Laguna (for women)

Designer: Salvador Dali Olfactive Group: Floral Fruity

A warm floral fragrance of the sea shore. You can clearly feel the warmth of the southern parts and intensive aroma of exotic flowers. The top notes are fresh and fruity: mandarin, grapefruit, peach, and apricot. The heart is created of jasmine, rosewood, iris and lily of the valley. The base is composed of tonka, cedar wood, patchouli and vanilla. It was created in 1991 by Marc Buxton.

This is not your ordinary "floral-fruity" cocktail: thanks to cedar
and rosewood it has a noticeable base, jasmine and lily of the valley
keep it unmistakable floral. Yet there is some flatness to the
fragrance: its development consists of only two parts - top (mandarin,
cassis) notes to middle notes (florals-vanilla-rosewood). There is no
mystery to the scent; it has some oldness, some stale air, if you
please.
All in all, pleasant fragrance, but a bit boring.

This is a very interesting perfume for me. I usually wear only floral fragrances, I don't like very much spicy ones, but when I tried this, it had a perfect balance for me between this two characteristics. The sandalwood is noticeable through all the time you wear it, and it fits perfectly well with its floral notes. I got compliments and flirtations with this one too.
Also, I love Dali and the bottle is a beautiful design and tribute to his art, the perfumer also captured the surrealism in the fragrance.

I Love It .... From Thailand

First when I tried it, it had a very strange smell, like a good-quality air-freshener of 'ocean' scent... and still has the same expression if I smell it close to my wrist, and I could not stand it for a long time. Strangely, in opposite it has a very pleasant scent if I smell it not on my wrist but in the air. Like an ocean breeze. But unfortunately I can't wear it. I can't stand it on my skin, it's not a perfume made to wear.
The only thing I want is the bottle... very attractive shape and color.

Laguna is sparkling and full of energy freshness! The scent is not steady, it's vibrant and has curious character.
Brings me a lot of joy, when i sniff it!

First off I'm going to say I hate aquatic fragrances so it's extremely difficult to find summer/beachy scents to enjoy. Because of this, Laguna was a great find!

A salty breeze, coconuts, exotic fruits, and the warm glow of sun warming lotioned skin - that's how Laguna makes me feel. A wonderful casual scent and not for evening wear. Lasts all day too - another hard thing to find with summer scents!

Laguna is a strange scent, i bought a mini bottle of this a second time, and sometimes i like to wear it. First i smell much of the pineapple, its fresh and a lil bit fruity. The hard thing is that i cant really describe the scent, its like the most of Dali fragrances unique. This scent also last really long, good for summer or in vacation.

This is a nice scent though very basic.It almost smells a bit like a sweeter version of bounce dryer sheets.I don't get much aquatic"ness" from this either & that is what I was expecting.I guess for the price its ok

I bought this perfume a few days ago, because of the ingredients - I love the fruits, which are listed in the top notes and I ordered it without smelling it... Honestly, I am disappointed by this fragrance - maybe I expeceted something similar to one of the fruity floral Escada-s... I expecetd it to be more delicious and warm, with more coconut maybe. I find something odd in it - it smells like something cheap, salty and synthetic. However, the endurance is pretty good and if somebody likes the fragarance, it would be a benefit. The bottle is not what I expected as well - although it is non-standard and designery, it looks cheap and not as beautiful as on the pictures. I advise you not to buy it blindly, like I did!

just the fresh notes of the ocean.suitable for the day use in humide parts,specially for taking a walk beside the shores with a casual date.obviously it's not a classic perfume.although it seems good on middle aged females too.the fruity notes are not very clear and not sweet at all.before taking a trip to the shores be sure of taking laguna and escada sunset heat in your bagage.

This is the first perfume that i bought by myself when i was very young girl :) -15 years old- :D
I was searching for any different and distinctive
Today, Im continued to buying Laguna to my collection, because it's a very interesting mixture of scents make this fragrance distinctive, seductive, feminine, relaxing, attractive...
After a while this being more and more interesting fragrance... enchanting, comfortable and uncommon

very different to all of the perfumes you've already tried!you can't just smell it and say the combinations.that's why it's unique.

I was so in love with Laguna for a while...First, I fell in love with the bottle - the classic nose shape and perfect pair of lips...Somehow it reminded me of Sphynx and Egypt - so mysterious!And the fragrance itself is a complicated one - it is changing with your mood...The memories of sun burned rocks on a beach surrounded with tall pine trees, eating ripe, almost melting pineapples and plums with juice running through your fingers; and then it could take a sudden turn to a cold glass of martini bianco, the warm southern night and a twig of jasmine in someone`s hair...This martini note always fascinated me and made me a Laguna worshipper for quite a while.

There is something about it which really does make me think of water - an ozone/iodine note in there somewhere. One of those you are going to either love or hate, as there is quite a strong, heavy, persistent middle and drydown which goes on for a long, long time, and which can cloy after a while. But not over sweet, despite being heavy, which is an interesting mixture

This perfume reminds me on cold winter days, probably because i used it in winer fot the first time. This year i ll be a bit nostalgic and winter will again be denoted with Laguna.

It starts off very watery and fresh, then turns into a weirdly sweet fragrance. The blend it distinctive and the bottle is a reall work of art, so I'd say it's fun to have that in your collection.

Refreshing, good for summer but not everyone's cup of tea. It's strange but to me, at some point, this smells a little bit like smoking people ahahaha
And I actually thinks it suits better mature women.

My summer favourite! - despite some sketchy fruity notes that could disappoint you... It's not the most sophisticated scent in the world, but it's still warm, friendly-natural & vanilla-dreamy on me... As if it has a sea /laguna heart ~~~ :o)

On my skin I smell most promiently watery verbena, musk, pineapple and lots of orris. It does remind me a bit of the ocean. Laguna was made in 1990 as a tribute to the late artist Salvadore Dali & they have other perfumes I haven't sampled yet. Laguna's bottle is very pretty. The bottle is turquoise blue & has the visage of Aphrodite the Greek Goddess on it. It might smell better on someone else, because the orris seems to overpower every other note upon drydown with my chemistry. A 2.5 stars of 5.

I'm a fan of Dali's art and bought a 50ml Eau de Toilette for my twin sister as a present.
I also bought a pen, so I can try and know what I'm giving her.

This perfume is a very-well composed, long-lasting scent that produces the same suprisingly strong notes hour after hour.
The main theme is floral-fruity which appears the other way round - fruity aquatic first then floral aquatic
(interesting combination!)
Its stability is in a way its strength as well as its weakness, depending on the preferance of the wearer.
I found it one-sided, in that it didn't alter or evolve much over time or when exposed to different temperatues.
Some of the sweetness subdued after an hour during leaving a more characteristic oriental-spicy bouquet with a hint of
soft musk and woody cedar, the sweet-aquatic theme still going strong.
It's an uplifting, modern fragrance (despite its launch in 1991!) fresh and aquatic in character. Recommended for the summer.
