Baldessarini Ambre Vs. D&G Light Blue

Hi BNers....Please help me choose. I'm looking to add another frag to my collection this week, and I've been looking at theses two; Baldessarini Ambre Vs. D&G Light Blue. I know both smell good...and I like them both. But which of the two do you think would easily stand out....and smells better in your opinion.

NB: I'm going to make my decision based on your opinions (I hardly do this, I usually buy what I like and and what smells good to me). This time around I'm going to buy the frag BN reviewers recommend to me. Thank you all!!!

Other suggestions are welcome!

Anything > Light Blue, IMO (harsh I know). It's a bonus that Ambre is quite nice too and will definitely stand out more than Light Blue.

Agree with daz - Light Blue is completely uninspired and virtually anything is preferable. Ambre is typically generic/synthetic Boss but still (slightly) better than the other option.

Of the two: Baldessarini Ambre but not a fan of either of these personally.

B.A. without a second thought.

It's not hyped, it doesn't have as much as reviews as it deserves and is too seldom mentioned imo.

Ambre By a long shot..... There are many other fragrances out there like Light blue. There is only one Ambre and it is done right.

Although I have only smelled Ambre a few times I would say it is your choice. I put Light Blue in the category of cologne for people who are afraid to wear cologne. To me it's bland, boring and fleeting. Just my opinion

I'd take Ambre- a slight bit more maturity, powerhouse, edge and complexity, plus longevity and sillage tend to be a bit better too.
