The weather is beginning to heat up and   for those who  yearn for  a vacation,  we welcome fragrances  that  evoke sun and sea. Phaedon Paris has introduced two, both composed by Pierre Guillaume.

 Imagine a seaside spa… Eau Simple Cucumbre  seems made for the shade, cooling and relaxing, with Fresh mint leaves, freesia, cucumber accord and the warmth of cashmere wood, dry cedar and skin musk.

I am a fan of well-done tropical scents and Sable et Soleil appeals to me since I love coconut in perfume. Balancing the sweetness and floralcy of Lemon blossoms, jasmine, coconut milk, vanilla, and tonka bean is a salty accord.  Breezy white musk and creamy sandalwood are at the base.

Pierre Guillaume has proven his skill with reinventing  neo aquatics with his Collection Crosiere under the Parfumerie Generale brand and I am looking forward to both releases.

Each are 3.3 oz. $100 for Eau Simple Cucumbre  an Eau de Toilette and Sable et Soleil is a haute concentree eau de parfums $160  available www.phaedonparis.com and at luckyscent.com

    Eau Simple Cucumbre seems more fresh, aquatic & ozonic than Sable et Soleil. A combo of both will be awesome.

    I am absolutely no fan of typical aquatics/ozonics – but last year I was fortunate to sample both Long Courrier and Entre Ciel et Mer and really loved them. The notes on these sound enticing, hope I get a chance to try them!

  • Phaedon’s Pluie de Soleil is my occasional “it is too dang hot outside and I need a vacation” spritzer. Sable et Soleil also sounds like a fun one!

  • They both sound nice and worth a try, but I think I would really get use out of the Concombre in the heat.
