What it is

  • Name: Afternoon Splash Extrait de Parfum

  • House / Maker: LXR Perfumes (UAE‑based) 

  • Concentration: Extrait de Parfum — higher concentration, so richer, more intense, likely better longevity. 

  • Style / Vibe: Bright, citrusy, energizing, with some spice and warmth. Designed to evoke sunshine, sea breeze, high energy afternoons. 

Olfactory Composition: Notes & How It Smells

Here's a breakdown of its notes and how the fragrance develops over time:

Stage Notes What It Smells Like / Impression
Top / Opening Mandarin Orange, Sicilian Orange, Bergamot  A sparkling burst of citrus: very juicy, zesty, fresh, bright. It feels like sunshine + clean air. The citrus is the star at first.
Heart / Mid Ginger shows up (subtle spice)  The fragrance warms slightly; ginger gives a bit of spicy zip to balance out the citrus sweetness. It turns less one‑dimensional.
Base / Dry‑Down Ambergris, some musk / salt‑marine vibes and warmth. Adds depth: a salty / oceanic edge, mild sweetness, smooth warm undertones. Gives staying power and makes it linger in a more refined way.

Smell & Experience

  • Overall character: Fresh → vibrant → warm. It starts off energetic and citrusy, then softens with spice, and closes with a warm, elegant dry down.

  • Freshness & brightness: Very good. The citrus opening is what you get first and what makes the fragrance feel “alive”.

  • Warmth & complexity: The ginger + ambergris add complexity and prevent it from feeling like just a “splash of citrus”. The base gives it more substance.

Longevity & Projection

  • Because it’s an extrait, it tends to have decent longevity. Retailers advertise “long‑lasting freshness” and “radiant sillage” for many hours. 

  • The projection is best in the opening and heart. The dry down tends to settle closer to the skin, especially in hotter or humid conditions.

Best Wear & Situations

  • Seasons: Ideal for warm weather — spring, summer, or mild autumn. The citrus and freshness make it uplifting in heat. Might be a bit bright for cold winter evenings unless layered.

  • Occasions: Daytime wear, casual to smart‑casual situations, outdoors, social gatherings, vacations, or anytime you want something energizing and mood‑lifting. Could work for evening too if paired well and you like citrus scents.

  • Gender / Unisex: It leans unisex. The citrus + spice + warm base make it quite versatile.

Strengths & What to Keep in Mind

Pros:

  • Gives a fresh, energetic vibe without being too simple — spice and base bring depth.

  • Good “feel‑good” fragrance, uplifting.

  • Extrait concentration helps with lasting more, gives better performance than lighter citrus colognes.

Potential Weaknesses / Considerations:

  • Citrus scents tend to fade somewhat faster on skin (even with high concentration) — though the base helps.

  • If you dislike strong citrus / bright notes, the opening might be sharp.

  • In very hot or humid weather, the warm base might become more noticeable and shift the balance.

  • If you want something very dark, smoky or heavy, this is not the direction — it stays more in the bright‑fresh arena with warm grounding at the end.
