An ELLE editor says: “Like the original Elizabeth Green Tea fragrance, this one sparkles on your skin. The first time I sprayed it, the first word that came out of my mouth was ‘summer.’ I usually get headaches or feel nauseous when scents are too heavy, but I feel there’s no limit to how many times I can spritz this on myself in one go—that’s how fresh and light it is.” —Carol Lee
