Givenchy pour Homme Blue Label

I like it, I love it, I want some more of it. Even though I still have a completely full bottle :) Givenchy, you please me so, I never want to see you go. If you do my soul will die, no grandma will ever make another pie. Neo. Lol. This is an extremely fresh cologne. The grapefruit and bergamot hit hard in the top notes. The variety of base notes are nicely balanced and not overpowering. Not to mention the lavender and pepper is amazing in it as well. I do not find this to be spicy at all though, just like Chanel Allure Sport EDT even though they are considered spicy. A lot of us say that this is is generic, boring, simple, etc. which I think isn't entirely true. I do find this to remind of a lot of other colognes, but I think Blue Label tops the generic genre. It really does come down to the overall quality and chemistry Givenchy put into Blue Label. I am convinced Givenchy intended for this to be one of their casual, fresh colognes we can enjoy during the day time or a nice all occasion type. Nothing serious, just good ol' clean. Longevity is pretty good. Not the longest lasting cologne I own but I'm always running in and out at work so I do understand it's struggle to stay on me, haha. The bottle is pretty cool. It's extremely big and it towers all my other bottles. The spritzer is pretty cool too. It gives mini shots so that you don't spray on too much, which I like. With all that said. It's another great cologne from the house of Givenchy. Givenchy is awesome and dominating the department stores right now. Keep doing what you do Givenchy. ;)

At first sniff you can feel the quality, its uplifting and very nice, a feelgood kind of fragrance, but nothing special. But then, after a wearing others for a while, it keeps coming back in my mind, and I surprise myself craving for it. The second wearing felt even better and pushed this straight into my loved ones. It's one of the very few that I miss after a while, and keep craving for it! Lasts forever as a skin scent, and projects softly for a few hours. Excellent, very close to the original GPH but with much better performance, this is what GPH should have been in the first place. @deja vu-gr: this is NOT discontinued, why do some guys keep starting rumors like this? You think starting the discontinued frenzy is cool, it makes you feel important? Check on the official site, it's only a few clicks away.

I love smelling this cologne! I love it so much that I almost wish I could wear it, and I'm a girl. Instead, I ended up buying it for my brother on his birthday, and get to enjoy smelling it around the house. He likes it a lot too, which is a relief considering how most perfumes trigger his allergies or are just too strong for him. There is something just so addictive about it, about all Givenchy perfumes, really. This cologne is so lemony, clean, and fresh, but definitely does not smell cheap. It is also not a harsh citrus scent, as the lavendar and other notes soften it up quite a bit. For summer, it's perfect, as it is not cloying at all, and leaves a beautiful scent trail. It's a really great light, casual scent that's perfect for day to day wear.

Very nice spring and summer scent. The grapefruit gives the top a more unique citrus vibe on a fresh base. Most importantly for me- it’s a summer blue that does not have that aquatic note that smells like rancid melons. This also feels versatile enough (thanks to the woodier base notes) that it could work for an office, crisp suits, or a tshirt. It doesn’t smell “unique”, but it is a better overall version of this type of scent. Pleasing without being boring. Every time I put it on I think “damn this smells good”.

eu nao troco e nao permito faltar para mim.nao é a 8 maravilha do mundo,mas é marcante.aki no Rio de janeiro nao é tao badalado quanto polo blue,aqua di gio,aqua bulgary,mas é um perfume sofisticado em minha opiniao. a uniao da refrescancia com a sensualidade adquirida pela nota de pimenta faz dele um tanto jovem,mas elegante...bem coringa,deixa um rastrinho suave e perceptivel,fixaçao em minha pele supera as 8 horas.pena que a nota de grapefuit se sobressai muito se nao seria perfeito.

Lovely one, it started with a spicy, woody and grapefruit scent then turn into to an Acqua di gio style fragrance...not bad and the lavender appears at the end. Great to wear in spring and cold summer day.Very versatile, Can fit every occasion 2 sprays is enough to stay for 6 to 8 hours with a great projection. Well perceived by the ladies Everyone can wear this so 8/10

A clean, bitter citrus smell with a touch of spiciness. I tried it for the olibanum note, & eventhough it wasn't noticeable, I was very pleased with the smell of Blue Label. This is a good summer fragrance for the fans of spices & wood who don't want fruity or aquatic fragrances. It reminds a little of Burberry The Beat. Another good one from Givenchy.

if anyone has looked for the fragrance smelling on a drydown like Old Spice Cooling shower gel, here it is. and this is nice, I like the scent for being fresh and clean mix of citrus and soapy notes. it is light and wearable, good for the warm and hot weather. a worthy opponent to Acqua Di Giò and its lookalikes.

