Eclat d’Arpège Summer 2007

A bright, summery fragrance with a fresh citrus opening of carambola, lemon, and pink grapefruit, complemented by litchi and a soft tropical fruit accord. The heart features delicate floral notes of rose, jasmine, and violet, though these are generally described as fleeting and understated, barely noticeable on most skin types. The base settles into a soft, powdery musk with vanilla and a subtle cedar note, adding warmth and a faintly dry, clean character. The scent is consistently described as light, refreshing, and suitable for daytime wear during hot weather. Longevity is moderate, with many noting it fades after a few hours, but its sillage remains moderate to strong, making it noticeable without being overwhelming. The overall impression is of a low-conflict, effortless scent with no bold personality or deep complexity — ideal for those seeking a simple, wearable floral-fruity with a clean, downy finish.
