About This Perfume

Swiss Arabian Essence De La Vie smells like bright lemon and mint with creamy vanilla warmth. It opens with green apple, Italian lemon and mint, moves into ambroxan, geranium and tonka bean and settles on cedarwood, vanilla and vetiver. It leans masculine, though anyone can wear it.

This eau de toilette works across all four seasons and is a daytime scent. Reach for it for casual days.

Wearers report that it lasts a solid half day on skin, and projects to about arm's length.

Is it right for you?

  • Best for: anyone after something fresh and aromatic for casual days.
  • Sample first if: sweet is new territory for you.
  • Skip if: you dislike citrus fragrances.

Around $40.
