The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2011 and crafted by perfumer Olivier Cresp, L'Eau par Kenzo Wild is a vibrant composition that captures the essence of an invigorating escape into nature. The fragrance opens with mint and reed, creating a fresh and green top note that feels like stepping into a lush meadow on a sunny day. This gives way to a heart of mandarin orange, peach, and water lily, blending fruity and floral notes in perfect harmony. The base notes of jasmine, rose, and musk add warmth and depth, grounding the composition with a subtle sensuality.

How to wear it

Apply two sprays for a balanced experience — the fresh top notes will fade within an hour, but the warm base notes will linger throughout the day. This fragrance is best suited for daytime wear when its vibrant freshness can shine.
