Eau d’Ikar’s lively opening is composed of citrus fruit and a green tonality reminiscent of galbanum. The heart pairs iris, jasmine and orange pekoe tea with lentisk absolute, a resinous, green and woody note. Present in several forms, lentisk, the house says, grants ‘leathery, woody and spicy’ facets. The drydown blends rock rose (cistus labdanum) with sandalwood and vetiver.

History

In Greek mythology, Icarus is famous for having flown up towards the sun. At Sisley, the spelling of Icarus’s name has been modernized to Ikar. Eau d’Ikar is a fragrance that expresses men’s urge for adventure. ‘For us, the name represents poetic ambition,’ Sisley explains. A fragrance for men that might well appeal to women too.

Range

Eau de Toilette 1.7 and 3.4 oz.

Bottle

The transparent rectangular bottle has been carved with abstract patterns. It lets the juice’s golden hue shine through. The bottle is topped with a silvery cube that acts as a spray button. Designer: Bronislaw Krzysztof.

Did you know?

Do you wonder how many times a day you should put fragrance on? There are no hard and fast rules about it. Just put it on whenever you feel like it. Still, you should realize that perfume won't "hold" as well on dry skin as on oily or moisturized skin, so you might need to apply it more often in that case.
