The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2005 and crafted by perfumers David Apel and Pierre Negrin, Ralph Lauren Blue is a fragrance that marries freshness with warmth. The composition opens with the zesty brightness of grapefruit and melon, which cuts through the lush floral heart notes like gardenia, jasmine, and lily-of-the-valley. A green, woody base of vetiver, oakmoss, and suede anchors it, giving a sense of grounded elegance. This fragrance is a proof of its creators' ability to balance lightness with depth.
Apply Ralph Lauren Blue to your pulse points for a lasting effect. The grapefruit top note is bright but fleeting, so ensure you layer it with the deeper base notes by giving yourself time to let the scent develop on your skin before heading out.
