First Instinct Blue

Spicy, sweet and aromatic in equal measure, First Instinct Blue by Abercrombie & Fitch is a 2018 men's fragrance composed by Yves Cassar, with woody, ambery and citrus sides noticed by about half of people.

Apple and bergamot give a crisp, juicy opening, and pepper and cardamom add a cool, peppery spice that keeps it lively. Lavender and rosemary bring the aromatic heart, herbal and clean, in the style of a classic fresh fougère. The drydown turns warmer and sweeter, with tonka bean adding an almond-like softness, amber a golden glow and sandalwood a smooth, creamy wood.

It is a versatile, approachable scent that works for daytime, the office and casual evenings, comfortable in spring and autumn. It suits someone who likes fresh, slightly sweet men's fragrances that feel clean and youthful without being sharp.
