What wearers say

“the smell of sunlight reflecting off of a perfectly-chlorinated swimming pool on a summer day. reflective, sparkly and cleansing. smells wealthy, like the freshly-mopped home of an A-list celebrity. I love this straight out of the bottle or on a strip, but unfortunately on my skin, I find the longevity is non-existent. kind of unacceptable for the price point, though I don't regret buying my FB. I wear it daily in the spring and summer, but when night falls I have to put on something bolder.”

“This fragrance is such an effervescent delight. It opens as a bright citrus, like drinking a fizzy lemon soda water. As it dries down, it mellows into an herbal facet that reminds me of sipping green tea with a dash of citrus zest and vegetal cilantro. Whilst it may be akin to some fragrances, it sets a bar as a long-lasting and refined scent in the citrus category. Perfect for the summer.The opening is very similar to Elizabeth Arden Green Tea, but the dry down is different. EA Green Tea dries down into some sort of a very soft skin scent that is quite ambery. MFK Aqua Media is quite linear.”

“Aqua Media Cologne Forte smells like the greenest lemon, one that just started appearing on the tree and it’s far from ripe. Smells like lime’s zest.It’s a pleasant perfume, but the smell is to simple to justify the price.Personally, I’m not into super acidic squeezed lemon juice scents.It doesn't smell like matcha at all.”
