Freshwater Lavender

Freshwater? Hardly! This is the rich scent of a persistent sea: warm salty waves lapping the shore in steady rhythm, and sturdy lavender bushes growing in the dunes alongside beachgrass and prickerplants. So clean and so marine!

It took a couple of wearings to get the feel of this one.. It seems to be a very well blended Aquatic/Aromatic with good sillage and normal longevity for an EDT. If it has a calone note I do not really detect it..YAY!

Definitely smells like Elizabeth Arden's Green Tea Lavender, which I've owned before. This is just really nice, fresh, and clean, and a little comforting. Perfect for summer. Longevity is alright for the mist. After a while the lavender dies down a lot though.

I found the eau de toilette strength to be one of the most pleasant aquatic fragrances I've ever experienced but, unfortunately, I won't be wearing it. It is, without a doubt, the most misnamed scent ever. It contains very little lavender and a noticeable salt note, which makes "freshwater" completely inappropriate and misleading. That being said, it is very pleasant, slightly sweet, fresh and would be a serious love if it did not contain the unexpected salt. It's one of my least favorite notes in the universe, but if you enjoy, or can at least tolerate it, you'll find this to be a lovely, well formulated, affordable aquatic...even if, like me, aquatics aren't really your cup of tea. Out, damn salt!
