Oscar Bamboo (for women)

The lime starts out bitter and fresh, just like the little limes I buy here at the farmerś market-this is impressive-a perfume representing a fruit so clearly-with no sugar added! The lime fades momentarily and does not stay with the composition. The bamboo is so light, itś only a whisper. The mimose is what really takes charge in this perfume. Itś so genuine, simple, full, and robust, just wonderful; adding strength and vitality to this perfume, also heightening the feeling of nature this perfume purveys. The water lily is a great note; it blends with and accentuates the mimose. The water lily really helps create a thin, colorless, watery, sensation with the bamboo, then combining the mimose- it is as if you have a pond with flowers in bloom all around. The musk is soft and timid; just there to have a nice base for all the notes. I have tested other Acquatics and Floral Acquatics and none could match the sense of water...as this one does!

This is my favorite of the limited edition collection so far. This scent transports me to a place far away, somewhere in the south pacific perhaps. Somewhere close to water, a lake or small pond, where the smell of the bamboo leaves is mixed with watery flowers, whose aroma is intensified with the humidity. This is a scent for summer evenings sittting on the patio, watching the sun go down.

I just tried it and it has a really refreshing aroma. Very tropical, I can smell the bursting lime and bamboo leaves so the name suits the perfume just fine. What you see is what you get with this scent.

This is my favourite of all the limited editions (Pink Lily, Red Orchid etc.) from Oscar de la Renta. An aromatic fresh green with a lively kick from the lime and cardamon. See my review on makeupalley. Willing to swap samples if interested :)

XSX

Me to! But they are not really available in our country....Too bad.

I really want to try this one but I haven't seen it here. The only one I've seen being sold here from this series is Fresh Vanilla which by the way smells fantastic.