For me this is a citrusy fresh clean everyday fragrance that is underrated, this fragrance carries many memories and will always have a place in my heart, the only con that i would point out is that this fragrance does not last long, but other than that this is a really clean everyday cheap fragrance!

Very good one, refreshing,calming,suitable for summer, combines grapefruit with lavender with hints of pepper and cedar........... supposed to give it just (like) but due to the memories this perfume brings to me, I (love) it, it reminds me of best days of my life

The way grapefruit oil blends with olibanum resin and light cedar is fabulous . It is simple and yet complex smell . Classic mans cologne for the heat and not only. September in a bottle ...For me is the real Bvlgari Aqua predecessor.

one of my favorite...very clean and versatile, projection is awesome and i get a good 6 to 8 hours longevity on my skin...best thing is that not too many plp wear it like acqua di gio, dior etc..an absolute masterpiece by givenchy

This is a mass Appealing fresh slightly aquatic scent. Good for summers and a warm hot day. Pretty nice to wear it occasionally but I won't feel the urge to wear it often so it's really nothing special in it.

This is a nice scent. It's light and citrus based, with a slight woody touch. I like it for day wear. It's not groundbreaking by any means, but a safe wear. I like to spray it many times, it smells great!

Boys listen, this is sexy! It's so fresh and masculine, young and clean! It's for the never-grow-ups. The best summer scent ever! Go buy a bottle! :)

A beautiful classic scent for everyday and every night. Extremely versatile and clean and works well on all occasions and any weather.

I have worn this since it came out. Always amazed on how many compliments I get on it! One of the best fragrances out there.

a more "friendly to the nose" dior higher. I love this one. Its fresh and spicy but not too sharp. Underrated perfume

Nice "woody?" frag, serious and unique stuff. Recommend it for colder days, not summer!! it will not work. 8/10

فقط می‌تونم برای رایحه این ادکلن از کلمه «طراوت» استفاده کنم. شما رو می‌بره به یک دنیای دیگه

ele veste bem em qualquer ocasião , fixa e projeta muito bem,aroma sensual e convidativo.

بازخورد عالی عاشقشم واسه تابستان عالیه خنک با پخش بوی خوب

it's a high end long lasting scent with a great smell

Excelente para o dia a dia. Uma agradável fragrancia.

Givenchy Pour Homme Blue Label was launched in 2004, being the first flanker, in order to give continuity to the original fragrance, from 2002. Both fragrances were created by Ilias Ermenidis and Alberto Morillas and, it is worth praising, the DNA was respected and adapted to a “blue” version, which tried to deliver more freshness and versatility. The composition lists notes of grapefruit, bergamot, and hedione, in the output; Davana, green cardamom, lavender, and black pepper, in the body; Frankincense, vetiver, and cedar at the base. Classified as woody-aromatic, its fragrance was quickly accepted by the male public, who had already surrendered to the blue version of Ralph Lauren's classic Polo, launched a year earlier. However, while the competition was exploring notes of melon and cucumber in a way never seen before, Givenchy Pour Homme Blue Label tried to convey a blue fresh aspect in a successful fragrance forged by notes of lavender and woods, which was the case of Givenchy Pour Homme. And even without using aqueous or marine accords, the result was very pleasant. On the skin, Givenchy Pour Homme Blue Label reveals incredible facets of some key ingredients, which are: grapefruit, which shines in a citrusy and slightly spicy way; lavender, which here reveals its most camphorated tones; the davana, aromatic and herbal; and, finally, the cedar, which has a drier and lighter woody content, always very adaptable to the male universe. Once you understand these facets, it's easier to decipher this fragrance and stop hoping for spicier nuances of cardamom or a smokier base of frankincense, which won't come. Then, the man who fell in love with the original fragrance, realizes that he has found a funkier and more versatile version, without having to change its scent completely. But not everything is perfect! Givenchy Pour Homme Blue Label is median in all aspects of its evolution, considering its trace and longevity. Its great secret has always been the hedione note, which has already been proven to be an attractive compound for women, according to scientific studies. And as much as it is one of those fragrances that get compliments, Givenchy Pour Homme Blue Label has never been as successful as that other blue one, from the competition. On the other hand, it ended up positioning itself as a less “popular” and more elegant version among men who were already considered collectors or perfume addicts. Because, my friend, if you think that the hype, or that fear of wearing the same perfume that everyone else is wearing, is something created by millennial YouTubers, you are very wrong!

