Identity and Release History

Discover A Lab on Fire Almost Transparent Blue, a fragrance released in 2013 as an embodiment of the brand's experimental spirit.

This eau de toilette from A Lab on Fire – the "burning laboratory" from New York – invites you on a journey through freshness and depth, reflecting the philosophy of the house that boldly breaks the boundaries of perfumery art.

The name, reminiscent of transparent blue shades, hints at purity and modernity, perfectly fitting into the brand's niche position, known for its artistic and innovative approaches.

Positioning and Wearability

Created as a unisex fragrance, Almost Transparent Blue is suitable for everyone who appreciates balanced and multifaceted compositions.

Its medium trail provides a delicate but lasting presence, ideal for everyday wear, office meetings, or casual evenings.

Thanks to fresh citrus and cozy aromatic accents, it is particularly good in the spring and summer months, adding lightness and energy to any look.

It is recommended to apply it to pulse points on the skin for better development, avoiding excess to preserve the airiness of the composition.

Creators and Influence

Behind the magic of Almost Transparent Blue lies the talent of Bruno Jovanovic, a perfumer known for his ability to combine traditional elements with modern notes.

His work on this fragrance enhanced the reputation of A Lab on Fire as a pioneer in niche perfumery, emphasizing the brand's commitment to creative experimentation.

This release became an important milestone in the house's collection, demonstrating how innovative ideas can give rise to accessible and inspiring fragrances that attract both newcomers and seasoned connoisseurs.

Perfume information

Description of the composition

The notes pyramid in Almost Transparent Blue begins with a sparkling duo of lime and yuzu, creating an instant burst of freshness reminiscent of sunny citrus groves.

At the heart of the composition, aldehydes add an airy and slightly metallic texture, while thyme weaves herbal and soothing notes, balancing between brightness and warmth.

On the base, cedar and hinoki form a solid woody foundation, providing stability and an earthy character, and musk finishes everything with a silky enveloping aura, ensuring a smooth transition and longevity on the skin.

Persistence
The persistence of a fragrance is determined by how long it can be felt. It is a characteristic associated with ingredients that evaporate slowly. Persistence depends on the physical properties of the perfume ingredients—mainly their volatility and environmental factors such as temperature and humidity.

Sillage
Imagine a light cloud of fragrance that, like an aeroplane trail, remains in the air after your appearance. This is the sillage - a subtle or vivid imprint left by the most diffuse element of a perfume composition. The sillage can be almost invisible when it is felt only by you and those around you. Or it can be so expressive that its presence is noticed even long after you have left.

Complexity and depth
The complexity of a fragrance is the number and variety of notes that create a unique composition. A complex fragrance contains many different notes that reveal themselves on the skin. The depth of a fragrance is the richness and intensity of the fragrance. Fragrances with a deep composition include heavy and powerful notes that stay on the skin longer and affect others over long distances.

It's like a breath of fresh air on a hot day! 🌊 The scent is simply incredible: it combines cool aldehydes and bright citruses, while herbal notes add a special twist. The base with woody and musky accents makes it truly memorable. Although it disappears after half an hour, those moments are pure magic! ✨ It's just perfect in the heat, and the bottle is so light and compact, it's easy to take with you. Plus, the brand offers 10ml mini-versions, which you can find in Europe (in Russia, it's better to check online) I bought my favorite Almost Transparent Blue at Colette in Paris last summer, and it was a wonderful gift from Matvey Yudov 💖
5/5

The fragrance is decent, of course, but it's not worth idealizing it so much. Yes, it's fresh and invigorating, but these cold aldehydes... They seem to try and overshadow everything else. The citrus note, yes, it's there, but it lacks depth. It lasts on the skin, but after an hour, it becomes too close, almost clinging. I don't know, maybe I'm just not in the mood, but I expected more. Overall, I can't say it's a real find

This perfume is simply awful; it just hangs in the air without blending with it. It feels like it's just stuck and swaying, as if it doesn't know what to do. On the skin, it also behaves strangely, not like a fresh breeze, but like some sticky mass that doesn't want to absorb. The incense under this jelly-like lemon nonsense sounds so bad that you just want to run away. It's not exciting, but rather irritating and causes discomfort 😤
5/5

In this fragrance, I caught icy notes, as if they're floating in a citrus drink. It's fresh, clean, sometimes even too sterile. It's real chemistry, synthetic, but so interesting and easy to wear, appealing ))))
4/5

The perfume is indeed very bright and leaves a long trail. Surprisingly, its scent isn't immediately noticeable, but only after some time interacting with a person. Sometimes, the interlocutor has already left the room, but their scent still lingers in the air, as if it's stuck there. It's like it "hangs" in space ))
