What does Eau Fraîche (2026) smell like?
Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays close without overwhelming a room. Voters pick it most for leisure, daily wear and the office, with sport also among the common uses. It leans neither masculine nor feminine.
Lemon and petitgrain give a bright citrus lift, while tarragon and basil add a green, spicy edge. Lavender brings a soft floral touch, and patchouli and vetiver set a dry, woody base. Chypre and creamy accents round off the freshness. Castle Forbes 1445 and Piazzetta di Portofino Acqua da Toeletta have a close profile.
