Wonderfully green (ah!), irritating, lion tooth green, grassy, aromatic. Herbaceous. Mineral. Pond water, slightly brackish. What grows on a stream. View into the sky, treetops. Native, exotic? Weird.

Earth, well-watered. Sun-heated. Roots break through the earth's surface.
Barefoot, freshly creamed. Men's skin, women's fragrance. A dragonfly.

Foreign matter, bitter, sour, a straw to chew on. Tastes bad, spit out.
After one hour maggi herb and wood, but somehow, well let's say "apart" (horrible word). Light smoke, somewhere at the edge of the forest hangs a little fog and PiffPaff despite summer day in the forest feeling.

And jungle in general. Lianas too, I'm sure. With pine resin, yes, yes, quite cross-faunatic.

Now I remember the Buxus from the Margiela Untitled. It is always a little oppressive, and attracts attention, even years later.

Is there bark mulch? Bang - a flint falls down and it dusts. Somewhere a mouse rustles and fur leaves a light musk scent. Not clean, but rather such stripped undercoat from a green-spotted saw- er mammal, which I have never seen at Sielmann like this.

I'm going to fan myself some fresh air with a palm leaf. I don't know if I really smell it.
To the smoke comes the blue-green freshness of Vetiver, yes, I like to stay with it and the scent with me. So about five hours more.

P.S.: You see: At AugustA the fragrance is coming along well, but that took some tests with a long time interval (years!). In this way, it changes from one (un)possible green to the next between superficially unagitatedly fresh synthetic bathroom shower tile green and off on the liana through the jungle. I think it's funny now and I really like to wear it now and then. Some people think it's a solid men's fragrance. Either way, off into the countryside! And a Hallali for all golfers who stumbled over the vine! Green remains green and is not always green. It won't get any greener!

Hammer & Disappointment
This fragrance always reminds me of a nice trip to Hamburg and its beautiful Alsterchaussee.

The Dift is pure nature for me, a forest somewhere in Scandinavia and when I close my eyes absolutely unique. My opinion!!!

I'm definitely deviating from many reviews with a clear buy recommendation, but I love it!

Despite all that, I just have to confess...where is the shelf life?

I have to apply it 3 times a day and to me that is not the point of a well thought out fragrance!

Nevertheless, I would like to add it to my collection again and am already looking forward to the memory of the great weekend trip to Hamburg, which may give me a little holiday feeling in this *.....-Zwit* :)

Very green!
I like the scent, it is very fresh and green, reminiscent of a walk in the woods with a short break at the refreshing stream. Or freshly showered in the summer. The gunpowder develops over time wonderfully to the grassy scent in addition and gives a coherent composition. For me, the perfume is underrated here, I smell it insanely happy on my friend.

Green, green, green are all my clothes...
Exactly. Green. There's not much more...

Well I like the CdG concept, and Comme des Garcons 2, Concrete and even Blackpepper do a lot of things right, not to mention the Incense sub-series, which is a dream. "Amazingreen" on the other hand plays it safe and starts with a fresh green opening, which could also come out of the garden shredder on a beautiful July morning. One touch too much of the good stuff, the vetiver provides the necessary freshness kick, but as a green lover you can certainly come to terms with it. But not with the lack of changeability and the disappointing stamina.

"Amazingreen" runs comparatively linear after the above mentioned opening, and if you like the top note, you can indulge in it for a good quarter of an hour. I like it, and honestly, I don't need any development at all: this is summer freshness, which is finally achieved without the use of excessive aquatic notes, and that makes the fragrance very pleasant. Of course Hérault helps with a lot of synthetics, but I find such fragrance experiments legitimate, and CdG is ultimately known for exactly that - and popular.

But... for God's sake ... if you already have a complete chemistry set in your drawer, then please put SOMETHING in it that keeps the scent fresh on me for more than an hour. And ideally, it should also prevent all the lights from going out after two hours, even at close range. Then I promise you, high and holy, I will wear the top note with pride every morning to work. But with the lack of puff, Amazingreen and I won't be friends anymore in this life. It's a shame, really.

Too green to be true...
Today I brought this treasure to the surface while deep diving in the sample box.
I haven't really had the time to take a closer look at CdG fragrances. But I like the concept with the intentionally synthetic looking fragrances quite well.

Amazingreen also never smells like a real meadow at any time. It is all much too bright green, reinforced by the slightly hot pepper accord. I wouldn't call it fresh, it has something pungent, but not unpleasant. It actually has something of a virtual scenery. The meadow is as grass-green as it will never be in real life, smells much too much like grass. But it's not unpleasant.

Amazingreen darkens somewhat in the heart note. What is probably called "flintstone" here, I perceive as something dark and smoky, slightly metallic. And lots of vetiver, but also anything but natural smelling. The longer I have the scent on, the more the smoky and green notes fade. I'm missing a counterpart on the base. The emphatically artificial vetiver makes the whole thing look a bit cheap after all. Like a cheap aftershave, which wants to smell as MASCULINE as possible.

Durability and silage are above average. Because the fragrance is very special, you should be rather reserved when spraying. You gotta like that kind of thing. If you don't have a problem with the artificial smell of green, you can take a closer look at Amazingreen

A vegetable salad marinated in shampoo and flower pot water. Inoffensive, but peculiar enough to be noticed.

Very pleasant and refreshing. Definitely fits the description of a green scent. Smells great for casual or business wear, warm or cold.

Actually reminds me of Note di Colonia I, but slightly more synthetic and metallic. Fresh, nice.
