In the Clutches of the Lotus Flower
My journey through the calming and natural "Rituals" continues - this time with "Karma," a fresh laundry lotus flower with an incredibly soothing aura.

I usually don't have much affinity for transparent little lotus flowers near ponds - but "Karma" is pleasant. Not different. But pleasant. Damn pleasant. Freshly washed. Straight. Clean. Slightly minty, with a tiny aura. A signature scent that carries happiness and contentment within it. Unmistakable. This philosophy is embedded in many Rituals - and in my opinion, it couldn't be more commendable. Softest lemon musk. A little bergamot without any fuss. Pure, full of nature, on a mission and with a vow: I make the world a better, more peaceful place! More hip than hippie. Who wants to hate?! Better go on a date!

Bottle: long and nice
Sillage: Ritual-soft
Longevity: Ritual-clear - 5 hours

Conclusion: Karma is not a Bitch! "The Ritual of Karma" is a serene meadow and pond scent completely devoid of star pretensions. Heartfelt world improver. Greta Pondberg.

Never Fall in Love with a Limited Edition!
Karma. My going-to-bed scent. The pillow behind me gets sprayed every night. I love the scent of Karma, it captivated me immediately, and if there were a perfume, I would pay the price. It comes quite simply with the white lotus - and the wonderfully balanced amazing bergamot! And after a while, it smells really great, it remains warm and comforting. Unfortunately, the scent doesn't last very long on me; it's just a tiny hint that can be sensed. And that's too little for me. But that doesn't stop me from spraying my bed, pillow, and sofa blanket (and myself!) and so on. Often to the dismay of my family.

Nevertheless: I managed to snag one of the last bottles in our store, I guard it like my own eye, like my treasure! Karma was truly a fantastic limited edition!

Great for the price
I have several fragrances from Rituals, but Karma is my favorite.
Unlike the others, this one is not so sweet. It smells a bit like freshly washed laundry.
Floral fresh. I also smell mint.
After a fresh morning shower, spraying it all over is a great way to start the day.
Unfortunately, the scent fades very quickly. However, the fragrance is really affordable, so you can reapply it multiple times.

Summer Fragrance for the Beach
Fresh yet sweet - cleanliness paired with a sweetness in the drydown that cannot be compared to any fruit or flower. The fragrance was originally planned as a limited summer collection - fortunately, it has been continued due to its success. Karma is my scent for the public pool, by the lake, and most of all at the sea! Why only at these places? Unfortunately, the longevity is far too low, but given the price, it’s not a shame to spray it all over your hair and body. Oh, and it’s also great as a pillow spray or generally as a room fragrance. If you like Karma, you probably have quite a few from the collection.

The Love That Quickly Fades
I love this fragrance composition. So fresh, zesty, but also a bit spicy in my opinion. If this scent were available as a perfume, I would get it right away.
Unfortunately, the short longevity frustrates me immensely, as I would love to smell this scent on me for hours. It is the perfect summer fragrance for me. A walk on the beach, the sound of the sea in my ears, and behind me the tropical rainforest.

A scent that brightens up every gray day, chases away bad moods, and brings a smile to your face - simply good karma!

Feeling down? Spray Karma ;-)
Like freshly showered and moisturized.
Modern soapy.
Short-lived.
Reapplying is fine at this price.

Like with Dao, the lotus is simply beautiful. Finally, no Neroli scent, but lovely bergamot. Soft, creamy, great. This is how my summer smells.

A Bed & Body Mist. Refreshing, fruity, elegant, aquatic, subtly floral & harmonious. The lasting power of up to 6 hours satisfies me.

It annoys me sometimes when scents are only described as "smells fresh," but this one really does smell fresh.

It's a warm summer evening, a fresh breeze is blowing
I moisturize my sun-kissed skin and fall into the freshly made bed.

I always use it when I want to smell super fresh after a shower. Smells like soapy water.
