This one strongly reminds me of Light Blue by Dolce & Gabbana. It has a marine freshness, combined with fresh citruses (I’m endlessly puzzled they aren’t in the notes??) and perhaps waterlily? The drydown is warmer and slightly sweet, but not in an unpleasant way. It’s super cheap, and can be found in some drugstores too. I enjoyed the body spray better because it’s lighter, but if you’re seeking for a 6+ hour sillage, go ahead with the edt.

This is a blind buy based on reading previous reviews and the grouping – I am a big floral-aquatic fan, and I am always on the hunt for the next perfect summer (outdoor/ holiday) fragrance.
Found one EDT available with a jazzed-up packaging: glittery box and a turquoise rubber-like material with more glitter covering an otherwise simple bottle.
A familiar yet generic scent, evoking the sea with an underlying sweetness that smells like cognac (or is my bottle spoiled?) . The floral notes never blossom and overall smell very synthetic! Kind of like the aquatic scent one finds in cleaning products.
I had expected higher standards from Byblos. After two disappointing blind buys from their label, I shall definitely have to try out their perfumes before taking the plunge in the future.

@8691ikim: are you actually sure you’re not confusing the Perfumed Water with the Eau de Parfume?

As for me, I’m a guy and I’ve been using this fragrance for some time. Many e-shops claimed it to be for female, while others intended it to be unisex. Since I’m really fed up with typical male fragrances, especially now that climate’s getting warmer, I thought it was worth a try.
Well, I really like it. It’s fresh, light, not heavy – definitely good for late spring. Not girlish at all, I don’t feel awkward while wearing it. It does have some “fizzy” notes, it really reminds me of sparkling water – I’ve to say that I tend to connect the fizzy ideal to citruses in general, but it appears there are aren’t in this fragrance. That’s curious.
The only drawback is its durability: I tend to spray a LOT OF EdT before going out, but the longevity depends on the fragrance itself, not on the amount of EdT used. And well, it gradually loses its fresh, sparkling touch (and its average sillage) after 3-4 hours.
However, here in Italy it’s not really expensive, so I guess it’s not that bad.
Thumbs up for this EdT!

This is one of my favourite fragrances ever! It stays fresh, clean and exotic on my skin and i always get compliments when i wear it. It became one of the permanent fragrances i use and i’d say that i wear it in every season – in summertime it strenthens the sea presence and in winter it reminds of the sweet memories of the past hot days!