Safe and somewhat unassuming, GpH Blue Label definitely resides in the same neighborhood as D&G Light Blue and Acqua di Good. Strong bergamot and pepper in the opening for me, fresh and slightly masculine. I wouldn't call it an aquatic by any means, but there is a watery quality to the opening and middle that feels refreshing to me. The lavender is present but kind of transparent, and I really don't get much artemisia or cardamom from the middle. The vetiver and olibanum stick out for me in the drydown, but it doesn't come off earthy or resinous in the slightest. On my skin, cedar is missing from the party but does add a slight woodiness to the clean vetiver. I think someone below me described it as a "casual" scent and that description is pretty on point. Could *possibly* be a date night smell for a dude in their teens, but for anyone in their 20s on this is a versatile fragrance for the office, casual outings, and everyday wear in warm climates. It's bright enough if you want a little pop of freshness in cold weather, but I would imagine you'd be the only one smelling it. It's not aggressive and only mildly synthetic in the opening... It takes no real risks, but at the same time no one will think you smell bad wearing this. I have no issue with the bottle, though the atomizer on mine is a little hit or miss. Once, I didn't press it fast and sharp and was met with a tiny stream of fragrance instead of a mist. I'm not gonna knock them on it, it was probably user error tbh. Performance is acceptable for me (lasts longer than Light Blue on my skin at least), sillage is fine I guess? It's not loud but isn't a skin scent either. It's a decent fragrance, but for the price I would say it is pretty damn good. I have others fragrances for the summer I like much more, but I would never feel like I made a mistake if this is the one I grabbed.

On my skin: Top: Citrus, some sour scent, but not over powering, something spicy creeping out, but its hidden, you will need to really dig in to smell the spice. 1-3 hours mark. Middle: not much changes from the top notes, the citrus sour scent still lingers around. 2-3 hours. It literally gets close to my skin. I get bad projection from this one even on hot weathers =/ Base: Synthetic vibe on the dry-down, Something flower-sour; I don't know XD. 2-3 hours mark. Great complements for the first 3 hours, unique, but not special. Very versatile, I can use this at work out with friends, etc. You can use this when your shopping, going to the mall. But this is not for clubs. If you are into aquatics, this is a BUY. Unique aquatic scent. But it's a pass for me, I am not an aquatic fan for sure =p The country I am in has no 4 seasons, so it is either hot or cold weather. This works very well on the hot, under the heat. You can use this at night, but you can barely leave an impression on your date. My rating (base on 5 stars) Scent: 3 (unique aquatic, nice scent, but it seems a little common to me, its like a Volkswagen beetle, new concept, but the same ol' design-style...whatever). Sillage: 3-4 (not offending, sitting quietly when doing nothing, pumps up when you are walking). Time length: 2 (I get a poor one for this, so it is best to try it on your skin first before purchasing it). Occasion: 4 (You can use on any occasion. BUT not for parties, you cannot cut through the smoke with this). Overall base on mathematics: 3 @ 3.25/5 A biggy-looking aquatic bottle that goes on par with Acqua Di Gio. Aquatic fans should check this out, non aquatic fans...just don't bother. I bought it because I like the bottle shape =p

This gets too intense for summer where I live (hot and humid New Orleans) but great for our spring. It's a basic sweet citrusy fruitiness over woods and finishes with vetiver. Dunhill Desire Blue is the sickeningly sweet version of this, and D&G le Bateleur 1 is the exact same but with pronounced juniper. There is definitely unlisted juniper in here but it is not nauseating (hate it usually). The opening is very sweet, a bit like fiji apple, pear, pluot and a sprite. It's not a crisp citrus but the synthetic sort that people call citrus because it doesn't smell like anything real. It does transition into a more realistic lemon+grapefruit on the skin. The woods is this generic "cedar" thing that is close to the Kenneth Cole Mankind dna. The vetiver drydown is not so intense that it's all you smell for hours. Sillage is moderate to loud on the open, but fades quickly. Be careful as an overspray will be cloying and unpleasant. Within two hours, this is a skin scent at best. It performs much better on skin than on clothing, where it just kind of hangs out in the opening forever. Fantastic futuristic bottle design but the plastic top feels cheap for Givenchy. The sprayer mechanism is very cool and unique. Not bad but not great. There are other more distinctive and alluring citrus woods out there (Terre d'Hermes, Free Time which has a very strong vetiver finish, even Love & Luck). Complaints included, I'm going to keep this one in rotation this spring, to layer with lighter, crisper compositions like Dior Homme.

