Remember Jean Naté After-Bath Splash? It was that light, florally-citrus, all-over body scent that was so unmistakably 80s. And even though I probably haven't thought of "bath splash" since the big-hair decade – (and I was amazed to know that Revlon still makes it, albeit in a mist version) – I was reminded of this "clean-never-felt-so-fresh" little gem when I noticed that Marc Jacobs has his own line of splashes (they're a little more upscale, of course).
The brand has been creating body splashes for the last couple of years, and this season, they come in refreshing-sounding sorbet scents like basil, grapefruit and pear. While I haven't tried them yet, and have never been known to partake in the "after-bath-splash" phenomenon, I have to admit they look delightfully retro and fun to use (and of course, a great scent choice for summer, when you don't want to drown in a heady cloud of fragrance).
So, what say you? Would you wear a splash?

Yes, but not this one. The bottle is more than $60, which is too much to pay for something with no strength or lasting power, even though you get a ton of it. The freagrances are pleasant but no nicer than Bath & Body Works.
I don't care for heavy fragrance, so I love body splashes. I adored the Marc Jacobs Cucumber splash last year. I had not seen the Grapefruit! I will have to go looking for it to see what it smells like. I am a pretty big grapefruit fan!
marc jacobs amber splash is marvelous, but hard to find. some ulta's have it...i just can't bear to drop sixty dollars on it!
My mum adores Marc Jacob's splash in Rain and Cucumber, but apparantly you do need to put a whole load on if you want the scent to stay. Seem's like a lot of money for a perfume you can't smell easily...
I bought Marc Jacobs Cucumber last May, and I still have some left. I get compliments on it everywhere I go and for me it lasts all day. The price is steep...but man it has lasted me so long...and I wear it everyday!
I smelled the Basil, Pear, and Grapefruit scents. They are divine and PERFECT for summer!
