Extremely normal

Dylan Blue was my first real perfume and my introduction to this insane world. I tested several fragrances in the perfumery and the only one that halfway appealed to me was Dylan Blue. By "halfway appealed" I actually mean just that, it didn't really blow me away, but I finally wanted a decent perfume and bought Dylan Blue anyway because of that.
The more I wore Dylan Blue, the more I liked it, kind of fresh, kind of tart and kind of sweet. For me, the whole thing smelled at the time just like a normal perfume has to smell, from nothing too much, from nothing too little, from everything a little.
Today I know how extremely normal Dylan Blue actually is. In itself, it falls into the same category as a Dior Sauvage, a YSL Y or a PDM Percival. All of these scents smell to me, just like Dylan Blue, primarily fresh and tailored to the mass market. However, each of these has a little unique selling point. Sauvage has a heavy ambrox component, Y has a sage and apple blend, and Percival has a fir note. Dylan Blue has nothing like that for me. No edges, no corners, and nothing special either. The epitome of mass compatibility. For the life of me, I can't imagine the smell bothering anyone in the slightest.
If that's what you want, Dylan Blue is perfect. I do not want to make a statement with my fragrances, but just smell good for the masses, however, even me Dylan Blue is now just too pale. However, I still like the smell itself and I get excited every time I smell it somewhere as it reminds me of a damn good time. The price, especially for the larger bottles, is definitely appropriate for what you get, but the shelf life is unfortunately not really good with me.
