safe & trusted since 1999

Love this fragrance but does not last on me at all. I need something longer lasting. Maybe Kenzo Parfum D'Ete?

L'idsey by Issey Miyake? I like L'idsey and wanted to love it but there was something in that scent that didn't make me fall completely for it. Like this unique composition was a little "too" unique. But Kenzo's version is the same type of an aquatic scent but goes on smoother. It smells like the wind, ocean, palm leaves, sweet bananas and delicate exotic flowers. It reminds me of a tropical fruit - fresh, in it's full sweet but tart taste. Really awesome!

I was about 10 maybe 11 years old, it was maybe 97' maybe 98'. I had a friend in middle school - her mom who was a perfume freak had this fragrance. Back then I had no idea who was it by. All I remember was that I used to sleep over my friend's house a lot and we used to "search" through her mom's perfume collection. I remember spraying this and thinking: "one day when i grow up I want to have this perfume too". Later I forgot about it (of course) and a few years later I saved money and bought my first, real, my beloved perfume alchimie. Then I started buying more fragrances and liking the whole perfume world even more. I wanted to become a perfumer one day too. I just thought about this perfume not too long ago. I was like, I remember the bottle but can't think of the name. I knew it smelled fresh, elegant, clean but not like a laundry detergent. It was rather yummi, fruity, melony type of a scent. It had to have some musk in it too. I also knew the kenzo brand and have used their flower perfume. Just never thought Kenzo was also the one that launched this! I was reading comments on this website when I looked and here it was: Le par. Love it and love it again. Good memories.

PLEASE any of the previous buyers of this GREAT perfume could sent me a pic of the box and bottle that it came in? anybody bought the OLD 1.7 version? can u send me the pic of the box the bottle was in ? thanks a million litzcan@gmail.com

A rough key of pronunciation would be /LOW PAHR KEN'ZOH/ Hope that helps. Very nice oceanic melon-y fragrance but on me it has no staying power whatsoever. A shame, really...

This is a wonderful Aqua for women. Very fresh! The flacon has been redesigned which isn't illustrated in this site. looks like a old window pane. Beautiful. I highly recommend it.

love this scent! it last longer on me. very fresh, lovely and charming scent. i always get compliments from people everytime i wear this one. love it sooo much. but, can anybody here tell me how to pronounce this? when someone asks me what i am wearing, my answer is just, Kenzo.

For those who, like me, love L'Eau par Kenzo, I bought a new wonderful fragrance that is very similar, but, instead of watermelon, is more similar to fresh cut grass: Printemps, by Van Cleef & Arpels. I'm sure that big fans of LPK will apreciate this too!!!

This is a good scent if you're in the mood for something totally fresh and unoffensive. Not terribly sexy, but a pleasant, clean smell. Would be great for the office or casual summer days. Disappeared rather quickly, though, so be prepared to spritz frequently.

I bought this fragrance because someone mentioned that it could be a unisex fragrance. She was right and I had so many compliments from both men and women. They were completely oblivious that the fragrance I was wearing was L'eau Par Kenzo Femme. I am not gay. Haha. I have the Homme version too which I think, at least in my opinion, is one of best citrus based fragrance for men. If the femme version were a unisex fragrance, it would certainly be in my top ten. This fragrance is just plain fantastic.

I still love this scent so much that I finished up my first bottle and just bought more. This time I got the big bottle. It is so light that you can actually spray a lot on without it being obnoxious. I didn't used to think that it stayed on very well, but now that I haven't been smoking for almost a year now, I can smell it longer. Also, since I quit smoking, fragrances which I used to think were weak, are actually pretty strong! I used to think I had a pretty acute sense of smell, which it was decent, but now it is even more acute. Leau Par is one of my all time favorites.

Paris in the Springtime. I first purchased L'Eau Par Kenzo at the EuroStar train station in Paris and I've been hooked ever since. I'm happy to know I can get it here--does not affect my allergies.

If you are looking for a very fresh watery clean scent this is the one. I got a mini and instantly loved it. It smells like water and fresh air. Unfortunately, as most light fragrances it doesn't last so I have to keep reapplying it. A shame. This is definately a summer perfume, I live in cold climate so i know in the winter it will die out real fast.

