What does L'Eau d'Issey pour Homme Solar Lavender smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are rated moderate, so it stays with you through the day without filling a room. Most voters pick spring and summer, and daily wear, leisure and business are the settings named most often. Many describe it as masculine and modern.

It opens with the spicy bite of Sichuan pepper. In the heart, Provençal lavender brings a floral, fresh note, and cedarwood in the base settles it onto a dry, woody footing. Montale Intense Pepper and Cartier Déclaration Haute Fraîcheur have a close profile.
