The Irresistible Fresh Brother...
This young spritz differs from its older sibling
literally like day and night. While the older LYPH is heavy and smoky,
this one behaves lightly, fresh, and carefree. There is also a woody note
present. From the blend emerges a whimsical and carefree scent that
for me represents a modern evolution of aquatic fragrances.
To my nose, the freshness seems to have a latent olfactory similarity to
Aramis New West without bringing the intensity found there.
A diluted Green Irish Tweed could also be considered in hints (
I knew I had smelled parts of this LYAS somewhere - just need to open my closet. :))
But the beauty of LYAS is its modesty. What its
aquatic relatives do through loudspeakers, it whispers through the room. And
it does so without appearing weak or flimsy.
Owning a bottle is definitely worth considering
(it would actually pair well with its more melancholic brother).
By the way, my rating rises by one and a half points to 9.0.
The additional point I give for what I see as
the recreation of the aquatic fragrance direction! Maybe it’s not that new (after all, there are 75,000 fragrances here, of which I know 99.9 %!), but I want to see it that way.

It reminded me more of French Lover than my beloved GIT;-)! If it had lasted longer on me, I would have kept it too.

Despite the aquatic notes, I can't find this scent to be light or diluted compared to GIT. In my opinion, it also has dark tones and sweetness. - But after this first test, I'm still not quite sure about it; I need to try it at least once more.
