About

Splash hits you with a bright, juicy, and refreshingly clean burst of pear, bergamot, and lemon, instantly awakening the senses. The initial tartness softens quickly into a delicate, airy freesia that floats effortlessly. As it settles, a clean musk emerges, grounded by the subtle warmth of teak wood, giving it an unexpected depth for a 'splash' fragrance. It's a sweet, fruity delight that never becomes cloying, maintaining a fresh and aquatic feel throughout.
