Kenneth Cole Blue is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2015, created by Mathieu Nardin. Blue opens with Citrus, settles into a heart of Sea Water, and dries down to a base of Amber and Cedar. Kenneth Cole's Blue carries a Favourite verdict, a marine-led wear.

This is a serviceable, budget-friendly aquatic freshie, best suited for hot weather. It's often compared to Versace Man Eau Fraiche but doesn't quite hit the mark for everyone, with some finding it a bit generic or synthetic, and performance can be an issue.

About

Kenneth Cole Blue opens with a vibrant burst of citrus, immediately bringing a refreshing and energetic feel. This quickly transitions into a dominant marine heart, evoking salty sea air and cool ocean breezes. As it settles, a clean, slightly sweet cedar and amber dry-down emerges, adding a touch of warmth and grounding to the aquatic freshness. It's a straightforward, refreshing mix, ideal for a bright, clean impression.
