    Upon application is a blast of very strong mint & juniper. When applied heavily its enough to feel like your being trapped underwater. Its title fits it as it has an aquatic feel. The dry down has...

    In the Imp : I can smell the juniper already. Wet : The juniper and the mint are jumping right out while the lotus is adding a very wet smell to this. The smell reminds me of one of those...

    This is strong with mint and menthol smelling in the vial, but drydown is much milder and floral with a light sweetness. This is a very crisp scent. The mint did not last on me as I wish it would...

    I'd buy this again in imp form. So undertow starts with a mentholy fresh topnote (a la Numb) and burns off to something sweet, and clean. Like Storm Moon clean but sweeter. Then it dries down to a...

    Much cleaner & lighter than I expected. Primarily minty with undertones of the other notes, but not much of them. Over time, the juniper comes out a bit more. Much lighter than other juniper...

    I bought this in the larger size because I found it particularly intriguing. The smell is some what creamy and minty, with very crisp aquatic notes and a hint of fruity sweetness. It's much fuller...

    Minty, with an odd fruity/floral component. A bit chalky, too. Assorted mint-and-fruit-flavored Tums? Still, a light scent, fades fast, not offensive; but not interesting enough for me to wear...

    Initially, I get a strong peppermint fragrance--not quite Altoids-strength, but close enough. Unfortunately, this also has that dreaded lotus note that has turned me off so many BPAL fragrances. ...

    It is very cool and heavy on pine. I thought it smelled like a floor cleaner.

    Beautiful. An aquatic blend that is neither too wet, nor too much a clone of "China Rain" like so many others seem to be. A clean perfume, very lightly minty, with the softness of lotus. The...
