Baby Blue Jeans

Not really a child's scent, even though the kid on the package is wearing his dad's suit, trying to be grown up (cute!). This is a lighter scent than Blue Jeans, but not actually a "fraiche" version. This is like a faded and worn favorite pair of jeans you've had forever...and Blue Jeans is like the slammin' new designer pair you just got... This is a super citrus scent. It begins with all the sharpness of bergamot and bitter lime with some mandarin too keep it from overpowering, still sharp but sweeter. Clean and fresh, like a baby is, but if your baby smells like this...get him to the pediatrician! The heart becomes wonderfully green with galbanum and juniper, an aromatic mix for sure and some cool iris that gives it a powdery earthiness. The drydown comes long after the top and heart, but the citrusy spiceiness stays with you throughout. The cedar and sandal are dry and the vanilla adds a sweetness to the clean musk and I can't really smell the patchouli; other than a soft, slightly dirty note (like a kid after playing outside). This is definitely not for children...unless they are precocious and ahead of the curve; but it does remind one of lost innocence, and how much fun it was to just be a kid. How fresh and new and wonderful the world was, and when I start to think I might be getting too "mature"-a couple sprays of this has me ready to run in the grass and "play pretend"... Sillage: Great Longevity: good Overall: 4.25/5 I really like all of the mens JEANS scents from Versace, and love the Yellow Jeans for women. Both the Metal (purple) Jeans have thus far eluded me, but they will come, I'm sure. Donatella created this scent (and Gianni did Rose Baby Jeans)to remind her of how her "boys" smelled when they were little...and I think she nailed it! A classic citrus-green scent that refreshes, invigorates and ultimately comforts...worth having!

Someone once said this smells like a citronella candle, alcohol and baby powder. As much as I like this one, I would say that it is somewhat spot on with how this smells. This scent kind of depends on what setting you are in. If you are the coolest cat in the room, people will love it! If you suck at life and are unattractive, people will repel even more from you. It is described as casual but you could pull this in a semi formal setting. It is quite strong at first, but calms slightly down into a wonderful scent in my opinion. I think it is WAY TOO underrated and hated by people with near virgin noses. I picture someone like "The Most Interesting Man in The World", wearing this cologne. It's a mature scent that no teenager has any business wearing. I personally like it and think it's one of those that should get more credibility for its scent.

#97 in my "Tour de Fragrance" of 250 scents in 250 days, and a scent I first tried twenty years ago that I loved, but Versace discontinued. Versace Blue Jeans, nearly my least favorite scent in the "Jeans" line is still on the market, and I have Blue Jeans, but I recently found a bottle of Baby Blue Jeans on eBay and had to have it. I still love this bright, citrusy scent of orange, lime, bergamot and iris. One of the best Summer scents of all time. I wish Versace would bring back the whole line. You'd think they'd notice bottles of Versace Green Jeans are going for $350 on eBay and figure out it is worth reintroducing. But it's a marketing concept whose time probably passed when blue jeans became a $400 piece of clothing at Anthropologie.

First I'd like to say that I love the packaging of this fragrance from the tin it comes in to the little frosted bottle itself. As far as its smell I also like it. The first time I smelled it I almost put it down because of the opening, which is a lot of citrus and only citrus. I saw someone else say it smells like a cleaning product which I can somewhat agree with. But then after 10 min or so it softens up and becomes maybe the best dry down of any fresh fragrance I've smelled so far, I think it's wonderful. It has the vanilla and patchouli and it's very pleasant. I think if you want something a little more unique than most fresh fragrances give this a try you might like it.

I got this fragrance recently and really like it. It is so superior to its big brother, Blue Jeans. It does not have the strong vanilla, Blue Jeans has, which is good as it can get a bit too much. IMHO, it makes its older brother a bit of a trainwreck, by comparison The citrus and powder are very smooth and it is long lasting. It is hard to imagine this offending anyone. The only issue is the name...not very macho. Not the sort of name you would bandy around at a truck-stop...This is kind of a olfactory version of the Beach Boys song "Baby Blue", smooth sweet and easy listening (smelling).

