Guy Laroche Drakkar Bleu is an aromatic fougere fragrance for men. This is the 100ml bottle.
How It Smells
The opening is bergamot alongside lemon and lavender, which is the brightest part of the wear and fades within the first half hour. Underneath, coriander with juniper berries and rosemary carries the middle, and this is what most people will actually smell on you. What remains at the end of the day is cedarwood over patchouli and fir balsam, closer to the skin and warmer than the opening suggested.

Why You'll Love It
- Safe to wear in a shared office. Its soft to moderate sillage reaches the person next to you rather than the whole room.
- The cedarwood base gives it a grown-up finish once the opening settles.
- Approachable enough for a first bottle, at a price that does not punish experimenting.
- Presents well as a gift. Guy Laroche is a name the recipient will already know.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this Guy Laroche Drakkar Bleu original?
Yes. Perfume Philippines has sold 100% original, imported fragrances online since 2012. Every bottle is fresh stock, and cash on delivery is available nationwide.
How long does Guy Laroche Drakkar Bleu last?
Moderate, around 4 to 6 hours. Spraying onto moisturised skin, and onto your shirt collar as well as your wrists, helps it hold longer in humid weather.
Is Drakkar Bleu good for the office?
Yes. Sillage sits at soft to moderate, stays close, so it stays within conversational distance instead of filling a shared room. One to three sprays is plenty in an air-conditioned space.
How does Drakkar Bleu compare to Guy Laroche Drakkar Noir?
Guy Laroche Drakkar Noir is the closest comparison, the 1982 classic it flanks. Drakkar Bleu is built on a cedarwood base with bergamot up top, so judge them on that: if you want the cedarwood direction, this is the one. Both are stocked here when available, so you can compare prices directly.
