Admittedly, I initially remembered Green Irish Tweed (GIT) quite differently. After my first testing about 2 years ago, it was also fresh-green but somehow a juicier green. Since GIT unfortunately exceeds my budget, I switched to the well-known alternative Armaf Tres Nuit. At first, I thought: "Hmm, this doesn't remind me at all of my first GIT test." In the meantime, due to its catastrophic longevity on my skin, it has been downgraded to my gym scent.
Today I tested GIT extensively on my skin again. "Oh, Tres Nuit is actually much closer than I thought." However, that still doesn't make the Armaf any better for me. The herbal character of GIT is simply unbeatable, the grassy notes deeper, more complex, and more natural. An old-school formula, as most know it in this style, and yet GIT has a modern and timeless twist for me. In my nose, it is quite different from Cool Water, although I have no comparison with the vintage version. The perfect companion for spring, it doesn't scream and is not intrusive.
