Launched in 2019 by Alfred Dunhill, Century Blue is a Woody Aromatic fragrance that captures the essence of contemporary sophistication. It opens with a bright citrus burst from mandarin orange and bergamot, immediately evoking freshness and energy. The heart of black pepper and ginger adds an unexpected warmth and spiciness, while neroli brings a subtle floral touch. This contrast continues in the base notes, where earthy accords of oak moss and patchouli blend with the salty tang of sea salt, creating a complex yet balanced scent that feels both modern and lasting.

Application Tips
Apply Century Blue to pulse points and let it sit close to your skin for best effect. The citrus notes are bright but fade quickly, so reapply if you want to maintain that initial freshness. Its woody base ensures longevity, making it ideal for daytime wear.
