The story behind the bottle.
Tropical Splash Hibiscus by Marc Jacobs is a Floral Fruity fragrance for women and men, launched in 2012 and crafted by perfumer Richard Herpin. The composition opens with the vibrant burst of mandarin orange and raspberry, leading into a heart of hibiscus and tiare flower that brings an effervescent sweetness to the blend. The base notes of musk and vetiver provide a grounding warmth without overpowering the freshness above.
One or two sprays are sufficient to capture the essence of this fragrance. The citrus opening fades within an hour but leaves behind a lingering warmth from the musk and vetiver base notes, making it perfect for daytime wear.
