Thais by Antonio Puig is a fresh, aquatic floral perfume with a clean and youthful character. It opens with watery, ozonic, and green notes that lend it a crisp, almost weathered freshness, reminiscent of a cool morning by the sea. As it develops, the middle notes of lily-of-the-valley, rose, and violet leaf create a powdery, delicate white floral core that gives the fragrance a soft, slightly nostalgic quality—think early summer days and light spring breezes. The dry down is delicate musk, clean and faintly sweet, offering a gentle but persistent presence that lingers on the skin for several hours, especially for those who appreciate its natural effervescence. The perfume is universally associated with spring and summer, making it ideal for daytime wear, particularly in warm weather. There is a strong sense of memory and emotional attachment tied to this scent—many users recall it from their teenage years or early twenties, often connected to moments of innocence, freshness, and simplicity. Despite some comments about a sharp or green opening, most agree on its pleasant, unobtrusive sillage and moderate longevity, which can extend well into midday or even early evening for some.
