Guy Laroche 2025 EDP
Drakkar Bleu
Guy Laroche Drakkar Bleu is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2025. Drakkar Bleu opens with Bergamot, Apple, and Spearmint, settles into a heart of Violet Leaf, Lavender, and Sage, and dries down to a base of Patchouli, Oakmoss, and Canadian Fir Balsam. Guy Laroche's Drakkar Bleu carries a Favourite verdict, a green-led wear.
Drakkar Bleu is a divisive one. While some hail it as a value-for-money, modern blue-green scent, many critics dismiss it as a synthetic, uninspired 'nothingburger' that fails to live up to its heritage. It's a contemporary freshie with a definite YSL Y vibe, so don't expect classic Drakkar DNA.What our verdicts mean →

Scent Profile
Composition
Timeline
Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear
Best Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Best Occasions
Its fresh, clean, and moderate projection makes it suitable for office wear and casual daytime activities. However, its 'shower gel' vibe and perceived lack of depth push it down for dates and formal events.
