Something Blue

by Ann Gottlieb , Frank Voelkl

Oscar de la Renta Something Blue is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2013, created by Ann Gottlieb and Frank Voelkl. Something Blue settles into a heart of Lily Of The Valley, Stephanotis, Narcissus, and Litchi, and dries down to a base of Musk. Oscar de la Renta's Something Blue carries a Favourite verdict, a white floral-led wear.

A divisive scent, Something Blue is either a clean, effervescent floral or a green, soapy nightmare. While its gentle character might suggest a bridal fragrance, its sharpness earns a mixed reception.

About

Opens with a sharp, green burst of linden blossom and citrus, quickly mellowing into a heart of delicate lily of the valley and stephanotis. The underpinning of white musk rounds out the composition, leaving a fresh, slightly powdery floral trail. Reviewers detect ambergris and cashmere wood in the drydown, adding depth without heaviness.
