About This Perfume
Think cool apple, basil, spicy lavender water: that is Ted Lapidus Wild Attraction. It opens with apple, basil and star anise, moves into carnation, cinnamon and provençal lavender and settles on cistus absolute, patchouli and tonka bean. It leans masculine, though anyone can wear it.
This eau de toilette is best in spring and summer and is a daytime scent. A good pick for casual days and the office. Released in 2020.
In the community's experience it wears for a few hours, and stays close to the skin. Plan to reapply on a long day.
Is it right for you?
- Best for: anyone after something fresh and aquatic for casual days.
- Sample first if: fresh is new territory for you.
- Skip if: you want one spray to last all day.
Around $24.
