The full profile.
Think toasted almond milk tea with caramel: that is Lalique Soleil. It opens with bitter almond, cardamom and mandarin orange, moves into jasmine, milk coffee and pear sorbet and settles on frankincense, cashmeran and iris. It leans feminine, though anyone can wear it.
This fragrance is best in spring, summer and fall and is easy to wear day or night. Reach for it for casual days, the office and date nights. Released in 2019.
In the community's experience it lasts roughly a working morning or afternoon, and projects to about arm's length.

Scent profiles of the picks
For Lalique Encre Noire (Eau de Toilette, 2006), expect dark, earthy vetiver like wet cypress wood: cypress and vetiveryl acetate up top, cashmere wood and musk underneath. Lalique Amethyst (Eau de Parfum, 2007) comes across as juicy berries with soft rose powder, with blackberry and blackberry leaf at the start and musk, woods and vanilla at the base. Lalique Encre Noire A L'Extreme (Eau de Parfum, 2015) reads as smoky cypress and vetiver over resinous dark woods, opening on cypress and elemi resin and drying down to patchouli, sandalwood and Siam benzoin.
