Eau Ressourcante

Dear Readers, I and my beloved mother and sister have been faithful clients of the house of Clarins products for years and its my humble heart that I will leave a review of Ressourcante. As I stated I have been a faithful of Clarins exquisite skincare line and make up that are made by the finest of botanicals , it was a boon to my heart to discover they also made fragrances too and I discovered Ressourcante ,took a try and I was enrapture by its elegance botany ,so I bought it and I was sadden I could not get the perfume but the lotion, the sales girl was a true sweetheart and she gave me 3 vials of it and in turn, I bought more Clarins, so we both had a happy ending !. The scent is truly heaven on earth, with its rich fragrant botany mixture united in harmony made it very powerful!. it never caused a obnoxious pain inducing experience to those who were around me On me , I put this one at a friends house where I stood over a weekend , and I took a shower before heading out on the town, and I put the lotion upon my skin and once I clothed myself and open the door, she came flying into the room smelling the air and asking me is the fragrance mine or coming from outside ?, I said no its me and I showed her jar of Ressourcante, and she became engulfed by it's aroma when I let her try some , she had to have it ! and we headed shopping afterwards, for she comment the fragrance both in bottle and lotion was the closes scent she imagine Eden, the lost paradise would have smelled like". I must agree it is very beautiful ,the scent isn't a the type that has a human character or intention to it, for the fragrance has the scent of nature in all is glory and majesty and tis serenity nature scent, it's great buy and its office friendly . I recommend this Clarins products if your truly into organic products that are truly worth your hard earnings, its a very good investment and lovely experience, I thank the cosmos for creating our earth,the plants and Mr Clarins and his staff for creating such marvelous work , Viva Clarins !.

After the ubiquitous red bottle came this serene blue pebble; Eau Ressourcante I've been having a flat few days lately, I'll be blunt, I'm sick of all the shit thats going on in the world and I want to shut myself away from everything. I've been wearing this a lot lately as a means of distraction, I'll get back to this in a bit. Eau Ressourcante is, like Eau Dynamisante, a treatment fragrance which basically means its a light EdT/EdC which promotes various aromatherapy benefits, in the case of Eau Ressourcante, these benefits are: sereneity, balance and freshness, a promise that it definately does deliver on. The opening is fresh and herbacious with basil and lemon, the more woody notes emerge after half an hour before drying down to a fresh, clean woodsy musk which oddly has a slight violet-y tinge to it, there is a light aquatic quality to Eau Ressourcante and one reviewer mentioned "its like stepping into a chamber full of freshly sliced zuccini and cucumbers", I get that 100%, I also agree with the reviwer that stated that water could smell like this, because honestly, it smells how a refreshing shower in the summer feels, its gorgeous. The longevity is a little better on me than Eau Dynamisante meaning I can just about get 6hrs out of it, the silage is close to skin but its nice, because I get little wafts of it during the day. Its 100% unisex, perfect for summer, office/general workplace safe due to its light inoffensive nature and a perfect dumb reach scent. Eau Ressourcante allows me to escape from the world, when I spray it on I'm no longer in cold, wet Wales, I'm at a calm waterfall somewhere warm enjoying the feeling of the water hitting my skin and the warm, smooth stones under my feet. Repurchase 100% I just wish they had an acompanying shower gel as well as the body lotion.

I get mostly a really high quality fresh iris bomb, tea, and cedar. I was really not expecting to love this one as I thought the basil might throw it off, though I enjoy the smell of fresh basil on its own. Very finely blended like finely milled powder, but not musky (thank god). I can't stop respraying it and I even sprayed some directly on my face which wasn't particularly moisturizing, but did feel refreshing. I only added this to my order because I was curious and was already ordering Dynamisante. It could be I get tired of this after awhile, which happened to me with some others like G*psy Water, but for now it's love at first sniff and my new daily! It doesn't hurt that it is super affordable on the discount sites too. Wow. I am so grateful to the fragrance community for turning me onto the Clarins line which somehow I had never tried despite having kind of a large collection at this point. I like fresh scents, and notes like teas of all kinds, incense, aromatics, iris sort of scents. What I normally wear every day is a fresh iris and a fresh tea scent layered. I go between a few different ones for either accord, but now I can just stick with this one that gives me the best of both yet together. For anyone who chases fresh iris scents, like myself, this is a must try.

I purchased this over a year ago to use as an aromatherapy fragrance. I love to use this at bedtime and anytime I feel the need to be comforted. In me, this scent inspires a sense of peace and trust in the universe, that "everything is as it's meant to be". The overall effect is quite spa-like and it is aptly named (Eau Ressourcante translates to "revitalizing water" in English.) I love the dry down of iris, benzoin and cedar. If you are testing this fragrance let it dry down before you judge whether or not to purchase it since some find the initial burst of lemon and basil off putting. It only takes about 15 mins to get past it. This is also a wonderful daytime fragrance especially in spring and summer. Longevity is about 3 hours on skin and more than double that on clothing. I think it is quite office appropriate except in absolute "no scent" settings. With Clarins ingredients, I feel much safer spraying this on skin than I do other fragrances. It is very reasonably priced here at $60CAD for 100ml.

Not one summer is spent without this beauty in my arsenal. It has been a staple in my collection for almost 10 years now, and my husband is still excited whenever he smells this on me, because it brings back memories of our first years together. Clean, crisp, a perfect zen scent. There is the slightest sweetness, maybe from the iris or benzoin, it is hardly detected but makes the composition slightly more feminine but still a wonderful unisex. The hotter the weather, the more it shines. We come from the middle east, where it easily gets to 40 degrees Celsius. The humidity from the sea brings out something in this scent that is absent in dry air. It somehow gives the illusion that you are standing at the feet of a fountain and water mist is spraying all over you. I wish more people knew about this scent. A perfect clean and fresh "out of the shower" scent that is a blessing in the heat.