This is my favorite from the Versace catalogue. This is a refreshing juice for summer. The initial spray is a soft lemon/lime. The scent dries down to a nice crisp, clean scent with a hint of vanilla. My only complaint is the weak silliage & I constantly re-apply to "freshen up". It is NOT an obnoxious scent & reminds me of a grown-up version of Nenuco, a cologne splash for babies my mother used on me in Spain. I'll be sad when I finish my bottle. And to some readers inquiring about availability, I easily find Versace Jeans perfumes on eBay. This is where I purchased this bottle.

I have never understood why Versace discontinued this beauty, and Green Jeans, yet kept Blue Jeans alive. >>> Insert loud sigh here <<< Baby Blue Jeans is delightful. Powdery yet bold; sweet yet endearing - this is a great scent for anyone. I wish Tesla would hurry up and release their Time Machine, so I can travel back to the ‘90s and stock up on BBJ (and Green Jeans too). >>> Insert wink here <<

I love this one! I still have a bottle from when I was younger, the smell is citrusy, floral and powdery for me, it reminds me of the Mediterranean. I love it I find it very comforting and summery, it’s definitely 100% a day time perfume, I wish they’d start producing this again it is lovely! One of my favourites

Nice refreshing, almost fizzy, citrus/vanilla scent. Opens with lemon/lime and a touch of vanilla. The drydown is a lovely clean soapy/lemon scent followed by a sweet powder. Longevity and sillage OK. Nice neat little potion bottle. Great for summer.

This is basically Shalimar Light. Very nice and fresh at first and then turns sweet and powdery. It's definitely unisex, if anything, a bit more feminine.

If Guerlain made Heritage Sport, it would smell pretty much like BBJ. Very nice once the top fades.

This stuff is AMMAZIng Fresh and clean and simple smells like leamon pie so yummy I love it

Real good cologne the best blue jean selection.

As the heat and humidity build, I pulled out Baby Blue Jeans, applying early in the morning for a bracing jolt of bergamot, here in it's lemon personae. On me more lemon than lime, this is a fresh unisex fragrance that seems made for sweltering weather. The mandarin orange is zesty rather than juicy, but the citrus accord created by the lime, the lemony bergamot, and the mandarin orange, is pitch perfect. Neither sour nor sweet, neither dry nor juicy, instead this combines a sweet but dry mandarin orange peel with a juicy and tart bergamot and lime. Although tobacco is not listed here, there is a strong tobacco/ cigarette note. The rosemary is more camphorous than minty here, with a green, weedy, grassy quality. Please note that this is an agreeable camphor, not antiseptic or medicinal, but dry and bitter. The galbanum is bitter and green, more than balmy and resinous, although musky. The iris is powdery and earthy, and altogether the heart is tart, dry, powdery, earthy and green, helping to ground the big bold citrus. There is a moment when I get the image of a cigarette that has been crushed out in a plate of tart lemon curd, but this is mercifully short lived. "Big citrus" lingers well into the heart and the drydown, fading, but disappearing only towards the end, when the sandalwood and musk combine with a touch of vanilla. This is not a sweet soft fragrance, but seems to me well suited for women. Great for casual wear in hot climates, good for the office, and for daytime outings. Lasts 4-6 hours on me.

This one is pure nostalgia for me. Someone gifted it to my little brother when we were kids, and even though I don’t remember all the details, the smell instantly brings me back. Sundays, getting dressed up for church, birthdays, holidays — every time we were going somewhere special, my mom would spray this on him. Sitting next to him in the car, in church, or at a restaurant... that scent is tied to all of it. The fragrance itself is soft, fresh, and comforting. It opens with a gentle citrus that quickly turns fluffy and powdery, supported by light herbal aromatics. It smells clean and well-groomed, but in an old-school way — no sweetness overload, no shower-gel freshness, no gourmand touches. Just that classic blend of citrus, clean musks, and fresh herbs. It sits somewhere between the 80s and 90s — a kind of transitional scent. You still feel traces of the stronger, more structured 80s fougere style, but it’s clearly moving toward the lighter, fresher direction of the 90s. There’s a Mediterranean feel to it. What makes it special is how universal it feels. It genuinely smells like something for kids — soft, clean, and innocent — but at the same time, anyone can wear it. Kids, adults, elders, men, women... it just works. Honestly, it’s a shame Versace discontinued it.

