Guess Seductive Homme Blue

Guess Seductive Homme Blue is a spicy, fresh masculine from Guess, composed by Guillaume Flavigny and released in 2012. Spice is what everyone describes; around half also find it green, woody, fresh, floral or citrusy, so the overall feel is a peppery aquatic rather than a plain blue scent.

It opens with black pepper and cardamom, warm and sharp, over a bright wash of citruses; a caviar note adds a salty, slightly mineral strangeness that stops the top from being generic. The heart is cool and breezy, sea notes bringing a marine freshness and geranium a green, rosy edge. The base of sand, cashmirwood and moss is soft and dry, like warm skin after a day outdoors.

Most wearers report moderate longevity, with about a quarter finding it weak, and sillage is intimate to moderate, so it stays close. It is voted for spring and summer in equal measure and more for daytime. It suits casual, warm-weather wear for someone who likes freshness with a bit of pepper.
