Marc Jacobs Rain Perfume: From the Splash Collection

The Marc Jacobs name is not one to rest easily with the conventional, thus the Splash Collection was created as an alternative to revered, sparingly-used designer fragrances. The Splash scents are light and modern, perfect to be used post bath or shower – and are meant to be applied a bit more liberally than his other perfumes. These softly-scented, limited-edition perfume splashes are released seasonally in different collections.

The Debut

The first Marc Jacobs Splash collection, released in 2006, included the very popular Marc Jacobs Rain perfume in the fist Splash trio -- Rain, Cotton, and Grass. The creators of these perfumes designed them to reflect Marc Jacob's most beloved summer scents. The Splash collection was also unique when it was introduced because most high-end designer perfume names focus on the Eau De Parfums, leaving Marc Jacobs to debut the designer body splash.

The scent is both complex and subtle, meant to reflect the light and refreshing aspect of post-rainfall, as well as the rich and earthy undertones.
