Absolute perfect citrus scent for hot summer days! Indicated for countries that temperature rise over 30 ‘C, like Italy, Greece, Spain etc. Please get informed before you comment.

Perfectly pleasant summer fragrance. Fresh, clean, summery, pleasant. Good for any age. Perfect for a man (or woman) who wants to smell great in the summer but doesn’t care much about fragrances and isn’t looking for anything stunning. Suits its purpose.
I also get good longevity on this, 8+ hours, which is nice.

Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue Italian Zest Pour Homme it’s nothing Just Lemon flavour.

I tried it and bought it on the spot for my 14 year old…it is very fresh, and the base stays fresh yet a bit warmer…I feel it is very appropriate for s teenager, as it isn’t heady, or overly mature…it is lighter than the light blue Intense.. and rather similar..it would be perfect on a summer vacation too..The juice really makes you think of summer, of a cool breeze..really liking it..so does my son.

I have been rocking this tangy juice recently, and it’s beginning to appeal to me, the subtle drydown is quite pleasing to my nose and while it’s performance is not perfect, it still lingers on thru the day. A flanker that is going to be overlooked and it shouldn’t the citrus addition to this fragrance make it better that the original light blue…IMO.
al022 – :
this one has a very beautiful zesty citrusy opening … but it doesnt last long… has very weak performace.
Meyne617Diobtetty – :
I think this is the best version of Light blue at the moment. As others have written, it opens up with a blast of delicious citrus, than goes to the direction of the original. The citrus weakens but the fragrance keeps some of its zestiness throughout the dry down.
The performance is average but definitely better than the original.
Beautiful summer scent. 9/10
Saint_Hix – :
I would say that out of all the zesty citrus scents in this line I like this one the most but it is tiring, another citrus scent. It’s good I just can’t comment on performance.
mes.ltd – :
Very nice smelling. It is close to the original just more polished and smooth. Its like you added a super fresh but smooth fresh, not that piercing zesty lemony opening to the eau extreme version. Lasts a bit more than the original, but that nice opening is gone within first half an hour. For me, a redundant release but being a summer limited one, its okay.
mmn09 – :
This is a galant effort, I have to give it some credit. I thought this kind of thing to be a waste of time, the original light blue was ultimately forgettable but didn’t offend me in any way. This zest version is actually okay because, although not groundbreaking in any regard, it knows what it is and doesn’t have any of that generic and despicably, mixed up cynicism of many second rate and redundant flankers.
The grapefruit, lemon and mandarin in here are very pleasant in the opening and the base is a light, musky powder poof! I mean it’s no Chanel Allure homme edition Blanc but it’s very wearable and surprisingly long lasting for such a subtle scent. I think I’m going soft in my old age as historically, this scent would’ve got the usual Houdini scalding, but I’m in a good place and really digging on citrus and fresh fragrances at the moment, so this gets off easy. It’s okay by me. What I don’t like is the cheapness of the bottle. Is it me or does the font and all that writing on the bottle look a bit tacky? Not to mention the puke yellow stopper.

It has a beautiful opening full of citruses. Grapefruit, bergamot and mandarine. With that order. There is also spicy rosemary and the original Light Blue DNA much toned down. This is why I like it. Noce and safe scent for summer daytime. Performance is moderate-average.
outratobemo – :
Just perfect summer edition! Thank you D&G!
mahgo – :
At the beginning there is a lot of citrus. When it is gone after 10 minutes you get light blue pour homme. It has the full vibe of the original. Silage and lasting power are weak. If you like the original light blue it will be for you.
prof101 – :
Really generic citrus fragrance, which doesn’t develop much on the skin. There’s certainly very little incense that I can detect in the drydown. It’s not exactly offensive, but there are literally hundreds of cheaper fragrances in this genre that are similar if not better. Longevity isn’t great either, so there’s very little reason to bother with this one.
debt settlements – :
This one is nice. Got that vibe of the original. But more citrus notes.kinda gives that aquatic vibe to it as well. Very nice scent. Will be digging this on hot summer days.
Металыч – :
Really in love with the box. It doesn’t take itself too seriously like other cheap designer fragrances do
ooddfyebqzk – :
On paper it’s 50% AdG Absolu, 50% Hermes Eau de Citron Noir. Will try on skin
CLIERINHIRE – :
Ah yes, I see the troll votes are in.
It’s so odd to think there are people who troll on a fragrance website. I mean I sort of understand how for example some kid who has an Xbox would go to a gaming site and downvote some Playstation games… But fragrances? Really?
Anyway Italian Zest is practically the original Light Blue but with an extra T H I C C citrus opening. Sillage & lasting power are moderate at best, but it’s a really nice scent. Ignore the cheap looking bottle/box design and give it a try.
siavatula – :
Very week. Skin scent after 30 minutes
vakka146 – :
I really think this is a fantastic scent. The opening is super duper lemony with the light blue DNA noticeable in the background. As much as I love the opening and the presentation, to me the dry down is very similar to Light blue intense (which I own already) so I most likely will not be getting a full bottle. A super refreshing scent for the upcoming warmer months!
михаил0987654321 – :
I have to give it a few wearings and do a complete side by side with the original. It reminds me of the original but with more of a citrus blast from first spray. You still get whiffs of it within the first hour. Definitely brings a warm spring/hot summer vibe
vitaly707 – :
tried today at sephora. i wrote in a old topic that could be a great summer citrus scent. yes is it. but is only this. a very very strong citrus scent and nothing else.no other notes.only grapefruit,mandarin orange and bergamot.nothing else. not other from the first spray to the end. fantastic performance. but this scent goes in only one direction. only for citrus lovers. not for me. is too citrus for my taste.9/10 for who loved citrus scent.5/10 for me. after 3 wash of hand the parfum is here. incredible. real sud italian agrumes.
Panchik88 – :
A yellow fragrance called Light Blue?! Surely this deserves a more appropriate name or colour.
GoampagogBiob – :
@IronBitters To me it looks like the font you would see on cheap salad dressing…which makes me kind of like it ironically.
bullet2209 – :
Is it just me or are the notes listed here identical to the original Light Blue? Could this be what the intense version was supposed to be? More zesty, modern, but keeping that core DNA of the original. Still, to me, living Stromboli is the best Light Blue from the line.
cambridge – :
The font of “Italian Zest” speaks “I’m not important. I’m just one season thing”. Hope the smell is actually good.
MashaOrlova – :
This definitely looks interesting.. I have rarely seen a fragrance with a name like “Italian Zest”.. I am however surprised that noone has mentioned that the note breakdown provided is pretty much the same exact note breakdown of the original Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue Pour Homme which leaves me wondering if this is indeed a new flanker or just the same old Light Blue juice in a limited edition bottle? I guess we will find out sooner or later..
lll284JeomiWogkig – :
After being let down by the sheer saltiness of Light Blue Intense, I really am looking forward to this one. Looks like some interesting notes there. I’m especially excited to see incense.
Can’t wait to try this!
11122010 – :
Wow!! That bottle and those notes! Must have. I love the light Blue line up.
Лесук – :
The notes are definitely interesting ,on paper it sounds pretty great for a summer fragrance . Hope I can find a place to buy or someone selling 🙂

CK One Shock taught me not to judge a book by its cover. In spite of the horrible bottle, I’ll give this one a fair shot.
