Slightly off-topic as it's about a shower gel-- but has anyone tried the new Softsoap brand shower gel called Lemonade Berry Splash? I got it this week and all 3 of us love it. Just the thing for this early warm weather!
I don't smell berries so much as mixed citrus-- lemons and grapefruit in particular. It's very similar to the discontinued "Citrus" by Crabtree & Evelyn.
Now if only they would make a spray of this....
Instead of all that lemony stuff, try this master piece.
Laura Mercier Eau Gourmande Tarte Au Citron
Annick Goutal Eau d'Hadrien
L`Occitane en Provence Citrus Verbena Summer
O Boticario Acqua Fresca This one from O'Boticario is so underated A must try I believe.
+1 for
Annick Goutal Eau d'Hadrien
and one another, my personal favorite:
Nobile 1942 Vespriesperidati Gold for Women
Fragonard Citron !!!!!!!
Can I just mention one that ISN'T good? I love lemon but avoid this one like the plague!!!! It smells like lemon floor cleaner mixed with a whole cup of pure lemon juice! Made my nose "cringe" the way your mouth puckers when you taste a lemon. Yuck! You are better off with their Brown Sugar scent, because it is a more subtle lemon with a little sugar. It's unisex, really.
I'm curious about Demeter Meyer Lemon-- has anyone tried it?
Today I'm wearing The Thymes Limón edt but I can't recommend it as it is discontinued/HTF. (Notes: lemon, lime, pink pomelo, kumquat, mandarin leaf, black currant, freesia, jasmine.)
Best lemony scents for me are:
L'Occitane Citrus Verbena
4711 Lemon & Ginger
Acqua di Parma Magnolia Nobile
Chanel Cristalle
Lancome O de Lancome
Guerlain Eau de Cedrat
If you're looking for a perfume which is basically and all lemon I suggest trying Couvent des Minimes Cologne. It contains other notes, but I smell strong lemon.

I've never tried that one-- didn't even know it existed! sounds nice.
Le Couvent des Minîmes Verbena & Lemon is also nice-- discontinued, but see eBay. Really refreshing in warm weather.
