A blessing on hot summer days
I've been using this fragrance for 3 years now, whenever it's hot and humid. Which is often the case here on the Upper Rhine in summer.
The Fresh Splash starts off alcoholic. You have to wait about 30 seconds for a fruity, sweet aroma to take over from the alcohol.
In the top note, I find that it smells very similar to L'Imperatrice. In a weaker form, but clearly recognizable. (Perhaps due to the melon in the top note)
Then it goes in a different direction.
After 5 - 10 minutes, the fruits fade and the fragrance becomes aquatic, slightly floral and retains its clear watery note until the end. The ooze in this fragrance is not powdery, but clear, invigorating and delicately creamy. The musk and woods in the base carry the wateriness and clarity through this EDT for about 4 hours. Then it is barely perceptible. For a summer EDT, that's absolutely fine. I also like to spray it on when it's hot. I think it's great that the fragrance is not only briefly refreshing, but that the fresh feeling lasts for 2-4 hours. For me, this is one of the really good drugstore fragrances.
