The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2012, Eau du Soir 2012 by Sisley is a fragrance designed to evoke the transition from day to night with its blend of fresh and warm notes. Created by perfumers Hubert d'Ornano, Isabelle d'Ornano, and Jeannine Mongin, this composition opens with bright citrus — lemon and mandarin orange — that give way to an aromatic heart featuring juniper and patchouli. The base notes of oakmoss, black pepper, jasmine, and ylang-ylang create a warm, earthy embrace, making it both crisp and comforting.
Apply this fragrance with two sprays — it has a bright citrus opening that lasts about an hour before transitioning to its warmer base notes. The musky warmth carries well into the evening without overpowering, making it ideal for an after-work transition.
