The Body Shop launches exotic summer fragrance: Fijian Water Lotus

Make Fijian Water Lotus your signature scent this summer.

The Body Shop is thrilled to announce the latest addition to the best-selling Voyage Fragrance Collection: Fijian Water Lotus. Nothing says summer quite like a fresh, vibrant fragrance. And what could be more appealing than a scent that captures the very essence of the tropical island of Fiji?

 Opening with uplifting top notes of mandarin and litsea, the fragrance bursts into a delicate bouquet of Fijian water lotus flower, plucked from the South Pacific Ocean, and rose, before leading into a light yet lively marine accord. Revitalising, refreshing and calming – this is bliss in a bottle.

The Fijian Water Lotus Eau de Toilette and Fragrance Mist contain 100% organic Community Fair Trade sugarcane essence from Cotopaxi, Ecuador. Handmade from sugar cane by the 200 farmers of the CADO co-operative, the high-quality alcohol is perfect for The Body Shop fragrances. The trade between The Body Shop and CADO aims to give co-operative members  a chance to fight poverty without losing their traditional way of life or destroying the environment. The pioneering use of fairly traded organic alcohol by The Body Shop has helped farmers like Carmen Merino, who says that the fair price she receives helps her pay for her four children to go to school.

Go on then, lose yourself in the moment with the new Fijian Water Lotus collection containing perfume oil, fragrance mist, body lotion, eau de toilette, shower gel and body butter. Instantly transport yourself to exotic golden shores, containing natural extract of hand-picked Fijian water lotus.

Sun, sea, sand, palm trees… Sounds idyllic, right? Well, now you can escape to your own tropical island. Wear the products individually or layer up for a lasting scent sensation.
