Agua Fresca (1993)
by Adolfo Dominguez

Fresh citrus and fruits that's aquatic and clean.

fresh blast of citrus and fruits with a tinge of herbs and green notes...something like lime flavored soaps...it does have tht out of shower feel/soapy feel to it. by midnotes the woody notes unveal itself with a touch of cardboard smell and lavender on a base of vetiver and amber...none of the notes are too prominent...every accord is blended to perfection.

Agua Fresca is great. It's delicate, fresh, green and woody on the drydown, but all the while subtle, like a butterfly settling on a cactus flower somewhere in Andalucia during Spring. Resembles Paco Rabanne XS but is actually much nicer; can be bought blind and it won't offend.

Your zephyr carries memories
Of sparkling meadows caressed,
Clear streams traversed.
Sweet Lavender muse,
Now whispering joy unto my Northern heart.

This scent is everything a great summer fresh scent for men must be like: masculine yet misty fresh, soft dry woods and some wild little flowers, like a real spanish countryside, sun and rustic “old world” feel that has an amazing, darker (but not too much) side that dries down in an elegant, old-bookstore-style way that even has an intelligent effect that may be lost on other scents that are on the same category. Pine needles, sand, woods, lights and shadows and early moring and late afternoon sun, come together here. Surprinsingly longlasting and decent - not too great- sillage, this is a winner and I will buy it again. I got the 4oz. box that has a great, simple and heavy sprayer glass bottle that has a very nice wooden top, very rustic and very nice.