I loove this scent. It's so light and pure. If you like Acqua Di Gio style clean marine scents you will love this one too. In fact, the male and the female versions can be considered unisex! Neither of them are too feminine or too masculine. If you enjoy aquatic fragrances try L'eau Par :)

L'EAU D'ISSEY AND L'EAU PAR KENZO ARE THE BEST CHOICES FOR SPRING/SUMMER. I'M ALWAYS LOOKING FOR A NEW SCENT, BUT NO ONE IS GOOD AS THEY ARE!!!

Just a fantastic fragrance for summer -- and anytime you're craving that feeling of a new-born, dewy morning. Fresh, uplifting, very original, very subtle. I've got loads of fragrances, and I seem to give this one extra reverence, just using it sparingly to make it last, which is actually quite silly!! Not the most long-lasting fragrance because it doesn't have those dark, woody base notes, but that's okay: the topnotes are so gloriously intoxicating, I want to keep spraying anyway (which contradicts my comment about using it sparingly, but you guys know what I mean!! Contradictions, thy name is woman. . .)

I'm not a perfume gal. Most just give me a headache but this one I absolutely LOVE. It's very clean and neat. I get lots of comliments on it. Only problem is that it fades rather quickly. Other than that, it is the perfect perfume.

Since my last post, I have purchased the body gel. It makes the fragrance hold onto your skin a little longer. It still fades after a few hours (especially if you have drier skin), but at least not right away. As for the new bottle... I love it!! The "block of ice" is SO much better than that old bottle which reminds me of a cheap drug store perfume bottle. Now the bottle is classy and modern like the perfume inside. L'eau Par is really one of the best.

smells like cucumber and watermellon and fresh spings and sooo happy go lucky perfume great for spring :)

I'm wearing this perfume 10 years since it came out.I really,really love it.I likes mens version too.But........y did they have to chance the bottle? I like this bottle too...but......

This is an update on my previous post, since i felt I have not given a complete review. During my first few days with this fragrance,, I had decided that it was a bit too bland, as if the fragrance was missing something. After testing the men's one, I feel that it is a bit too much, and my decision is, too little is better than too much. Anyhow, after a few weeks with this fragrance, it has grown on me, and one can say it sort of 'completes itself', and it is longer-lasting than I had originally thought. Interesting trivia: The wavy 'water' part of the new rectangular men's and women's bottle connect to each other to form a complete cuboid.

I'm really undecided between the men's and women's version of this product. I am an male asian teenager who is quite androgynous-looking (get called miss by accident quite often) and have heard of many guys using the women's version and vice-versa. I currently have the women's version, and have tested the men's one before. The fragrance itself is great. I would have rated excellent, if not for staying power. Will be trying the men's one next.

Love this perfume! I just bought a bottle, and I wish I had gotten the larger one instead. I know this is one of my favorite new fragrances, BUT...does anyone else have the problem of it fading away so quickly? It is such a light scent to begin with, and it is gone so fast even if I spray a lot on all over like a body spray. I guess I will have to get the lotion too. Too bad... it smells so good I wish it had more staying power.

I am really picky about women's fragrances. I am a perfume lover, but even then I only have about 12 cause it is hard to find a scent I like enough to buy. I just discovered this one (even though it's been out a long time). It reminds me of water if fresh clear water had a smell, also kind of green which I love. I am not a fan of perfumes which are too flowery, and although it has floral notes, it is still one of the best out there in my opinion. It works well on me.

This is such a great scent for everyday. I just love it and I use the bath products too. It is just so beautiful and fresh!

I first heard of this fragrance in 1996, while I was in Europe and I fell in love with it. It's very pretty and lightly floral. I now use it in my bath water and it has the whole upstairs smelling like a goddess. Nice and sweet.

Fresh, vital, feminine, clean... unique! Men love it (al least I've gotten many compliments on it!) A must have.

