Cozy Lemon
This is a lemonade flavored with ginger. Its sweet, tart, and little warm from the spice. It feels fresh and bright, but a little bit warming. The woody middle and spicy musky finish adds depth to what otherwise would be a linear fragrance. It feels like it would be great for summer and cozy in the autumn. I would say its almost comparable to Sanrovia by Blocki, in that they are both citrus woody scents. Check out both and see which is for you. This is a skin scent, so not great on projection but it did last about 4 hours. There are several price point options, $105 for 15ml and $170 for 50ml.

Exactly as advertised
I put on a spritz of Dual and asked my husband what he thought of it. His words: "Super fresh. Like a really nice watery, woody scent. With like just enough citrus to be nice but not be too much." The description on Andrea Maack's website: "...inspired by the calming water of the natural hot springs in the Icelandic highlands. This fragrance mimics the feeling of fresh water on the skin ... The powerful, uplifting aromas of ginger, lemon and pink pepper coexists with the grounded woody elements of dry amber and cedar wood resulting in an enlivening scent experience."

Exactly what it says on the tin. It's a nice freshie that isn't groundbreakingly unique but is just different enough to stand out among the crowd. The ginger and lemon are really nicely balanced. On the dry down, you get a calming cedar note, a not too spicy pepper, and the warmth of amber tying it all together. Full bottle worthy if you want a new freshie.

Sharply fresh (straightforward lemon+ginger) & steamy-dreamy. Unusually easily likable Maack. Please teleport me to the spa in Iceland ;)

Is it art or does it come from the drugstore? More on the synthetic side...... But what really grows in Iceland!?

Citrusy, later floral-sweet and amber-creamy scent. It's well done, but it's one of the weaker fragrances from the brand.

Fresh and cologne-like with woody, spicy, and floral hints. More of a whisper than a statement, and there are similar ones that whisper more beautifully.

OK, remarkable: a drugstore Maack. Citrus-fresh wood, zesty, bright-spicy, ambered, fluffy, green-floral, subtly smoky. Nope.

Underrated? In my opinion, it smells very similar to LV Imagination, but the terrible longevity ruins all the enjoyment.

I get tea associations, but I find nothing in the pyramid oO Primarily citrus-woody-creamy with a slightly sweet note. Close to the skin.

Citrusy, floral.
Unfortunately, the longevity isn't great.
It's good for everyday wear.

A soft lemon with sparkling ginger. All wrapped in amber. For me, it feels like a dark cologne.
