   |  A beautiful lemon scent that comes off medium strength and then steps down to a creamy lemon-aquatic. There is one use for this and its exactly what I use it for: scorching hot days where I know I will get sweaty. There is no better fragrance I've tested yet that is more suitable for extreme heat than this.28 June 2009 |
 | This was one of the first fragrances I purchased after joining BN. It practically became my signature I enjoyed it so much. It is definitely an "acquatic" but much more interesting and aromatic than most. Love the opening freshness and the smooth transition to the smooth musky drydown. Longevity is not a problem with my skin and the humidity here in N.O. Defintiely a summer favorite. 10 March 2009 |
  | Simple, refreshing citrus that dries down to an aquatic musk. Not a groundbreaker, but I like it much better than others of its kind. Topnotes are addictive. Though it's made for men, easily unisex. I like to wear it on hot days or when I'm exercising. 22 February 2009 |
  | When first trying this, my expectations were moderate. However, I walked out of the perfume shop with my wrist glued to the nose. For economic reasons, I tried to convince myself that I didn't need another aquatic/fresh scent, but with little success; the memory of the beautiful and "happy-energetic" top notes stuck in my brain. It is very easy to wear in most situations; non-offensive and office friendly (except that repeated invocation of the wrist-to-nose reflex may be disturbing and confusing your office-mates), and my wife loves it. This is now my favourite scent for casual summer days. 13 May 2008 |
  | Love it! Very very very FRESH, and CLEAN! Great in the summer, in the morning right after a shower. Maintains a clean feeling on my skin. Very lemony, and some might say it smells a bit like bathroom cleaner. But in a good way. Smells wonderful! 15 December 2007 |

| I really like the fresh, citrusy, aquatic smell of this one. It's lemony and sweet, but not overpowering. Admittedly, its longevity leaves something to be desired, but overall, it's a very nice scent. The bottle is also one of my favorites :) 07 January 2007 |

| I picked up this scent among the collection of the fresh smells. Just it's a share masterpiece by Kenzo and Cresp. Nice fresh and bright citrus with the hint of aquatic notes-this is different from other fresh scents that most of them have been overrated by people. It's refined, polished and so loud--I've really enjoyed it so far. Highly recommended. 26 October 2006 |
 | Pure sensuality and peace of mind.A light sweety scent with misterious yuzu lemon. It can be worn anywhere,everywhere as it has something subtle and elegant with it, compared to other citrus scents.Take it as an alternative to Acqua Di GIO. 17 September 2006 |
  | I can´t understand how some reviewers found this fragance boring!, with all my respects. I´m a A fan of aquatic perfumes. I been trying several times different ones, but nothing like that modern, transparent smell of ozone, water, yuzu, mint and the androginous note of water lilly :) Now, this one have everything that suit day/night, all seasons, fresh, airy, invigorating and a Yummy factor. There´s nothing like that around on similar fragances on the same family Highly recommended, (and last long for hourrssssssss). 30 August 2006 |
 | One of my favorites! It's at the top of my summer list. Definitely a strong lemon accord, but a sophisticated one - I get not only lemon, but also the lemon peel, and combined with the other fresh notes, it's intoxicating. Very fresh and cooling. 19 August 2006 |
 | Cold Lemon dominates the top notes... and yes, Yuzu is a type of Lemon... green floral middle notes and a very soft Vanilla drydown. Unlike others, I never seem to have longevity issues with LpK, as it lasts about 4-5 hours on my skin. Classy. 26 May 2006 |
 | This is the only one of the fresh scents that I truly like. It is a clean breath of fresh air. I am sure someone else has said the same about this. But it is true. benb 28 April 2006 |
  | Fresh and Cool. It's a real invigorating scent. Great for summer time. 24 April 2006 |

| lovely freshness that grows with each wearing..it was a gift from a then girlfriend and took me by surprise..i only owned it once but i can recall the scent readily..the unique top notes (back then) really set this off and apart form the competition and it even had some staying power..lush..long green grass somewhere in the orient beckon. 21 March 2006 |

| This is the most fresh fragrance you will experience. fantastic for summer hot days, feels like continues cold shower. only outmatched by Paco Rabanne Pour Homme(the old version). 26 February 2006 |
|
| Smells like classier and more subtle version of well-known aquatic scents like Boss Elements Aqua(which is in my opinion very good too). Sparkling refreshing "green" notes, not only watery, but also slightly ozonic, lightful,gentle and pleasantly inconspicous on te wearer's skin. Perfect casual wear, day- and summertime scent. 28 January 2006 |
 | After falling for the women's version, I was pleasantly surprised that the men's was just as enjoyable and just as fresh and dewy. A staple for warmer weather that makes great use of Japanese yuzu inthe topnotes! 14 January 2006 |

| It took a while for this scent to grow on me. At first I was overwhelmed by the almost sickly-sweet citrus. However, after wearing it a few times I grew to really enjoy this unique fresh fragrance. I think part of the reason I was overwhelmed in the first place is that the initial spray *is* pretty powerful, but this potency quickly fades, leaving a light, pleasant aroma on you. I can't wait to try this one out in summer. 04 January 2006 |

| This is the best citrus I have ever smelled. It starts off a bit like L'eau D'Issey, but (thankfully, IMHO) it mellows out to something absolutely amazing. The perfect summer scent. 10 December 2005 |

| This is just barely different from everything else on the market, just barely. It’s a very soft and very subtle aquatic and citrus fragrance. It’s very fresh, and has some interesting notes to keep it from being boring. I will agree with Matt; this is a much better made fragrance than most other summer offerings. 22 September 2005 |
|
| This is my all time favourite fragrance. I just cannot get bored of this scent. L'eau Par just simply awakens my senses and rejuvinates me. I love the yuzu top note that really reminds me of a fresh lemonade and it's just so heavenly. I use everything from L'eau Par range and there is nothing more refreshing than using the L'eau Par shower gel every morning. I hope this wonderful fragrance will stand the test of time. 01 August 2005 |
 | I've done a 180 on this since my initial impression. It's Perfect. Yuzu done right. This is what Happy, Tommy and countless other recent launches aim for but fail miserably to deliever. Light, fresh and original just like Kenzo's signature ph. Good stuff. The old samourai-katana bottle is so superior to the new rectangular though... MMM 16 March 2005 |

| This fragrances really rullez! It makes me very happy every second,minute,hour I wear it.If you want a clean scent,watery yet fruity try this one...you woun't be dissapointed!Not to mention that girls are mad about this one... 22 April 2004 |
 | I love this scent during the summer. It is about as aquatic as they come and is neither overpowering nor too close to the skin. It's a very fresh and clean scent that elicits many compliments. Haven't smelled it on many others too which is a plus. 27 March 2003 |
