Lemon freshie
First of all, I'm sorry to say that the durability is a joke.

But it is still one of my absolute favorite fragrances, but how can that be?

I wear it on 3 occasions:

1. to go jogging
-perfect for a quick wake-up and for an extra energy boost before you start running (important: only really put it on 3 seconds before you leave the house)
2. as motivation to learn
-here again the energy boost comes into play and because it evaporates quickly you can spray yourself with it again and again without it ever being too much (price-performance could be better, but it takes a really long time until a bottle is empty)
3. as a good mood kick
-self-explanatory, but the scent just reminds me of summer and fresh lemon ice cream
So my expectation is never that it has to last long :)

Tart Mediterranean Lemons
Quite simply put, this is the most natural smelling, non-synthetic, invigorating and green leafy verbena in a bottle.

As I smell this I am reminded of the green leafy tips of lemon, oranges, and citrus zests, all slightly shaken by the swift breeze, on a spring morning in a lush, green garden.

It has a tart, sour grapefruit like wince inducing opening reminiscent of lemon sorbets that morphs beautifully and seamlessly into a sweet, creamy and fruity textured verbena.

Its longevity has much to be expected from and for a citrus heavy fragrance is too standard,(relatively better than the original 4711 Eau De Cologne), on my skin I don't get much beyond 4 hours mark, which is the only major letdown especially given that is not as affordable as 4711.

However if longevity is not your concern you are left with one of the most beautiful and natural renditions of verbena, that is at once verdant, lush, leafy and momentarily potent.

Add a little zesty zing to your stride when you wake up in the spring morning to go out for a walk in the lush green fields.

Verveine is a very easy fragrance to fall in love with, and as the opening dissipates you are still left with a sweet, creamy and blissfully fruity version of the Provencal fields with a little spiciness of geranium.

Overall Rating: 8 /10

Verveine - we drive towards the sun

L occitane has been one of my favourite companions in the shower as well as for skin and hand care for many years. In addition, the wonderfully packaged products in the most diverse combinations are always a great gift idea. But now to this fragrance.
The fragrance series Verveine is for me one of the best mood enhancers for the summer. The fragrance is simply constructed and extremely effective. No frills, no big changes, even without a significant durability. This is less a multi-faceted fragrance program but a real mood enhancer. Light, cheerful and exhilarating you feel after the Verveinenebel. Here it may be also gladly a splash more. The scent does not stick, does not become a challenge for the environment. The process is simple and clear. Lemon as pure as you can imagine with a slight softening to a soft, warm orange. Verbena adds a little spice to Provence. Rose and geranium are barely perceptible at the end, let alone lasting or obtrusive. After two to three hours the pleasure is hardly present but what the hell. The sun has been there, has done its job and can break out behind possible clouds again at any time after a few sprays. Have fun with it !

crushed lemon leaves
crushed lemon leaves, sweet and a little bit bitter, zesty, uplifting, fresh, perfect for hot summer days. Much sweeter than their green tea. Good trail and lasts about 4 hours on me.

Only for Verbena lovers. Too vibrant, pungent and sour for my tastes. Anyway extremely energizing and rinvigorating in summer

Pure citrus. I think it would work better as a home fragrance than as a wearable.
