by Giorgio Beverly Hills
Giorgio Beverly Hills Blue is a light, refreshing aquatic floral with a distinctly feminine and summery character. It opens with bright citrus and fruity notes of mandarin orange and guava, layered with hyacinth and a crisp, aquatic water lily. The heart features rich tuberose and jasmine that lend a lush, slightly sweet floral core, while the drydown includes clean, soft musk and a subtle driftwood-aquatic undertone, balanced by the faint warmth of oak moss. The fragrance is universally praised for its clean, refreshing feel, reminiscent of summer days by the sea, with a projection that stays moderate and subtle throughout the day. Its scent evokes memories of classic aquatic perfumes like Davidoff Cool Water and Acqua di Gio but remains distinct, offering a smoother, more floral sophistication. It stands out for its affordability and impressive longevity for an EDT, with some users reporting wear for up to eight hours and even scent lingering into the next day. No strong synthetic or chemical smells are mentioned by most reviewers—though a few note a fleeting initial dryness or mildness that fades quickly into a beautifully balanced composition.