This is a pleasent smell, very inoffensive. The first time I tried the blue label it smelt identical to the red label which I owned previously. It was only after a couple of wears that I began to notice the difference. Both fragrances start off similar however, the drydowns are both different. To my nose, the red label is a bit sweeter and it maintains that in the dry down whereas with the blue label it starts off sweet but then turns into a mild sour citrusy smell (which I like actually). In fact, the sour citrusy smell kinda gives that impression that one of the notes not mentioned here is vodka or some other alcoholic beverage. The sour citrus smell reminds me of two other fragrances that I owned; subtle by sf and moon sparkle by escada. There are similar notes in all three but the greatest similarity to me is between the moon sparkle and this one. The only other note that I detect in this fragrance other than the citrus is lavander. I don't detect any of the spices or the woodsy notes for that matter. It's still early however, maybe after a few more wears I'll notice the other notes. My only negative comment about blue label is that it's soo sublte that it's projection after about 1-2hrs isn't that good and that's why I'd place red label above this. That withstanding, what it lacks in longevity, it makes up for in scent quality.

Givenchy PH Blue Label is one of my favourite ́s fragances ever,ingredients are simple but you feel the quality (is a wood based fragance with citrus and spices), how DarkViolet said: "Blue Label: sexy without being arrogant, simple without getting boring". This can be a good representative of the 2000 ́s essences, is sophisticated and socially accepted, not strong o intrusive like the 80 ́s....i don ́t know if is a "lady Killer" but when i use, i feel like a gentleman...might not see me so, but I think I smell like a one!!...good memories about this fragance Smell 9/10 [Grapefruit (not fresh)+Lavender (not like a old school)+pepper (not intrusive) combo!] Longevity 8/10 (is not a strong smell, remember) Projection 6/10 (not intrusive,is more like a conversacional/pair distance...spider web like) Lady Killer Capabilities ? (i don ́t know, i ́m not a woman!)

I remember trying the pour homme and I could've sworn this one too? Maybe I didn't so I've revisited it to see what I think and I'm pleasantly surprised. The opening is a very uplifting citrus not all sharp, bitter grapefruit, some sweeter fruity tones. A clean light, peppery musk greets you as it settles and in the drydown with a body of woods, cedar and vetiver at the back. It's not rocket science and it will never astound anyone but this is a very nicely put together and wearable fragrance. Givenchy Pour Homme seems to be a throwback somehow, because it doesn't have any obvious, modern trickery or faddiness...but I suppose it did come out in 2004! I want to see this heavily reduced and I would consider adding it to my collection, because it's a worthwhile fragrance, without being remarkable in anyway.

Givenchy Pour Homme Blue Label by Givenchy Scent: Opens heavy on the citrus with grapefruit and bergamont. The citrus pervades both opening and drydown. After the opening it melds pepper and cardamon, giving it a little more depth/weight that otherwise would not be there. (This is one of the few fragrances where I enjoy cardamon) Not too much floral, but the wood and pepper definitely give it a dry feel. 6.5/10 Sillage/Projection: On myself it lasts a few hours and projects a few inches off the skin. Not too loud, but pleasant; which works for this one, it shouldn't be in you face overt (hence the higher score) 8.0/10 Overall: A dry, spicy citrus. It is very similar to Acqua di Gio, but minus the acqua; which is nice if you suffer from a case of non-conformity and want an acqua di gio alternative. 7.0/10

This is a decent fresh, semi-spicy scent that is very safe and inoffensive. Projection and longevity will likely leave you wanting more. In the first 2 hours I get moderate at best projection and then in the next 2-3 hours its a skin scent before its gone completely. Definitely see this as a moderate to warm weather scent. Too spicy to pull off if its over 85 degrees but too much citrus fresh to pull off if its under 50 degrees. I used to wear this a lot in college and I am on my 3rd bottle of it. At this point there are so many other better offerings out there that this bottle will be my last. 10 years ago I would have gave this an 8/10. Now having been exposed to way more fragrances I give it a 6.5/10.

Twin cooler brother of GPH. Its easy to wear and relaxing. Very fresh citrusy opening with a faint combination of peppery and cucumber notes in the background.by a short time passes, pepper gets stronger until it dries down to woody notes specially vetiver. Opening is more beautiful than heart and bottom notes. Age;+20 Casual events only. Performance is moderate. Would I buy it again?maybe whenever I decide to remember my 20’s clearly.

