A Sense Of Peace Of Mind
Aromatic Greens belongs to the Eau De Parfum Collection, initially composed of three pieces, including Infinite Aqua and Refined Woods , to which Amber Breeze has been added later. I had the opportunity to test them as soon as they were launched. I was pleasantly surprised by the leap in the quality of the fragrances, which were less ordinary and more refined than in previous collections. The initial price was in the medium-low range of €30. I was waiting for a favourable opportunity to buy them all. And here, Notino offers free shipping and all three perfumes at around €20, so I jumped at the chance. It surprises me that the rating is somewhat unfavourable on this and other sites. I understand that not everyone likes perfume, but I find inappropriate negative comments that use derogatory or even offensive adjectives or say that the perfume smells terrible because it doesn't suit their taste.
Aromatic Greens cologne is a woody green essence that announces with an imprinted bitterness, like a walk through nature. Courtesy of sour lemon, neither sweet nor acid, which reminds me of unripe green rind. The bitter lemon fuses with a balmy mint, a smooth mentha citrata whose leaves are very delicate with a pleasant lemon scent; poor on menthol flavour with an intense fruity-fresh aroma. Perhaps lemon is not the only citrus in the essence as I seem to feel an unmistakable yuzu, not mentioned, which might be an illusion of the lemon-absinthe mix. But what makes appealing this green kickoff more is a touch of aromatic absinthe, with its unique warm, sharp, dry-woody and herbaceous tones. Underneath, the dry pencil shavings' redolence is lingering and kicking from the bottom layer.
Slowly, the freshness turns into a polished heart of powdery elements. Both iris root and violet leaf engage in this middle stage and create a dusty nuance that is never akin to baby powder or talcum. Hidden in the core, I catch a crisp fruitiness mixed with greenness. I can feel the sour & sweet tinge of the green apple. I am not talking about sugary apples on par with Boss Bottled Eau de Toilette. However, it’s a detectable and agreeable apple.
Finally, a loamy blend of woods and leaves creeps in to set the finale. The cedar that showed itself early in the opening joins a modern and clean patchouli, without dark edges, more woody and musky than earthy. A slight hint of coumarin blends and adds warm amber tones. The cologne remains in the green and woody territory without gourmand traces.
This perfume is suitable for the office, harmless, and light, this perfume is perfect for leisure time and sport. It gives me a sense of peace of mind and drives away my evil thoughts. Seasonally, both autumn and spring are the best times, due to the greenery which is never too cool or too hot. The performance is just below average, it lasts several hours even if it settles quickly like a perfume on the skin. Compared to Infinite Aqua it seems to be more performing.
I'm basing my reflections on a bottle I've owned since June 2023 (BC 2348).
