What does L'Eau Majeure d'Issey - Shade of Sea: Day 3, 2:47PM smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are rated moderate, though the vote count is small, so treat these as a rough guide. It is positioned as a men's fragrance, and its light, fresh character suits warm days.

It opens with lemon, bergamot and bitter orange for a bright citrus lift, while rosemary adds a green, spicy touch. In the heart, frangipani brings a soft, creamy floral note, with sea salt and clary sage keeping the watery feel. The base of ambergris, cedarwood and sandalwood settles into a sweet, woody finish. Jil Sander Sun Men and Lanvin Éclat d'Arpège pour Homme have a close profile.
