The Citrusy Fig....

For me, the brand "Clean Reserve" is the ultimate rediscovery.
Why?
As I mentioned in my first comment about "Chanel Égoïste," I focus on specific aspects when it comes to a fragrance. Even if some readers might chuckle now - it should be - healthy - or rather - not harmful. For me, two substances have particularly come into focus for a long time, which I believe could be skillfully omitted. Even the most expensive and exquisite fragrances often contain these substances. I'm talking about Ethylhexyl and Butylphenyl.
Even today, fragrances can simply be preserved with alcohol. With these two substances, tinted bottles or even completely opaque bottles can be produced. Surely, some will now say: "Well, Citronellol, Geraniol, and whatever else they are called also belong to the natural allergens." Nevertheless, I assert that it is particularly these two chemical substances that have a significant impact.
Therefore, it holds even more true for me: RESPECT for this fragrance, in many ways.
1. Despite a summery citrus fig scent, the longevity is somewhat longer than with other candidates in this area. However, you can't compare it to Chanel "Blanche."
2. The sustainability of the company.
3. The manageable ingredients.

Regarding the scent, I must say that I smell fig the entire time. The lemon is subtly present, but for my nose, it’s just nuances. So here, it is clearly not a classic citrus fragrance. This scent makes me happy and allows me to start the day relaxed.
For those interested:
To better perceive further facets and nuances of a fragrance, I always use a method that will make some laugh out loud.
Every time I smell the fragrance on my skin at certain intervals, I lean in with my lips to the sprayed area and exhale against it while simultaneously inhaling through my nose. I only detect some facets through this method.
Well, free from the motto: A person without quirks is boring:-).

In this sense, I embrace you Citron Fig:-)

I had to chuckle at your sniffing method; I do the same thing. It works great. I've really enjoyed the Clean Reserve fragrances I've tried so far, especially the sillage-it's something special, just right.
