Blue Seduction
Blue Seduction by Antonio Banderas is a masculine-leaning eau de toilette from 2007 in the budget price tier. It opens with melon, bergamot and mint, moves into cardamom and marine accord and dries down to musk, amber and cashmere wood. Expect around 4 hours of wear, and it projects softly.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Melon Soft, watery sweetness. Often paired with aquatics.
- Bergamot Sharp citrus with a faint bitter edge. The opening of about half of all men's fragrances.
- Mint Cold and tingly. Great in small doses, toothpaste in large ones.
Heart
- Cardamom Cool, aromatic spice with a eucalyptus lift. Smells expensive.
- Marine Accord Generic 'ocean' — salt, air and water. Clean and uncomplicated.
Dry-down
- Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
- Amber Warm, golden and resinous. Not a real material — a blend that glows.
- Cashmere Wood Soft, fuzzy, slightly musky wood. Adds a blurred warmth.
