About This Perfume

Antonio Banderas The Icon Eau de Parfum smells like cool grapefruit, lavender air, suede leather warmth. It opens with grapefruit, black pepper and juniper, moves into lavender, suede and cypress and settles on benzoin, patchouli and vetiver. It leans masculine, though anyone can wear it.

This eau de parfum is best in spring, fall and winter and is a daytime scent. A good pick for casual days and the office. Released in 2022.

In the community's experience it lasts a solid half day on skin, and stays close to the skin.
