Blue Touch

* Refreshing and long lasting * Cool blend of citrus, herbal, aquatic, fresh, and slight wood notes * Identical in aroma and quality to Acqua di Gio EDT * Excellent price point * Good performer * Designer quality for discounter price * High QPR value * Great for warmer weather * Unisex * Good for all ages and all occasions * Good for those who dislike modern sweet fragrances but don't like fougeres * Lots and lots of competition in the citrus fragrance market * Nothing unique to set it apart from other citrus fragrances (a la Sedley or Maahir Legacy) Blue Touch is a nice refreshing citrus forward fragrance that should immediately remind you of Armani's Acqua di Gio EDT. They are quite literally indistinguishable, I have sprayed both on and can attest to this. This is great if you love Acqua di Gio but not the price point. Night Touch is a cooling blend of citrus, herbal, aquatic, fresh and slight wood notes. It's got very good performance, is unisex, and good for all ages and occasions. It's also good for those who dislike modern sweet fragrances such as the Paco Rabanne Invictus or 1 Million lines but don't care for dry green fougeres like Paco Rabanne Pour Homme, either. It's got the exact right balance between the two styles. This has a great price point and is an absolute no brainer for citrus fragrance lovers. You really can't beat its price point and it gives high QPR value for the dollar with high quality. Really, the only knock against it is that it doesn't add anything to set it apart from the ton of other citrus fragrances on the market, such as a stronger green note the way Sedley and its clone Maahir Legacy do. Still, what you get for your dollar here is comparable to designer quality citrus fragrances. Definite recommend.

HA, this gets heavily compared to AdG! They say this is very much like it. Well...since I have never had AdG but I do have this (go ahead, check my profile.) I would not know what AdG really smells like and I suppose..I never will have to because I HAVE BLUE TOUCH!!! I very much like the Franck Olivier Touch line. They are all very good and seem to be of good quality. Oud Touch is very nice and I have Oud Vanilla on the way. Blue Touch is a classic smelling MEN fragrance. Not green or aromatic as it is fresh. It is spicey and there is a melon off the top to me. I get the aquatic it is portrayed to have. A great summer frag but I think it can be all season. Has a nice woodsy thing at the base. The more I use it the more I like it. Office safe, travel safe and a general all rounder. EDIT 12/12/21 I need to update this because I did, indeed, purchase AdG and am doing a side by side comparison of them. AdG right hand vs FOBT left hand. Out of the gate the AdG smelled better, more crisp BUT after the initial blast, 2-3 minutes they pretty much smell EXACTLY the same and 5 minutes beyond FOBT is stronger and more lively. It is also projecting much better than the AdG. Pound for pound so far I am calling Blue Touch the winner. AdG had a very initial citrus blast right when sprayed and then toned down almost instantly to a dull roar and its normal level. BT lacked that initial citrus blast but it had that soapy clean smell right away. BT maintained the intial projection far longer than AdG. Smelling pretty much the same. If it were a blind test I would not be able to tell the difference. The thing that would clue me in of which one was which, would be that BT is stronger and more projecting.

Remarkable fragrance! My favorite fragrance of all time is Acqua di Gio but I feel this is actually more like the original from the nineties than the current formulation. Clone - I tried Perry Ellis and Paris Hilton, along with another clone. All are good takes on ADG but this is easily without a doubt the best clone (and standalone fragrance) that has been made. The others smell similar but not dead on like this one. Fragrance/scent - Smells like a greener and slightly more sweet/fruity Acqua di Gio, but really it is so close that if I didn't know what I was smelling, I'd think it was the real Acqua di Gio. It isn't just a freshie either, I find that it has some sort of complexity to it. I smell different facets at different times, the lemon. The melon. The wood. And the grassy green notes. For those who don't know ADG: Fresh, summery, nice. Not really aquatic like cool water and not sweet like Invictus aquas.. this is more bitter, fresh and spicy. 90's style. Longevity - Better than current Acqua di Gio. Very strong for a freshie. Price/value - Unbeatable. Quality is through the roof. Blind buy - Yes, it is a safe bet. Verdict: Great fragrance, underrated. I am very pleased that this is not a famous fragrance so I can rock it byt myself. I am so curious about trying more from Franck Olivier now, they seem to put out solid quality fragrances.

At the beginning of spraying the perfume, I smell lemon, bergamot, green notes, as well as tangerine, then the beautiful yellow watermelon (melon) note appears with glimpses of vetiver as well as wood, and then the musk scene prevails. The fragrance is a citrusy, fruity, green, musky, refreshing, sweet, very gentle and simple scent, absolutely safe, that will impress the audience, and fetch compliments. Ideal for hot weather in summer and spring, for all ages, with casual clothes, and for various occasions and situations (exercise, shopping, work, office, university, hiking). Blue touch also appears to be an clone to the famous and successful acqua di gio from Giorgio Armani, which was released in 1996. Their opening notes are almost identical, but in dryness, Blue Touch is more fruity and green than Acqua Di Gio. Although (Blue Touch) perfume has a low price, I did not find its smell synthetic or suffocating or annoying. Rather, I found that the quality of its notes was completely acceptable, with a good longevity of more than 8 hours on the skin and sillage up to three hours. It comes in an elegant and gorgeous bottle in blue color to indicate freshness, and a good spray . A fragrance of hidden gems

So Aqua di Gio used to be my favorite when it came out. I haven't owned it in like 20 years. I work at a 2 year long residential discipleship ministry and I just received my blue touch. I was amazed at how much I was reminded of that old faithful fragrance from back in the day. While I was done throwing away the wrapper I found out that a resident that arrived the same day had Aqua di Gio while I was making sure he had no contraband in his bags. Excited I did a direct comparison between 2 new batches of both 1 good squirt of both. One on each hand. Then I went around and asked several residents which smelled better. It was half and half and they had to go back and forth to determine which scent trumped the other. I haven't worn it a full day, but I played pickle ball and an hour into it Adg was almost all the way gone due to heavy sweating and blue touch was still strong I could still smell it a little after a shower. I kind of like the dry down better. I paid $12 for this. Strong awesome smelling cheap fragrance. I love it. Slightly less peppery slightly more sweet in the dry down.
