Louis Vuitton Afternoon Swim is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2019, created by Jacques Cavallier-Belletrud. Afternoon Swim opens with Bergamot, Orange, Mandarin, and Ginger, and dries down to a base of Ambergris. Louis Vuitton's Afternoon Swim carries a Favourite verdict, a citrus-led wear.

This is a juicy, natural orange bomb that brings all the summer vibes, but the price-to-performance ratio has people in a chokehold. Prepare for a glorious, albeit fleeting, citrus burst that you'll either adore enough to reapply constantly or dismiss as wildly overpriced orange juice.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Summer

Spring

A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Casual Sport
Also Works:
Date

Given its fresh, light citrus profile and generally poor longevity, Afternoon Swim is best suited for casual wear, holidays, or sports. It's too fleeting and summery for formal events or most office settings, though a quick reapplication could make it work for a casual date.

About

Imagine the zesty, bright burst of a freshly peeled orange, sweetened by mandarin, then spiced up with a subtle hint of ginger. As it settles, a clean, almost oceanic ambergris peeks through, giving it a cool, refreshing depth that evokes sunshine and sea breezes. It's a photorealistic citrus, pure and simple, like a sophisticated glass of effervescent orange cordial.
