things coconut lately, and I've been stock piling every coconut fragrance that I come across. When I discovered this flanker of Light Blue had a coconut note in it, I found a bottle as quick as I could. Now that I have it, I must say I'm a little disappointed. I don't get much coconut at all. What I do get is the DNA of the original Light Blue, with an ozone/solar feel and a good dose of sea saltiness from the ambergris. Not a bad fragrance at all; it's refreshing, reminds me of the sun and ocean, and perfect for summer. It's different enough from the original to justify keeping, it's just not the coconut scent I was hoping for.

I wasn't too impressed by this one the first few times I tried it.....but, today, it's magical. Is it the hot and humid conditions outside? Is it the fact that today I totally oversprayed? Possibly it's both! Today, I am smelling a lovely scent, very reminiscent of the OG "Light Blue", but more airy and with a nice coconut running through it (and I am generally NOT a fan of 'coconut' notes, so that's saying something!!). I like it, but will be content just using up my decant, rather than buying more of it. I could see this being the perfect scent for a summer holiday somewhere by the water, with hot air and a kiss of breeze.

What a beauty for sunny summer mornings 🌞 I feel amazing wearing this. I used to love the original Light Blue in my teens but I never got a bottle, and now I recognize it on others but I wouldn't wear it anymore because it feels a bit sharp. But this flanker cuts the hard edges of the lemon with some coconut and a tiny bit of frangipani making it more elegant. Compared to Tom Ford's Soleil Blanc, it's less creamy, like if you have a lemon-coconut sorbet next to a creamy fluffy ice-cream. An easy grab for summer in the city or outside that sits close to skin which I really like.
