SPRING/SUMMER FRAGRANCES TO INDULGE IN
Part 3: MARINE/WATER FRESH for SPRING/SUMMER
by Denise Petals
The lightest way to wear perfumes, water fresh, aqua-tic perfumes are well loved during summer because of their fresh, sense soothing ingredients.
Please note that I have not given ratings for these because the scents reviewed here are some of my personal favourites and they all deserve 4 and more stars:)
MARINE/WATER FRESH FOR SPRING/SUMMER
Acqua di'Gio
Armani's perfume was launched in 1995 and it was a big success because of its light, fresh and marine smell. Packaged in a light green bottle reminiscent of the sea, Acqua di Gio has some of the freshest aquatic notes and as most people mistake aquatic scents as citrus scents, they are not because Acqua has no notes of citrus. Its very difficult to describe such scents, mainly because they are very simple and fresh. This is a must have for a casual summer day out!
So What I think about this scent and why I think it makes a good Spring/Summer Scent:
Simple, light, refreshing, long lasting. Love it.
Davidoff Cool Water Woman
Another simple scent, water fresh and clean in a marine blue bottle. Something I only wear for the summer, this is one of the few aqua scents available in the market.
So What I think about this scent and why I think it makes a good Spring/Summer Scent:
I still prefer Armani's scent to this one, but this is refreshing and nice.
Acqua di'Gio Homme
Yes, I do wear the guy's version too! Its too irresistable, a nice lingering fresh blend of notes that are sure to keep one smelling clean yet powerful! The ladies version is much more aquatic compared to this, this one can be seen as closer to the citrusy side, yet with some water fresh notes in. Perfect Summer Perfume.
So What I think about this scent and why I think it makes a good Spring/Summer Scent:
Who cares its made for men! Its good stuff!
Other Favourite Spring/Summer Scents in the Aqua/Fresh section include:
Amazone- Hermès (one of the earliest scents made of water fresh notes)
Davidoff Cool Water Homme- (I know alot of women who wear this scent, freshness with a hint of wood)
Hugo Woman- (not exacly water fresh but is very light and clean)