I love this sent on a woman. This is a good gift for Valentines day. Guys, you will not regret giving this to your girl. Once she wears it, it's like frosting on a cake. Dig in! (Wink-Wink)

I'm a guy and I just love this fragrance. But I get this feeling it could also be worn by men, as it's something of the Acqua Di Gio style. What do you women think?

although success of a perfume depends on your body chemistry i have never managed to like it even though i am sucker for extremly fresh fragrances ( bvlgari extreme, annick goutal eau d'hadrien amongs the current favourites) this one is too green for me. acres of freshly cut grass with quite a stong flowery note cutting through - excellent on some (especially if they are dark haired) but on a bleached blond with a serious sun bed addiction - not a good choice for me...check out a new bottle though, quite nice

This is absolutely the best perfume created. I will never tire of it! I have been wearing it for 4 years, along with other scents, but none compare to this one. I treasure every bottle!

L'eau par Kenzo is one of my favorite ones. I LOVE perfumes I have a collection of 35 bottles more or less. My husband just gave me as a gift a new bottle for my birthday, so this is my second one AND I STILL LOVE IT, I wear it all the time, I fount it fresh, calm and reminds me Spring time!!!

...or better yet, at first sniff!love the perfume, hate the new bottle, but i guess nothing is perfect.

I bought this one many years ago when I first traveled to NY from Europe. I smelled it on the plane and found it fresh and just bought it on a whimp. But I ended up hating the smell on me: too scharp, it made my eyes tear. Not my kind of smell. In fact the worst one I ever smelled on me. But that's body chemistry for you.

This is the best perfume. It is not strong. It is very fresh but so sweet . I imagine cute women. I and my mom use it. I love it!

i loved this perfume from the moment i tried the tester. i'm quite picky with perfumes, but this one's a perfect choice. Fresh with a bit fruity and a tint of floral. never heavy, and it really makes you happy! :)

My friend had told me how good it smells so I bought it. It has a sweet smell to it and yes I would buy it again (of course after I try all your other fragrances)

it's nice and fresh. reminds watermelon a lot. it's been my favorite for about 3 years. :)

This fragrance is so light, soft and fresh. It reminds me of a day in spring in rome...walking and enjoying the sun, feeling the warmth on the skin and smelling this flowery flavor...The world feels easy while wearing "l'eau par kenzo".

One of the freshest and cleaniest scents in the market. Kenzo sure did know what he was doing.

Best perfume I have ever used!!! My boyfriend won't let me wear anything else!

I used to like it at first, but it become boring and too plain, soon. Two thirds of my bottle is still full, I don't think i'm going to use it again. It is fresh, that is truth, but it has something of men's cologne. Not very distinctive, and all in all nothing special. I liked the men's version, too, when I tried it in a perfumery and bought it for my husbandt but he hates it!!!

Feel the spring with this fragrance. Like a breath of fresh air. Pure.Calm.

This fragrance is wonderful. It smells of fresh flowers with a fruity twist. I love this one it has a nice calming effect.

Every time I wear this I think of a Japanese garden. I adore it!!

Great one!

WOW WHAT A FRAGRANCE!!!! L'eau d'Issey is nothing compared to this beauty.

It is very fresh, a real summer fragrance, but it can't be compared with Eau D'Issey. L'Eau Par Kenzo is kind of simple cologne, and L'Eau D'Issey is a much more classier fragrance.

Great fragrance!Perfect for all seasons. Nice,delicate and exquisitely feminine.And I think it actually smells far better than L´EAU D´ISSEY

Great fragrance! Good for all seasons.Nice,fruity, fresh and delicately feminine. And the scent never tires you out. I think this swmells better and has more personality than L´eau d´Issey

Terrible. Would think that is fresh, but actually very strong and sweet. Too fruity.

Very good for summer. Strong cucumber note, it's almost unisex fragrance.Refreshing. (But it's not as good as Eau d'Issey!)

I can't get enough of this perfume. The scent never gets boring, although I wish it lasted longer. They should offer body lotion too. You've got to try this one!

this fragrance is very fresh and cirtrus-y. i enjoy it very much.

This is the best perfumre ever!