I stumbled upon this in a store in Ontario last month (Aug 2016), and bought it for $25 (plus tax; 50ml). The shop assistants assured me that it wasn't too masculine, though I was aware they may simply have had an eye for a sale! I thought the price was too good to pass on, so bought it, even though it was a bit strong! I am wearing it properly today for the first time, on a much cooler day (high teens in Celsius, versus sweatily hot). It goes on a bit strong and obviously unisex, but NOT too masculine for a woman who likes distinctive scents. It's now about 4 hours later and the scent has faded to a soft but noticeable lime / bergamot / iris / sandalwood scent -- those are the notes that I can still smell clearly. The overall effect is of a soft fragrant warm spicy perfume, good for autumn (and probably spring). I am glad I bought it! One of the best things about it, apart from its longevity (4 hours for me is a lot longer than many another much more expensive perfume lasts), is that it does not instantly remind me of some other women's perfume. It is not a girly fruity-floral, but neither is it too 'mature'. Long story short: buy if you can find it, spray about an hour before you leave the house, it'll be fine for women.

One year after the launch of Blue Jeans on the market, Versace decided to bring a more "youthful" version of this success. Then, in 1995, Baby Blue Jeans was released, with a boy printed on its packaging, playing as a man. The intention was to produce a fresher perfume aimed at young teenagers who are concerned, in an early way, with their image. I don't particularly think it worked! I'm not talking about the fragrance, which is great, but the result that, in my point of view, was not made for teenagers. The fragrance contains, in a way, the DNA of its predecessor, bringing an initial citrus dip. But it is not a youthful perfume! It opens with citrus notes, but the body is rich in iris, rosemary, and galbanum. To finish, the base contains sandalwood, patchouli, cedar, musk, and vanilla. For me, Baby Blue Jeans carries a strong, yet comfortable fragrance. And its citrus notes, along with musk and vanilla, are what most stand out on my skin. But still, it is a perfume for real men, not for young people, who can count on other options, like CK One, for example.

Baby Blue Jeans is a much younger version of Blue Jeans, they have the same DNA IMO, Its not very masculine and may be used by girls for sure but its not for kids, It opens up very powdery where I actually get the iris and the musk much stronger than the citric part, but then that settles and becomes a citric powdery/floral white scent, In longevity I find it to be very good as pretty much every Versace scent, but yes it does smell synthethic, I don ́t really feel the woody part on this one, or at least not till it is a skin scent. Overall I find it to be a pretty decent casual smell for doing outside activities but not at all a formal smell since its too playful but not sexy nor compliment garnering. I like to layer it with 4711; yes with that, they actually pair really good together since the powdery BBJ serves as a great carrier for the nice smelling but lacking longevity 4711. Scent 6.5/10 sillage 7/10 longevity 7/10 versatility 4/10 overall for me its a solid 6/10

A strong citrus opening of mandarin orange peels, with the sharpness tamed by bergamot. For the first 10 minutes I almost exclusively smell the orange, with only the lightest spice detectable. After 10 minutes more spice and parts of the base start to emerge. The opening citrus hangs on for almost the entire duration of the scent, just getting lighter by the hour, very long for any citrus accord. The dry-down is typical of a sandalwood-musk-patchouli base, but I still get whiffs of small remnants of the orange right up to 5 hours later, from up close. Good sillage, average longevity. It's a daytime casual/weekend wear scent for me. Edit: The review was done in the summer and I think the warmer weather helps to tame Baby Blue Jeans, warmth flattens it out a little. In cooler weather it can be very strong, a lot more floral and vanilla come through. Very tart.

"Mix one tablespoon of sherbert, and mix with lemonade..." and you have the basic scent of Baby Jeans! It's not often I wear this, as you have to be in the right mood. It's light, airy and for summer mornings when you want to smell like sparkly lemons! Albeit, it doesn't last long.
