Created by Richard Ibanez, Eau Divine performs like an Eau de Cologne, even though it's an Eau de Parfum.

Essentially, it's a peppery citrus offering that's more spicy than sweet, yet it fails to leave a lasting impression. Firstly, it isn't as juicy or vibrant as one had originally hoped. Secondly, its ephemeral nature requires constant re-application throughout the day, lasting only a couple of hours at a time.

As natural-smelling as it is, it's very underwhelming and exhibits a derivative designer spiciness as it develops. With so many satisfying citrus fragrances available, regardless of concentration, Eau Divine is pretty much a redundant release.
