Blue Agave

The smell after talking a long, relaxing shower at some bougie beachside hotel. Opens up with a mouthwatering, and ultra fresh lime, sea salt, and sage opening. Intensely fresh, clean, and easy to wear. As it dries down the salt takes center stage with help from the addition of green, herbaceous, and slightly musky agave leaves + the remainder of the lime + sage opening. In the deep dry down there’s a slight woody backbone, but nothing super special, just gives it legs. A very very good blue fragrance. Take that bright citric, clean, green almost boozy opening of Tommy Bahamas “Saint Barts” and amp it up x10. While not something super innovative or niche, what it does: it does really damn well. A great dumb reach for the summer, but it has legs to cut through the cold if you give it a couple extra blasts. Will most likely be picking this up come this summer. Very traditionally masculine, but wear what you want. Great performance on my skin of 12+ hours, with strong projection for the first 3.5 (bear in mind this was in the cold) 9.2/10. Signature scent worthy. Song vibe - Wasurerarenai no by sakanaction TLDR - A very solid blue/fresh fragrance that’s really hard to actively dislike, AND has some real powerful performance behind it. Lime + sage + sea salt freshness + a twinge of green agave all come together to form this albeit simple, but reliably refreshing blue fragrance.

I received the most awkward compliment wearing Blue Agave (the updated formulation). I walked into Staples to get something printed. Right after I walked by the counter the cashier says to the woman she is helping that she smelled really good. That makes the woman at the counter so happy and they talk about it for a minute. Soon after, another woman walks in and stops at the printer next to me and says, “you smell really amazing! What cologne is that?” I answered. All of this happening where everyone can hear. The first two ladies realize the smell was coming from me and not the first woman. This is a fresh and clean salty aquatic scent with a little soapy and booziness (the agave is making me think this). I am not usually a fan of blue aquatic scents. I think they smell too artificial and annoying, but Blue Agave uses high quality and smooth ingredients. This is another amazing versatile summer scent from Precious Liquid.

Smells A LOT like bleu de chanel only a billion times nicer. What a masterpiece. Why is this rated so low? What the hell is wrong with you people? Really. ADD: After wearing it for a little while, I still love it to death, but it doesn't really have a lot in common with BDC other than being a freshie. It is one of the most citrus forward fragrances I've ever tried, like Bohemian Lime, but with more lemony or nondescript citrus than lime. There is background woods and greens adding depth and complexity and balance. It is expensive, but the quality is undeniable if you really examine it. If you have the cash you should try it out, or at least sample it if you're considering it. Every time I buy a bottle from Precious liquid, they send me 15 samples from their collection including this, so if you're considering getting anything else (Salt & Pepper is a masterpiece) you should receive a sample.

Just received the sample today and at first it smelled a bit weird on my skin. I was dumbfounded. Then sprayed it on my wife and it was amaaaaaaazing on her. Then on the dry down on my skin, I get a Hawaii fresh oceanic vibe. It smells complex with nuance. This stuff is GOOD!! I just write a review and gave Tommy Tropics a thumb up. Now sprayed this Blue Agave side by side with Tropics, the difference is obvious. Blue Agave has a lot more going on liken a beautiful car that also has a luxurious interior. While Tropic is nice but doesn't have much behind it. Wow, this is good! I keep wanting to sniff my arm for Blue Agave and literally don't want to smell Tropics anymore.

Delightful! The scent evokes some sort of childhood nostalgia for me, kind of reminds me of the type of laundry detergent my aunt would use in Turkey, take that smell and wear those fresh clothes on a hot day out and that is the vibe here. The performance is real good, projects like a beast and lasts a GOOD while, especially for a freshie. It is quite expensive and if you're ordering from abroad you now need to pay import tax on it which also adds to the delivery price on top of the already high price of the product. Is it worth it? In my opinion yes but keep in mind that you are looking at about +£80 to the price listed on the website to purchase it outside of the US.
