I have have the olive blossom and the water bamboo freesia--both are nice but a little strong---I usually add a spritz in with my body lotions--seems to tone them down.

@jettaforce I was curious about the mint tea. What notes do you smell?

 

I have the vanilla and it's very light. It's a warm vanilla and not sweet. Maybe picking up a bit of the shea. Not sure how else to describe it, hopefully someone else can do a better job Smiley Happy 

 

Has anyone tried the Olive Oil Orchid, Honeysuckle or Bergamot scents?

I have had many of their fragrances through the years.   None of them are overpowering.   They are all very softly scented.  I don't think you can go wrong regardless of the scent you choose.  They are just not that strong.   Love the moisture though!

@ShopperGirl15  I have the Bergamot Scent, it is my favorite of Korress Scents. It is citrus and lemon scented.

Can you tell if it smells more like Lilac or is it more like many of their scents "blended" with other scents? Thank you.

@jettaforce    I am a big fan of the Wild Orchid.  I by it in twos.  I go thru it like water.   It is light and fresh.  I have the Blossom but not my favorite

Re: Korres Fragrance HELP!!

[ Edited ]

Hi @momoftwo2007 ,

 

I have the Korres Olive and Orchid Eau de Parfum Spray fragrance.

 

It is a blend of fragrance notes.

 

I have a couple of their fragrances besides their body creams, and their fragrances are really unique.

 

With the Orchid fragrance, I can first smell the Orchid, but then as it dries down the tea notes show up and it smells kind of "earthy" or "minty" or "green" on me, but in a pretty way and not in a negative way. It's different. Smiley Happy

 

Here is the product description from HSN:
