The Body Shop Fijian Water Lotus is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2014. Fijian Water Lotus opens with Mandarin, settles into a heart of Sea Water, Rose, and Lotus, and dries down to a base of Litsea Cubeba. The Body Shop's Fijian Water Lotus carries a Favourite verdict, a fresh-led wear.

This discontinued Body Shop gem is a surprisingly divisive aquatic, with fans praising its fresh, serene vibes and detractors finding it cheap or even nauseating. A true 'your mileage may vary' scent, but a much-loved summer staple for many.

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Casual Sport
Also Works:
Office

Its light, fresh nature and moderate performance make it ideal for casual wear, especially during the day. While generally inoffensive enough for the office, its moderate projection means it won't be a standout for formal events, and many find it perfect for post-shower or warm weather use.

About

Fijian Water Lotus opens with a burst of bright mandarin, quickly diving into a refreshingly cool aquatic heart. Notes of serene lotus and a soft, delicate rose intertwine with a salty marine breeze, evoking images of tropical waters. The scent gently settles into a clean, subtly sweet base, with the citrusy hint of litsea cubeba lingering in the background.
