I’m slightly obsessed with Marc Jacobs, and I’ve been having a love affair with his Pear splash for a couple months. It’s the perfect summer scent– light and fruity, yet a hint of lusty musk that is great for a summer evening.
At first I was hesitant to try a pear scent– I’m not particularly fond of the fruit. So I was quite surprised when I sampled the fragrance and realized it was multi-dimensional.
Sephora’s description puts it best:
Marc Jacobs Pear Splash captures the sweet nectar of summer. Deliciously fresh and ripe, it tempts the senses with its savory aroma. Uniquely delectable, pear is a delicious summer indulgence to enjoy. The fruity, woody fragrance opens with the tantalizing aroma of fresh, ripe pear invigorated with bergamot and lemon zest. The heart of juniper, gin accord, and freesia imparts a sweet richness. Musk, teakwood, and a soft amber round out the balance of notes with smooth softness and warm sensuality.
Marc Jacobs contemplates the refreshing power of beauty in this new limited-edition collection of body splashes softly scented in chilled sorbet flavors. Deliciously cooling, Marc Jacobs Splashes inspire us to enjoy life’s simple pleasures. Light enough to splash or spray lavishly all over the body, the crisp scent awakens the senses and tempts the palate.
Notes:
Pear, Freesia, Teakwood.
Style:
Sweet. Sparkling. Refreshing.
I’ve been hearing some buzz about Marc’s new Gardenia scent, so I think that’s next on my list.
