Lotus Heaven
I generally don't gravitate towards floral fragrances. They tend to be too heavy for my nose; too cloying, too overwhelming.

That being said, I absolutely love this fragrance!! It is a heady floral that somehow still has a airy/watery feel to it.

At first spray, you get a delightfully airy mix of lotus and watermelon. It is fresh and watery. Within ten minutes, the jasmine and lily start to enter the scene, and the florals really start to bloom. Light musk and pepper dance in the background, adding depth and a touch of spice to balance the whole blend out.

This one is stunning. And it last FOREVER. I have both the EDP and the Parfum. Both have the sillage and longevity of the gods. Seriously - the lasting power on BOTH of these is no joke.

The EDP has a lighter, more watery feel. The lotus and watermelon pop a lot more in the EDP.

The Parfum is the concentrated version. It is a lot heavier on the jasmine and lily, but still retains the watery feel, while perhaps less airy. I save this one for hot summer nights out.

Guiding Water (both the EDP and the Parfum) has found a permanent spot in my spring/summer rotation. It envokes the vision of a naiad sunning herself on the shores of a still lake filled with lotus flowers.

Heaven in a bottle.
This fresh aquatic scent has slight fruity floral undertones but is light and airy. Like smelling water Lilly’s at the botanical park. It is great in the warmer weather and has great longevity lasting 14 hrs on skin and several days on hair/clothes. It’s unisex but leans a bit femme. It’s a 9/10 and a safe blind buy. Expensive but worth every penny.

I think this perfume is ok, not great.

It’s fresh, fruity, aquatic, with an incredibly beautiful flask. But the perfume itself lacks complexity. It’s nothing special on my skin, and in fact reminds me of much less expensive perfumes, such as Minajesty. They’re not the same, don’t misread that. They smell of the same synthetic quality.

I had really high hopes for this one, and unfortunately I’m now covered in the scent after my shower, which means I must tolerate it all day or get wet again.

Sillage: 12-18 inches
I’ll update this review with duration later on.

Verrrry reminiscent of 90s aquatics. If you’ve got L’eau d’Issey, you don’t need this. Neither new, nor good. Synthetic.

Aquatic and fresh with fruit notes. It’s not as light on the skin as you’d think though.
