THE VERDICT:

I'm sure you're all aware of my affinity for warm, elegant, floral fragrances, but as a beach bum at heart, I still have room for aquatic fragrances. I've always loved water ever since I was little, and when I was old enough to appreciate perfumes, the first perfume that I fell in love with was Davidoff Coolwater for Women because it reminded me exactly of water: Beach, pools, and even the river near our house in Laguna. But just like any other person, I grew up and so did my preferences-Davidoff will always be my first love, but I wanted to discover other fragrances with the same nature.

The second aquatic perfume that I liked was Bvlgari Omnia Coral, third one was Giorgio Armani Acqua Di Gioia, and the fourth one is this: Ralph Lauren The Big Pony Collection for Women #1: It's an aquatic fragrance that smells so energizing and refreshing, and it reminds me so much of a fun afternoon with friends by the seashore! (Gosh, this is killing me. Take me to the beach! NOW!)

RALPH LAUREN THE BIG PONY COLLECTION # 1 FOR WOMEN IN DETAIL

There are only two recognizable notes here even if the description said it contains various citruses and light florals, and those are Lotus and Grapefruit. Initially, you're wowed by the zesty scent of Grapefruit-Maybe there is a hint of Lemon or Bergamot in the top notes, but they are to insignificant to consider. Then after a few seconds, Lotus starts rolling in to give it a cool, watery appeal and then it ends there. Actually, I like the fact that it only has two dominant notes (perfectly- blended and carefully handpicked dominant notes for that matter) because it made the entire fragrance light and uncomplicated, hence perfect for summer, especially for beach use. Staying power is okay: It lasts for 3- 4 hours, which is expected from an EDT. It has a tad bit masculine character to it, (this is one of the reasons why I love it because it also reminds me of my BF. LOL. Okay I'm cheesy) so if you like something that smells ultra girly yet still super fresh, might I suggest you try The Big Pony Collection # 3 or # 2 EDTs.

Overall, I like it because I appreciate its simplicity and freshness. Great for beach heads like me, sporty females, or those who delight in girly fragrances with a hint of masculinity. Apart from being a great beach fragrance, it's also something you can wear on a very casual day and to school.
