Mustang Blue

The first thing that comes to my mind is PURE NOSTALGIA!!!, and in the best way possible. Know when I say I am experiencing nostalgia from this fragrance it is more to say something smart in my childhood but not quite a fragrance. I remember as a kid my aunt and uncles house always smelled so good and for years now (15-20+) I must have forgotten that smell and as I assume like myself, most people that enjoyed smells and fragrances as a kid were simply too busy being a child during a time in their life to be concerned about a fragrance/smell they are picking up and rather just enjoyed it in the moment lol. Well as of Yesterday I just received mustang blue edt in the mail and I have been wearing it for the past day and I am proud to say that I have finally found something identical to that aroma my aunt and uncle used way back in the mid 90’s to early 2000’s. The moment I first got my nose on this I was instantly taken back to that time in my life and my face lit up with joy and a smile because I knew I had found a nostalgic fragrance that I have loved and lost in my life. This fragrance is classified as blue as stated in the name and some have been saying it is similar to bleu de Chanel, but if I must say myself its nothing even close to that and to my nose its 10x better than BDC. Yes, I Know some people may read this and think I’m crazy for saying that a supposedly $25 fragrance that some have even found on discount shelves at Walmart is better than BDC, but that’s honestly the beauty of this community, that we are all entitled to different opinions. Who knows maybe it could be because it gives me nostalgia, or maybe it’s just fragrances like BDC and Dylan blue I’ve simply just out grown now and I’m tired of smelling them. If you are on the fence about buying this fragrance and you are someone say who likes Freshies, or blue fragrances, or even green fragrances for that matter, GET IT lol. I tell you I had put this fragrance in and out of my ebay cart for close to a year and I finally bit the bullet on the purchase and now it’s crazy to think that if I didn’t take that risk, I may have never stumbled upon this fragrance. To wrap things up with a description, I would say that this is an amazing fragrance especially for what it’s selling for. It is a nice clean, fresh, uplifting, and invigorating fragrance. Somewhat soapy and sort of like and expensive shower gel not found in drugstores or convenient stores. This fragrance is perfect for everyday use in any setting, so I guess we’ll call it a casual type of fragrance however I could see myself both dressing this up or even wearing this to the gym. Great option for a simple man that is on the go and constantly changing his surroundings, and I think the ladies will love this lol. Scent: 10/10 Projection: 7/10 Longevity: 6.5/10 Sillage: 7/10 PS I am referring to the 2020 version of Mustang Blue.

An impressive release from House Aramis, available at just about any drugstore or superstore, that smells anything but. When I saw this I expected some weak juice like the ones previously released by some high-end sportscar companies and found instead a very crisp aromatic manly scent... A quite green citrusy opening surprised my nose and widened my eyes. The warmth in the spicy floral heart is tinged with the slight bitterness of artemisia yet overall is smooth and herbal. The drydown is a pleasant woody musk and throughout the whole I swear I can detect cypress though it is not listed among the notes. This is a very well blended scent consistent with the quality of an Aramis release though its 'volume' never reaches the level of say Havana or Tuscany. This is an excellent choice if you want to smell clean, manly and fresh but don't want to pay an arm and a leg... Sillage: good Longevity: decent Overall: 3.25/5 This is very good for an eau de cologne concentration and I have received a few compliments on this after I could no longer detect it. The tin this comes in I have found, is perfect for storing sample vials or small decants. I originally purchased 'Mustang' and passed on this because there was no tester out at that time after I tried the original, I bought this the next time I saw it and truly enjoy it...

A fresh, synthetic, casual fragrance for kids to teenagers. Nothing spectacular, really affordable.

Mine must've been sitting out in the sun because it smells like alcohol, chemicals and nothing pleasant whatsoever

Todays fragrance of the day. Opens smelling reminiscent of a nice day of swimming in a pool... but the pool is full of dead insects, algae, and there's a wet dog running around. Jokes aside, I'm not sure if there are two versions of Mustang Blue as the notes I pick up differ from what's listed, but this smells like seaweed, which to me is a note that smells like wet dogs when used in fragrances. If you don't mind seaweed as a fragrance note, this is alright as an aquatic fragrance. It reminds me of Ocean Pacific (OP) Blue, which is not listed on Fragrantica and also has the wet dog seaweed note. I actually hate this and regret buying it.

I tried this recently on my skin, for the first 10 something minutes my nose is hit with nothing but flowers. I don't particularly like the flowery stuff but I endured to see if it would change. After about an hour of settling it become something...nostalgic. It was Drakkar Noir, a fragrance my father wore and still keeps in his bathroom cabinet to this day. Mustang Blue has the same lemon and bergamot, it's basically Drakkar Noir with more flowers (at least on me). If Drakkar Noir is for cold days than Mustang Blue is the polar opposite for those warm days since they are similar but not the same. It's not bad, just not my style of fragrance, I don't know if women love flowery stuff on a guy or if some guys don't mind it, but it hurts my nose to smell this longer than I have to. Reading what people said below, if this is what people like for the beach and/or what reminds them of country side then I'll remain a 'city slicker' for the rest of my days.

I'm not sure which Mustang I tested this afternoon but it is not at all what I expected. It's still not great, but definitely a change from what I expected. It does mimic an outdoorsy scent but the floral scents are mute and the middle tones reflect the car culture they must have had in mind. Its weird to see I'd actually try but the intent of this scent seem to be met. It reminds me of a drive down a country road on a warm late summer day. At the very least its interesting and given that its a Lauder product and the samples are all over magazines its not hard to check it out. Not going to recommend it but not going to rail against it either.

I also got this as a gift from my gf. I prefer this one when we take daytime trips skiing or beach trips. It has the outdoor scent. She said there is hay in this one, I like Mustangs as cars but do not want to smell like a mustang. On this one you can't notice the actual hay smell, it smells more grassy so it's pretty good.

wow! made by aramis finally this brand makes a good scent thats actually masculine without the leathery bitter 70s stuff very rugged and well done fresh fougere! the scent is very complex and well blended and the entire blend really makes this scent stand out ESPECIALLY ON THE WALMART RACK

I got this for my 10yr old boy. He loves it. One squirt and I can smell it on him all day. Reminds me of something I used to wear in the 80's. It's a good cheap drugstore scent.

Definitely a blue scent.. Got this by mistake instead of "Mustang Mustang" I don't like it. Smells like kids cologne

Great low priced option in the market, the original Mustang is also worth to try. Great masculine scent.

@guest_Nick best smell? lmao you must be kidding right?

Smells very fresh like david beckhams instinct.
