The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2007 by Marc Jacobs and crafted by perfumer Vera Vanore, Splash Cucumber is a refreshing Woody Aromatic fragrance that captures the essence of crispness and freshness. The composition opens with cucumber and lotus leaf, creating an ozonic and aquatic sensation that feels like a burst of cool water on your skin. As it evolves, notes of lime blossom and freesia introduce a delicate floral touch, while musk and white woods provide a subtle warmth in the base.
Apply one to two sprays on your pulse points. The ozonic top notes are particularly refreshing but fade within the first hour, so reapply if you want to maintain that initial burst of freshness throughout the day.
