#3 Green, Green, Green and... Green
Fragrance notes
Character
You open with a sharp slap of lemon verbena and bay leaf, like crushing a handful of garden herbs between your fingers. The mastic and coriander twist in with a green, resinous bite, almost camphoraceous, while a faint whisper of jasmine and fruity notes softens the edges. This is no soft meadow stroll. It is a tangled, overgrown hedge in the rain, wet leaves and torn stems, balsamic and woody at the base with Virginia cedar and vetiver anchoring the mess. The overall character is that of a bohemian greenhouse where someone has just trampled the mint patch. It feels natural but not naive, niche in its refusal to be pretty.
The numbers tell the honest story: longevity is short, sillage is a quiet murmur. You will catch wafts for a couple of hours, then it retreats to a skin scent. That is fine for a spring afternoon picnic or a humid summer evening, but if you want a fragrance that announces itself from across the room, skip this one. It suits those who love the smell of freshly cut stems and bitter green herbs, who prefer intimacy over projection. Wear it when you are reading in a garden café or cycling through a farmer’s market. It is a green that fades too fast, but while it lasts, it is gloriously real. 🌿
