Agua Fresca Adolfo Dominguez 1993

Carnival Costume in Pee(e)?
I got the scent during a souk purchase. Thanks to Deimos for the quick shipping and the great samples.
Of course, I had to test it right away and am now seriously considering whether I should dress up as a toilet block for Carnival. After all, I would have the matching scent, wouldn’t I?
There would definitely be a great risk of confusion for hordes of drunk people.
Sounds pretty sobering at first glance, buuut!
Toilet blocks do have their right to exist. Without them, some places would smell significantly worse, that much is certain. Citrus fruits are apparently commonly associated with cleanliness and freshness. This seems to be an instinct, and so people cheerfully pour citrus freshness into cleaning products. It can be detrimental for perfumistas, buuut!
Here we go.
Conversely, this scent is a cleaning product for the skin.
Fresh, clean, pure. Agua Fresca indeed.
What it also is?
Unfortunately, nonexistent on my skin. Even for an Eau de Toilette, the performance is quite weak. However, it performs rather well on clothing. On my skin, I can only perceive the lemony, zesty top note. On clothing, something green and herbal joins in, with juniper dominating.
I think I’ll skip the carnival costume due to the mentioned source of danger.
But perhaps the purchase will pay off in another way. A spray or two of Agua Fresca on the wardrobe, and you can save yourself the dry cleaning.
The clever way to wash!
