About This Perfume

Jil Sander Sun smells like creamy floral lemon sweetness over vanilla. It opens with orange blossom, bergamot and fruits, moves into heliotrope, ylang-ylang and carnation and settles on vanilla, benzoin and musk. It leans feminine, though anyone can wear it.

This eau de toilette is best in spring, summer and fall and is an evening scent. A good pick for date nights. Released in 1989.

Wearers report that it lasts through a full day, and projects to about arm's length.

Is it right for you?

  • Best for: anyone after something gourmand and powdery for date nights.
  • Sample first if: sweet is new territory for you.
  • Skip if: you dislike floral fragrances.

Around $34.
