GUESS 1981 Indigo Men’s Eau de Toilette Spray 3.4 oz (100 ml) — Fresh Fig & Woody Cedar for Daytime Wear

GUESS 1981 Indigo is a woody-aromatic men's eau de toilette that blends fig, blue lavender, cedar, musk and warm amber for a modern, sunny signature.

Created by the house of GUESS and shaped by perfumer Christine Hassan, this 3.4 oz (100 ml) spray balances green, creamy and slightly tropical accords. It layers fresh fig and blue lavender over a woody cedar-and-musk base, while touches of tonka, coconut water and iris add subtle sweetness and powdery depth. The overall effect is approachable and versatile—best suited to daytime wear and warmer weather when its lighter, bright facets can shine.

What does GUESS 1981 Indigo smell like throughout the day?

The opening greets you with fresh, slightly fruity fig and airy blue lavender. Mid-notes bring creamy coconut water and iris, adding a soft, gourmand character, while the drydown settles into cedar, musk, tonka bean and amber for a warm, lingering finish.

• Top: fig and blue lavender for immediate freshness
• Heart: coconut water and iris for creamy, powdery sweetness
• Base: cedar, musk, tonka bean and amber for warmth and longevity

How should I wear GUESS 1981 Indigo and when is it best?

This fragrance works well in daytime and warmer-season settings thanks to its bright, airy opening and unobtrusive drydown.

• Ideal for spring, summer, and mild autumn days
• Light to moderate sillage—suitable for work and casual wear
• Apply to pulse points for steady, balanced diffusion

How long does the fragrance last and how strong is it?

As an eau de toilette, its longevity is moderate—typically lasting several hours depending on skin type and environment. Projection is noticeable but not dominant; expect a friendly presence that softens toward the end of the day.

• Longevity: moderate—several hours on most skin types
• Projection: light to moderate, suitable for close-quarters and outdoor settings
• Concentration: eau de toilette (3.4 oz / 100 ml spray)

Who is this for: GUESS 1981 Indigo is aimed at men seeking a fresh, modern daytime scent with a hint of tropical sweetness and a warm woody base.
