Green Tea Lotus Elizabeth Arden for women

This perfume is lovely, good combination between the freshness of greentea and the sweetness of lotus. This makes you feel lovely. I have a tiny travel bottle used to keep Hermes Un Jardin Sur Le Toit and since it's empty now, I pour EA Greentea Lotus into it. Amazingly, both blend really well. The Le Toit kinda dominate it but I can still smell the Greentea Lotus. I love this blend! Well, just sharing, in case anyone interested to give it a try :D

This is a light, citrusy-fresh, everyday scent. That's its purpose and it delivers well. Anyone who expects anything grander than that should buy something priced over $50.

This was my first green scent. It was (and still is) a difficult transition for a gourmand/oriental gal like me, but since I blend perfume myself I respect every note in this one. Somethimes you just need that lighter, carefree fragrance, right?

Green Tea Lotus smells divine out of the bottle, but on my skin I just get confused. I haven't owned it for that long so I am still skeptic about it. I wear it on my "cant-be-bothered-with-perfume" days and I find it energizing and uplifiting, once I get passed the citrus that is.. I'm not a big fan of citruses so I am usually on the verge of geting a headache until the drydown (it's not the most obvious note, but to my untamed nose it is). Using this as a body spray and avoiding neck and pulse points works best in my case.

Note-wise I get mostly the loud citrus, lotus and lily. They are all swirled in ice cold green tea. Cherry blossom is faint and watery, more like something from The Body Shop that accidently got mixed in with Elizabeth Arden's Green Tea. However, there is that ozonic feature that is just so refreshing and thus encourages me to focus on the "clean" elements in the perfume rather than the frustrating florals and painful citrus.

Lasting power is so "90s" in spite of it being launched in the 2000s, it has that linear sillage and doesn't really evolve until much later (an hour). The belated drydown is pure floral to me, but until that - on my skin - it cries out "Hi there, I'm lemon and I'll be here for a while!". Top notes can really drive me crazy. The first day I tried it on I needed a painkiller to get over it.

My curiosity urged me to give it another chance though. I think lemon and lotus are constantly in combat for the first half hour or so and that's what frustrates me. When I finally wish most of the lemon away, I get only the faintness of lotus and some questionable florals.. Oh well, like I said, these kind of scents have no spectacular purpose. They are just fresh and "nice".

Do I like it? Not sure (yet).
Do I recommend it? Yes, if that's your thing.
Will I give it another chance? Yes, I will see how it works for me this summer.

Don't dwell too much over buying it. Make the purchase if you are into greens or just need something fresh - period. Not recommended for girls strictly into sticky gourmands or sweet fruity-florals. This is a green scent, you'll most likely detest it.

I had the original Green Tea version of this and liked it but wasn't amazed, I often thought it smelled like a grandma somehow. I hate that it did because I so so so wanted to love it because I'm a green tea fanatic~ I'm curious to try this version with lotus

I'm not able to make up my mind about this one. There are times I like it and times I don't. It opens with a burst of citrus sharpness. Give it some time and the tea and flower notes come through. On me, these are the notes I detect, and it stays this way.

And I'm not able to make up my mind about it because sometimes it feels a bit sharp and chemical-ly.

However - there is a however, happily- applied with a light hand, it's lovely, simple, clean and light...

Its long lasting, which is super important to me, because I'm not someone who necessarily wants to bother with having to re apply through the day.

So definitely good, when applied with a little less enthusiasm than mine on some occasions ;-)

There is a lady in a simple white dress. She is walking into water. There are many lotus flowers in the water and the floral smells are prominent. Slowly, her body is submerged in the pale green water but it does not drench her - it simply made her clean, refreshed and delicate.

That's the image I get when applying this perfume.

Just bought this today at a local discount store for SGD$19.90 after reading reviews here. :D
It smells very floral but is inoffensive, despite the synthetic ingredients. I mean, I tend to find most synthetic smelling perfumes bad, but this doesn't smell bad or make my head hurt (at least, not at the moment).
It's kinda aquatic in smell and floral, with hints of green tea. Green tea is a side kick in this perfume, and I wished it were stronger since I prefer green scents to floral ones.

Longevity on skin is around 3-5 hours, sillage is soft/moderate. I think it smells decent but overall not something I'd reach for as I'm not a floral type of person, unless it's rose or peony.

I really love this! I've like the original, but this is so much better. I was looking for a daily scent to use without feeling guilty about its cost, and I have recently get a lotus flower tattoo, so I decided that I have to have this. In Argentina don't sell it, so I order it blind and wait 2 looong weeks. I can't be more happy. Is spring here and I will use all summer too, and I want it every summer of my life.

Woweee!!! I found this jewel at tj maxx for $ 13! This has taken my breath away with its beauty. The original green tea wasn't my favorite, there's always a bit of harshness with a realistic green tea scent. But the lotus version is fluid, floral, aquatic almost, and fantastic! It has a bit of elegance that makes me feel beautiful in a simplistic way. I do get some fruit in the very beginning but I would say this is mostly floral. I wish this lasted a bit longer though. You do u have to carry the bottle with u to reapply. Now I need to find a bottle of the revitalize version, hoping that its just as amazing.

I think this is my favorite of the green teas. Beautiful, light & refreshing. After about 20 minutes I smell something sweet. Must be the Yuzu & the plum but I would've thought it'd die down by now. Love this scent. A must have for long hot summer days!!! EA scents are totally underrated!!!