Givenchy Blue Label starts out with a beautiful Grapefruit-Bergamot-Lavender accord, and the Grapefruit is a little bit fruity. Cardamom enhanced pepper joins in right away to spice it up. No musks or amber in the base keeps it fresh throughout the duration. A woody incense-like accord is what is left after the first hour, and it holds on for 4 to 5 hours total on me. Sillage is average. Nice for business or daytime casual wear.

Rocked red label OG formulation thru the 2000s, never smelled this. Blind bought a 50ml for $25. Damn if blue label isn't better in it's 2019 formulation than the red label is! Classier & less ambroxan-y than most freshies. This will be in rotation for me this summer for sure. The artesma in the heart is the star of this show. This could be dressed up & seems to give 4-6hour run so pretty versatile warm weather frag.

First review. (My 100ml-bottle has just arrived). *Twin brother* of 'Allure H. Sport' ('Chanel'). Sexy, cool, creamy. Very tasty! Made for day. :) Also reminds me of 'Acqua di Giò' ('GA'). For now I have only this to say. Bye. "Updating...". (It still brings me to 'Allure H. Sport' by 'Chanel'). But now I also can see 'Polo Blue' ('Raplh Lauren'), when I use 'Blue Label'. It's 'Allure H. Sport' summer version.

A good COLD fragrance for the Summer. All ages-appropriate. Mass appealing (which is not necessarily a bad thing) and i assume it fairly gets you compliments. (Didn’t get any in the specific forum I’ve worn it). I wonder how come no one mentioned “coconut” btw... 🥥 It smells cold, coconuty and L’insoumis-like (Lalique). Lasts a good 7-8 hours and projects strongly. Overall, a great summer musky fragrance.

Pompelmo ed ancora pompelmo fondamentalmente le altre note sono solo un vassoio cui sono adagiati copiosi pompelmi, solo l'olibano ed il legno di cedro si rendono più presenti rispetto alle altre note . AMARO al naso, non mi sveglia particolari langurini non fa al mio caso, ciò nonostante non è da scartare profumo comunque accettabile. 6,5/10

A nice fresh, clean, and pleasant, but not overly sharp or aquatic. It works well in everyday situations. Projection is average, with a nice, noticeable sillage. On my skin, it lasted around 6+ hours, which felt very reasonable for this type of fragrance. A solid fragrance and safe to buy if you’re looking for something clean and versatile.

When I got ot for my partner, he wasn't very interested in fragrances, beyond wanting to smell nice. I picked this because it's fun, fresh, and peppery, and didn't give me headache like many heavier perfumes can. I still enjoy it quite a bit, and so does he, but wishes to branch out, about which I'm happy.

I bought and used a bottle of this from Macys quite a few years ago. I remember enjoying this quite a bit and appreciating how it stood above the usual modern citrus/aquatics. I don't feel the need to purchase this again, but I'm definitely glad I used it. Can't go wrong with this one.

simply this is the best cold perfume that i ever smell.it has good last longing and sillage.i ricieved very compliment from it.girls crazy about that.trust me.8/10 بهترین عطر خنکی که در زندگیم داشتم با ماندگاری و پخش بوی قابل قبول. دخترا دیوونه ی بوشن. من که خیلی تعریف ازش دریافت کردم.

I just picked it up a small bottle and sooooo glad I did. For me, longevity isn't that great but the scent is very lovely so I don't mind reapplying it every few hours. It's everything spring and summer should be. Fun, fresh, youthful, vibrant. Ahhh love it!

One of my favorites! I love it so much. For me, it is suitable for any occasion at any time, but mostly for summer. Really like the spicy feel to it. A good purchase for anyone who wants to wear something casual, but fresh and elegant at the same time.

So fresh like a spirit in the morning. Simple, clean, good longevity and has the same flavor from start to finish. The smell reminds me of Eternity Aqua for Man. Unfortunately there is a cheap man spray cologne that smells like this.

it's 2 simple for my taste :D I had it, but i won't buy it again. It's a fresh fragrance and good for every day... but nothing special... and doesn't have any elegants in his way! But i like that it's a long lasting, a powerful one!

Nothing to write home about, but a very nice everyday or office frag. Can't go wrong with it if you want to play on the safe side, not going to turn heads but you will smell god. Own it myself and definelty use it in my rotation.

It's not too bad,but its nothing special. Goes on kinda strong but calms down to a skin close scent quickly. Think generic aquatic scent and that perfectly describes this. It does little to differentiate itself from competition.

Projection:3/10 Longevity:5/10 (Up to 4 hours) Scent:7/10 Compliments:5/10 Total: 5/10 Nice summer scent. If longevity and projection are better, it definitely will be from the worldwide top summer men perfume.
