Sugar

Fresh · 1999

Fresh · Citrus · Floral

Fresh Sugar is a fresh women's fragrance for spring and summer days, where citrus and flowers soften into a vanilla sweetness. Most voters pick summer and spring, and leisure, daily wear and the office are the most mentioned settings. Longevity and sillage are moderate, so it stays close without being heavy. The vote counts for these two are small, so treat them as a rough guide. It reads feminine. It opens with orange, bergamot and lemon for a bright citrus start. At the heart, heliotrope, petitgrain and white lily add a soft, slightly powdery floral touch. The base of vanilla, caramel and marjoram turns sweeter and gourmand, though the green, fresh feel never fully fades. Guerlain La Petite Robe Noire Ma Robe Pétales and Kenzo Couleur Kenzo Jaune-Yellow have a close profile.

Sugar Lemon / Lemon Sugar

4.9

Fresh · 2004

Fresh · Citrus · Fruity

Fresh Sugar Lemon / Lemon Sugar is a fresh, citrusy women's fragrance with a fruity sweetness. It opens with yuzu, mandarin orange and Italian lemon, a bright, sharp citrus cluster. In the heart, ginger flower, orange blossom and lychee blossom soften that edge and add a floral, fruity sweetness. The base leans on caramel, with oakmoss and Indian sandalwood giving it a lightly woody, earthy footing. A synthetic streak among the accords lends the whole a clean, glossy feel.

Cannabis Santal

6.4

Fresh · 2006

Fresh · Citrus · Green

Fresh Cannabis Santal is a men's fragrance that pairs citrus freshness with a green, earthy body and a faintly sweet edge. It opens bright and fruity with bergamot, Brazilian orange and black plum. In the heart, cannabis, rose and patchouli set a green, earthy tone; the base of vetiver, musk and chocolate softens it and ends on a gourmand sweetness. Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, though few people have voted, so these readings are tentative. It is classed as masculine. Two perfumes with a close profile are Schlossparfumerie Wolff & Sohn Stuttgart Impérial Santal and Liaison de Parfum No Matter What.

Hesperides Grapefruit / Hesperides

6.9

Fresh · 2007

Fresh · Citrus · Floral

Fresh Hesperides Grapefruit / Hesperides is a unisex scent that centres on fresh citrus, softened by floral and green touches. The top notes are grapefruit, Italian lemon and mandarin orange, so it opens bright and crisp, with citrus leading. In the heart, lotus and jasmine join the bergamot and give it a gentle floral side. The base of rhubarb, musk and peach adds a fruity, lightly sweet and woody footing, while the fresh, green character stays through to the end. Fragonard Bigarade Jasmin and Au Pays de la Fleur d'Oranger Neroli Blanc L'Eau de Cologne have a close profile.

Citron de Vigne

7.3

Fresh · 2008

Fresh · Citrus · Fruity

Fresh Citron de Vigne is a unisex scent led by citrus, fresh and lightly sweet, with a woody base underneath. Its longevity and sillage are rated weak by those who voted, though the vote counts are small, so these ratings are only a rough guide. It stays calm and light, sitting close to the skin, and reads comfortably on both men and women. It opens with bitter orange, neroli and pink grapefruit bringing the citrus forward. In the heart, lemon grass, rose and jasmine tea add a soft, fruity freshness, while almond brings a light sweetness. Patchouli, sandalwood and amber settle into a warm, woody base.

Sugar Lychee

6.7

Fresh · 2006

Fresh · Citrus · Fruity

Fresh Sugar Lychee is a light women's fragrance that pairs bright citrus with the sweet, fruity note of lychee. Grapefruit, lime blossom and Italian lemon give it a sparkling, crisp start. In the heart, lychee, lotus and freesia take over and the scent turns softer and more fruity. At the base, tonka bean, sandalwood and amber add a little depth and a woody footing under the sweetness. Voters find both longevity and sillage weak, so it stays close to the skin and keeps quiet. The vote count is small, so this is a tentative picture. With its fresh, sweet character it suits those who want an easy, light scent for daytime. Versace Eros Energy and Hugo Boss Hugo Red (Eau de Toilette) have a close profile.

Brown Sugar

6.5

Fresh · 2011

Fresh · Citrus · Floral

Fresh Brown Sugar is a unisex fragrance that pairs bright citrus freshness with a fruity, floral sweetness. The top is açaí, mandarin orange and lemon, a fresh opening. In the heart, peach nectar, magnolia and honeysuckle push it towards fruity and floral. The base of caramel, amber and cypress settles the sweetness onto a powdery, creamy, slightly resinous ground. Longevity is rated moderate and sillage weak, so it stays close to the skin and leaves a quiet trail. The number of votes is small, so these ratings are a first impression rather than a firm measure. It suits men and women alike.
