Lost Summers

Lost Summers, a 2024 release from the British brand Sentier, is mainly floral, with smaller and equal musky, leathery and citrus touches.

The name evokes late-summer nostalgia, and the scent is soft and luminous. Bergamot and nectarine open it with a fresh citrus lift and a juicy, velvety fruit sweetness. Neroli brings a green, slightly soapy orange-blossom brightness. In the heart, lily of the valley gives a dewy, green floral note and freesia a light, peppery sweetness. Musk wraps everything in a clean, skin-like softness, which may explain the faint leathery impression some people notice in the drydown.

The profile suggests spring and summer, daytime and the office, as well as warm evenings. It is meant to be worn by anyone who likes light, airy florals with a fruity, sunny opening and a soft musk base, and who prefers a gentle, nostalgic scent to anything heavy. It is an easy, uncomplicated everyday fragrance for warm weather.
