Himalayan Red Grass - anybody?

"An unconventional blend of rich floral and daring fruity notes with an aromatic twist". P&G's marketing department has chosen some intriguing adjectives for their cardboard sample text. Alas, none of this blurp is true. "Boysenberry" in the top notes? I smell some nondescript fruit-thing. "Himalayan red grass?" Hello? That's a new one. Who would be in a position to judge what Himalayan red grass smells like? Good idea. Come up with some new aromachemical and label it with an exotic title...
Then we have "black tea" and "jasmine". Well, probably the one sold in plastic bottles with added preservatives and artificial sweetener. The base is supposed to contain "amber". Fine. That's kind of a wide notion... ample opportunity for the chemists to insert whatever they deem cheap enough into that uninventive bottle looking like a copy of Chanel's "Chance". Unconventional? Daring? Yes, the companie's statements about their new fruity-floral baby are extremely daring. The fragrance itself is boring and generic.
