What does L'Eau d'Issey pour Homme Eau d'Été Summer Edition 2012 smell like?

It opens on yuzu and mandarin orange. In the heart, cardamom and sage add a spicy, green edge, and it settles into amber and vetiver. The accords read fresh, citrus and aquatic, with floral and fruity touches softening the edges.

Both longevity and sillage are rated moderate, though the number of votes is small, so the picture is not firm. It has been discontinued. Issey Miyake L'Eau d'Issey pour Homme (Eau de Toilette) and Zara Infinite Wave have a close profile.
