JOEL LIM, GROUP HEAD SOMMELIER AT PARK90

HIS FRAGRANCE:

Calvin Klein Eternity Aqua for Men, created as a modern, fresh interpretation of the house’s acclaimed Eternity line. It opens with cucumbers, citrus, lotus flowers and green leaves. The middle notes are Sichuan peppercorn, plums and cedar and the base consists of woods, patchouli and musk.

Lim uses only the eau de toilette version as it is “lightly perfumed, seamless and suits my profession.” He avoids anything that’s too strong and musky or an eau de parfum as both are way too concentrated. The Eternity Aqua EDT’s light and sweet citrus, stone fruits, and oceanic freshness remind him of his favourite riesling, a wine that typically features notes of white peach and minerality.
