    Hugo Boss Dark Blue has sentimental value because it starts my passion for parfums when I was a teenager

    The very first fragrance i bought with my first payhcheck from the navy in 2000, i remember it being really sweet and quite a strong smelling fragrance, i loved it. Granted its been 20 years lol so i might well be wrong lol

    One of my favourite night out spring/summer/early autumn frag. Sometimes, not always, it turns into a chemical lash on my skin, but I kind of always return to Dark Blue. Totally off the radar.

    Great video Stephen. Dark Blue rarely gets any metion online but this was my very first signature scent in my early 20s. Lead me to Boss Bottled and later Bleu de Chanel which was my signature til 5 years ago. Still a special scent for me.

    La usé cuando sse puso de moda por varios años, es espectacular la compré hace poco y el olor me trajo lindos recuerdos, pero siento que no huele igual, hay algo en la reformulación que la hace un poco diferente, y ya no dura tanto en piel como cuando salió, creo que le rebajaron calidad, seŕia lindo si boss ,la volviera a lanzar original😊

    Dark Blue was my signature fragrance many years ago. Great fragrance but unfortunately it has been probably reformulated. I mean, it was a sort of powerhouse, long lasting, had very good projection but now it is watered down a lot. It doesn't perform as good as before.

      @@s2jackson sadly I don't know. The fragrance was launched in 1999, so I guess early 2000s. Don't know exactly when it has been reformulated or when they did the last reformulation ( I think they have reformulated it several times ). If I remember right it was still a good performer in 2007-2008

    Hi Steven,
    One thing lingering in my mind for long,
    I already own Dior Sauvage EDT, should I buy Dylan Blue or not?
    If the vibes are pretty same, do you think it makes Dylan Blue redundant?
    Would Dylan Blue smell as Dior Sauvage does?
    I am trynna have a versatile scent..
    Please advise.

    • @LifeWithMusicChannel
      @LifeWithMusicChannel 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I personally feel they don't smell too similar. I would say dylan blue is more sweeter while Sauvage EDT is a little more spicier. I personally would get 1 million by paco rabanne
