Lys (2006)
by 06130 Zéro Six Cent-Trente

While this smells nice, I think this is more feminine than masculine. A little bit of lemon, a little bit of floral (I detect the rose note most) and a little bit mossy. If this had the dark note of olibanum I'd consider this a chypre. Good but not for me.

I smelled 06130 Lys briefly during a marathon sniffathon at Aedes and my chief recollection was that it was a pretty cedary lily fragrance that did not last long at all. To me, if you are going to do lily, then for heaven's sake, do it right and trot out Serge Luten's Un Lys or Editions Frederic Malle's Lys Med.!

Here are the notes per Luckyscent: water lily, cédrat/lemon, bergamot, mandarin, coriander, grapefruit and blackcurrant, cardamom, verbena, thyme, nutmeg and rose, musk, vetiver, sandalwood and moss.
