The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2005, Tommy Summer Cologne 2005 by Tommy Hilfiger is a refreshing take on the summer scent, created by perfumer Annie Buzantian. The fragrance opens with a bright and zesty lemon verbena that cuts through the sweetness of orange and mint, creating an invigorating aromatic freshness. As it settles, lavender adds a subtle floral touch to the composition, which then transitions into woody notes and orris root, grounding the scent in earthy warmth.
Apply this fragrance to pulse points for a lasting effect — it blooms after about an hour. The citrus top notes are bright but fleeting, so reapply as needed throughout the day to maintain that fresh, invigorating aroma.
