Marc Jacobs has launched two more fragrances in his Splash collection:
Orange Splash is a fruity floral with top notes of bergamot, mandarin, neroli and tamarind; mid notes of water mint, freesia and white rose; and a dry down of moss, tonka bean amber, musk and blonde woods.
Cucumber Splash [shown] is a refreshing floral with top notes of watery cucumber accord, lotus leaf and cactus flower; mid notes of linden blossom, blue tiger lilies and Dutch freesia; and a dry down of frosted musk and blonde woods.
Marc Jacobs Orange Splash & Cucumber Splash are available in 300 ml bottles of Eau de Toilette for $65 each, at nordstrom.

So looking forward to sniffing the Cucumber – I REALLY LIKED the Ivy Splash (I think I love the 'candy cane' note most of all). I'm going to Nordstroms for lunch tomorrow!
Hey, let me know how they are! I am mostly interested in the Orange myself.
Ooo, these sound interesting. However, I had a bad experience with tamarind many years ago and I'm not sure how I'll find it. Kumquat is another note that sets my stomach-a-reelin'.
Trying to think of another scent with tamarind and coming up blank, although I'm sure there is one…
Just smelled these today!! They had “Rain, Orange, and Cucumber”. The guy said “Amber” is coming soon.
Cucumber smells SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO good!
They did Amber last year, so guessing that means they're re-releasing it, as they did with Rain (?)
Robin, is this a Unisex Fragrance??? The woman at Macy's said she heard they were
I don't know how they are marketing them, but I'd certainly call them unisex.
I absolutely love Orange, but of all the Splash fragrances I've tried, it is probably the only one I wouldn't recommend for men. It's a bit too sweet for men, in my humble opinion.
I did not find it too feminine, but of course everyone is different!
I don't know that I found it feminine, exactly, just not particularly manly.
