Icon Racing Blue

Icon Racing Blue, released by Alfred Dunhill in 2021, is a fresh woody fragrance for men with a salty, marine feel. Woods lead the way, with spice, freshness, amber warmth and citrus all strongly present and a hint of flowers in support.

The opening is bright and zesty: bergamot and lime give a clean citrus snap, while cardamom and coriander add a cool, aromatic spice. Neroli brings a light, slightly bitter floral note. As it develops, sea salt and driftwood evoke a breezy coastal mood of sun-bleached wood and mineral air. The base rests on ambroxan and ambergris, which give a smooth, radiant, slightly salty warmth, deepened by sandalwood and a touch of patchouli.

This is an easy, modern choice for daytime: the office, travel, sport or weekends outdoors. Its fresh, mineral character suits warmer weather especially well, and it should appeal to men who like clean, blue-style fragrances with a woody backbone.
