Taskeen Marina

It was a blind purchase and has become one of my favorite summer scents. For me/on me, it's a perfect vacation scent 😊 It evokes this mood for me: Morning/afternoon bright sunlight, a cool, wet-salty breeze coming from the sea, which brings the scent of the surrounding plants with it, you walk carefree on the seaside promenade, the wind catches your clothes, you look at the bright sun, the cool mist rises from the sea. My other summer favorite is Elie Saab Le Parfum Resort Collection 2017, it's also a real happy summer scent, but it's fruitier, sweeter, more tropical, more playful, maybe even more youthful because it's main character is rather tropical fruitiness, Teskeen Marina is somehow more ageless, more reserved, cooler, fresher, the slight scratchiness of the grapefruit evokes the cool-salty sea mist in the scent. For me, it's an instant love, I even ordered an extra one, just in case it becomes unavailable. 😊 It's really hard to find a true summer happiness scent that lasts at least somewhat, I don't like coconut or particularly watery scents, and most summer scents fade from my skin in seconds. This scent performs quite well, I would say it has medium longevity and sillage if I spray it a lot, which I do with peace of mind due to its great price 😊 I'm very glad I found it, it will definitely remain one of my favorites for many summers.

First of all, let me copy the notes I find on other websites because I am smelling more than what is listed here. Top Notes - tropical orange and grapefruit, pear Heart Notes - bergamot, jasmine and peach Base Notes - musk, black currant and amber, watermelon This is a very summery scent. You may not like it, but I don't see anyone hating it. It can smell a little soapy for some. Also, this feels a little synthetic, but nothing to be concerned about. It feels so fresh. The watermelon is definitely there. The fragrance has a fruity feel to it, but more like a fresh squeezed mixed juice, where the fruits are picked just when they are ripe; nothing over-ripe or tart. Last around 5 hours on skin. Both male & female will enjoy this scent. Blind buy safe.

This fragrance is a fresh, fruity lovers dream! This smells like an ice cold orange, grapefruit, and peach LaCroix! It is bright citrus that doesn't lean too sweet or too masculine with a super fresh, aquatic quality that also doesn't come off like men's cologne like aquatic often does. This is a summer scent you can actually wear outside without fear of becoming a bee magnet! I'm in love with this!

One of my new favorite summer scents. Its light, refreshing and clean. You can easily layer it with a stronger fruity scent as this one does not last very long. (Maybe 3hrs before skin scent when worn alone.) I have paired it with EOS Strawberry lotion and LOOOOOOVE IT! Indomitable is good to layer under it as well. I will be getting a back up of this.

A citrusy, juicy fresh fragrance for those summer days! I'm loving it nowadays, light me up instantly after wearing this fragrance! lasts for about 4 to 5 hours on me!