Edit...This lasted 7+ hours on my skin. Although it was a skin scent at that point but I still could get a beautiful whiff of green tea when I pressed my nose to my arm. Not bad for $12.99!!!

My fragrance wardrobe is mostly "sweeties" and heady floral fragrances, so I've been looking for something clean and a bit sophisticated without fruit and spice. Several times I thought about Bvlgari Crystal, but it's a bit pricey and sometimes it's a hit on me, sometimes a miss. I found this and also the summer scent at Marshall's today for 13 bucks per big ol' bottle. Not a huge investment, so I bought them both (blind buy, because, of course, they are all trapped in locked plastic boxes now-a-days).
I do believe I have found a winner in this fragrance! It's DEFINITELY green tea from the opening, very much like the original. Once it dries down, the lotus with a touch of woodiness (birch? okay!) comes in and balances out the tea.
LOVELY LOVELY LOVELY and exactly what I wanted... clean, peaceful and sophisticated without being "over-the-top". I find it is stronger & longer lasting than the GT Summer version.
I'll use this year-round when I need to smell like a grown-up. :)
Happy Sniffing, everyone!!!

This one doesn't thrill me, it's okay but quite weak and the fragrance doesn't seem to last for long. I thought I liked it at first, but now it reminds me a bit of air-freshener. I bought it for something refreshing and light for summer, as I usually wear heavier or stronger smelling perfumes. It just doesn't do much for me, but might be a good one if you like very subtle fragrances.

" I can see clearly now the rain is gone. I can see all the obstacles in my way. Gone are the dark clouds that had me blind. It's gone be a bright, bright... bright sunshine day."

Think about a very bright and happy day. Than think about a scent of this picture. That's Green Tea Lotus.
Everything lights up at first notes.
In one word: love!

I have the original Green Tea and I love it so when I found out about Green Tea Lotus, I just couldn't wait to try it. I just got this perfume today and I'm so glad I did. It was love at first smell! It's refreshing but it doesn't smell like any ordinary citrusy fragrance that I've smelt before. You can smell the citrus notes but at the same time the floral notes are also obvious. Perfect mix! The smell is just beautiful! It has much stronger notes than the original Green Tea, I'd say more noticeable. I'm going to wear this scent all-year round.

Absolutely amazing!I have the original green tea scent which I love but this is even better I think. It's still very green and fresh but less sharp with nice floral undertone and evokes the scent of spring walks through blossoming summer orchards. Very good feel scent.

i've just bought this yesterday by blind and based on the reviews. today is the the first time i wear this and wow it's like a fence of flowers surround me! fresh smelling! i really love all green tea variants of elizabeth arden :)

One of the better Green Tea flankers in that you can smell it when it goes on and it lasts quite well.
Quite a rich fragrance combining citrus with a deeper floral aroma which is lovely and feminine.
Nice for every day wear, not overpowering but warm and sophisticated. Really like this one.

I bought this based on great reviews here and found it quite a nice floral fragrance. @guess_geogie is right, its a combination of the original Green Tea with a touch of True Love, with a little "kick"..LOL! it lingers nicely on me and I absolutely love this one!

fresh tea citrussy scent; very light; short lasting thou:( kind of similar to JLo's Still which I prefer better

I love this fragrance - warm heady floral background with a fresh citrus and green tea breeze. I had never seen this perfume before but it felt so hauntingly familiar - then i realized! - this perfume is Elizabeth Arden True Love plus Green Tea with an extra citrus note added! I actually used to wear True Love and Green Tea together! The floral notes in True Love are beautiful but it is quite insipid on its own - green tea gives it freshness and definition.

I absolutely love this one! It's my everyday perfume which instantly makes me feel clean, fresh and relaxed. I always get compliments when wearing this one, no one would guess that its actually a cheapy. I can't find it anywhere here anymore (Aus) but I'll defiantly be buying it online because I CANNOT live without this one.

Green Tea Lotus is a delight for the senses! It's so beautiful. I loved the original Green Tea and several others of the flankers, but this one is a little less crisp and more floral than the others. At once I was captivated by the plum and cherry blossom top notes. The soft heart notes of lotus and lily are punctuated by the wonderful crispness of the green tea. The green tea remains within the fragrance throughout the drydown where the musk and soft woods set a sensual undertone. The strength of the fragrance is only around 4 hours, so I do recommend layering with the original green tea body lotion. Overall, it is a wonderful scent perfect for a warm sunny day.

I bought this fragrance for my girl and sometimes I tested it, I thinks it's really girly and for the green tea I think it's heavy, but my girl loves it.

This fragrance is very similar to Paco's UV summer pops but -luckily-very very lighter then its fruity scent!
Of course similar to the original-first green tea of EA but this one is more for "fruitlovers" i think and IMO the original one was more refreshing then this...o.k I'm using it but I won't buy this one again:(

I love its fresh smell and how it's just the right mix of fruity and floral. I'm glad I chose this over Green Tea Revitalize since I found the latter more overpowering. Though Green Tea Lotus has weak staying power, I'll definitely get myself another bottle once it runs out. :)

This limited edition fragrance is very similar to elizabeth arden green tea. But green tea lotus scent is slightly stronger yet it's not typically strong enough to overwhelm you. I felt in love with it=)

This one really helped me to forget this hot day...when I went to a perfume store today, I looked for something light and refreshing - Green Tea Lotus was perfect. It is similar to The Vert of L'Occitane, but even more refined and has a slight floral side.
