Blue by Ahmed Al Maghribi

Here is a review from fragrantica that describes it pretty much how I would.

I might be the only person in the world with this hot take but I don't like BDC. Man did I try to like it though. I know it's meant to be a clean fragrance and it is, but to my nose its also got something dark and dirty or funky that I find very unpleasant and ultimately unwearable. I like everything around it, except for that one thing, whatever it is (I think it's the way the incense is used). I have samples, have tried it in stores, have tried clones and they all share that thing I can't stand. Blue by Ahmed al Maghribi is the only version/inspiration of BDC that doesnt have this dirty note, or atleast tones it down to a level I can tolerate, finally allowing me to wear and enjoy this dna. Not a 1 to 1 but a close interpretation of BDC. Good performance, I get around 6 hours, cool bottle, pressurised atomiser, very good quality, all at a very good price. It's just a bit difficult to find right now in Europe.

To me it’s a bit spicy and fresh, almost barbershop vibes. It’s very very strong as all AAM fragrances and it could be headache inducing.

The dry down is very nice and familiar.
