Green Tea Lotus by Elizabeth Arden for women

I received a free sample of this from MyPerfumeSamples, and I was surprised at how much I liked it! It is not complex or dark and brooding, not an oriental or spicy, not as green as I tend to go for in my chypres, (although perhaps "chartreuse")...
What it IS is so very fresh and bright with its opening, such that it gives me a little kick when energy levels are low, like when getting ready early in the morning or trying to be motivated to clean house. Its bright and citrusy fragrance will at times remind me of dish soap, which would not normally be my thing. However, somehow, it works for me! I purchased a full bottle, because I find myself reaching for Green Tea with Lotus quite often. It's a daytime fragrance more for spring and summer, but I will be breaking the rules and using it as I please, lol. I wouldn't recommend this for a date, unless it's more of a friendly date, because I doubt anyone would describe this as particularly sexy. Yet, for me, it serves a necessary purpose quite well. Worth a try!

Like I said I love green tea, so I loved it. It just had that one thing missing, that the original green tea by Elizabeth Arden's had??? Still wonderful fragrance.

Clean. Smells like clean lotion. Soft, with pretty good staying power. Drys down to a soft white floral.
