Sicilian lemon and green apple over white rose and cedar - bright, dry, and unmistakably summer. It suits Gulf heat better than almost anything at this price, because a dry citrus stays crisp where a sweet fragrance turns heavy by lunchtime.
Sharp and effervescent in the first half hour, settling into a soft woody-floral that sits close to the skin rather than projecting.

The opening. Sharp and slightly bitter rather than sweet, which is what keeps it from cloying in heat.

Sits alongside the lemon, adding a crisp fruit note that is more tart than sugary.

The dry woody base that keeps a bright citrus from disappearing within the hour.
Dolce & Gabbana's Light Blue is the fragrance most people picture when they think of Mediterranean citrus, and its longevity as a bestseller is not an accident.
The opening is Sicilian lemon and green apple - sharp and slightly bitter rather than sweet, which matters more here than in a cooler climate. Sweet fragrances amplify in heat and turn heavy; a dry citrus stays crisp.
Underneath sit white rose and cedar, and the cedar is what gives the fragrance a base to sit on rather than evaporating within the hour, which is the usual fate of bright citrus compositions.
As an Eau de Toilette it is lighter in concentration than an EDP, which suits its character - this is meant to be re-sprayed through a hot day rather than applied once and endured.
Best in spring and summer, in daylight. Apply to pulse points and reapply in the afternoon; an EDT citrus is designed for exactly that rather than expected to last twelve hours.
It is the reference point for Mediterranean citrus, and in Gulf heat it outperforms almost everything in its price band - a dry, bright citrus holds up at 45°C where a sweeter fragrance turns cloying by midday.
Spray generously onto pulse points — an Eau de Toilette citrus is meant to be reapplied through the day.
Four to six hours on most skin, which is typical for an EDT citrus. It is designed to be reapplied through the day rather than to last from morning to night.
Particularly well suited. Dry citrus fragrances hold up in heat where sweeter, heavier compositions amplify and turn cloying.
It is marketed to women, and the citrus-woody structure reads as unisex to many wearers. The men's Light Blue is a separate, drier composition.
EDP carries a higher concentration of fragrance oil, so it lasts longer and projects more. EDT is lighter, which suits a bright citrus and hot weather.
