Estée Lauder says ‘Be like water’
The product: Estée Lauder Pleasures Aqua
What it is: Estée Lauder has captured the essence of water in the new limited-edition fragrance, Pleasures Aqua, a watery floral scent inspired by the pleasure of escaping to a place where the sky meets the sea and the scent of fresh flowers intermingles with crisp ocean air. The fragrance opens with a dewy topnote of honeysuckle, freesia, solar florals and leafy greens. At its heart, lilac, jasmine and peony illuminate a subtle, feminine side. It dries down to a musk and sensuous ambrox.
Where to get it: Estée Lauder Pleasures Aqua is available at Rustan’s Makati, Shangri-La, Alabang, Gateway and Cebu, Essenses Rockwell, SM Mall of Asia, and SM Aura.
