The Devil Wears Prada-Tutu
“I want a second pony. I want a canopy for my pug. I want the Dior patent leather shoes without the patent. I want gold leaf on my cupcake. I want a Bentley for my hamster. And I want it now.”

Father, mother, chronic sulker. Pampered, polished, preened, and dressed from head to toe in Dior. Daddy's darling and nanny's bane. Neat, coy, never nice. Scented with childish cleanliness, the powdery-subtle hint of a luxury brat and cherry lip gloss.

This is “Clean Baby Girl.” Still in line with the baby schema, with a certain dry-clean nobility and the signature of “Clean.” But unfortunately also quite prickly: Even before I laid eyes on the fragrance pyramid, I guessed there was an abundance of ylang-ylang. And ta-da!

Moreover, so much plastic cherry is mixed into the seemingly innocent powderiness (especially in the top note-perhaps the violet with a botched orange creates such a blend), that the clean innocence gets a bit too much kitsch.

So this “Clean” is not for me. I would have wished for more softness, cleanness, and less fruity sweetness. In other words: I would have thrown the spoiled brat into the wash tub and polished her clean from top to bottom.

Thanks, bunny! And I did find it after all: The not-quite-hit ;-)

Baby Girl in Cougar Town
I find it sweet, cute, and fitting when a pretty young girl answers the question of what fragrance she is wearing with "Clean Baby Girl." I find it a bit silly when an old chubby guy says it, but it is what it is: I have fallen in love with this scent and have recently made it my own.
CBG came to me in a fragrance letter from Blauemaus. (Blauemaus = Schlauemaus! :-*) I had previously tested "Provence," "Shower Fresh," and "Fresh Laundry" from Clean because I was really interested in them and they fit my preferred fragrance direction (but it didn't click), so CBG didn't even make it onto my watchlist. Well, you shouldn't look a gift horse in the mouth, and of course, I tested it. Luckily. Because I fell in love with it from the very first spray.

It's true, CBG starts with an incredibly artificial note. But I actually find that cool. It's the red gummy bear and the greasy scent from "Talco Delicato" by I Profumi di Firenze that open the door for me here. Only this time not hidden under heaps of powder layers, but nestled on a clean musk bed, lightly dusted with lemon powdered sugar. Deliciously artificial!

Interestingly, people I let smell on my wrist say: Oh, that smells fresh.

How can something that smells so artificially sweet also smell so fresh, I wonder. But it can. Definitely!

Only in the further development of the scent does CBG become powdery and cleaner and gets a laundry detergent touch. It then reminds me of freshly washed pure white and pale pink baby onesies taken from the baby closet, where they lay next to baby powder and baby cream.

Commonalities in the fragrance pyramid of CBG and TD: lemon and violet. Violet! The violet creates the greasy-sweet note! Certainly in combination with the other ingredients (which I can't pick out individually in CBG), but it just occurred to me that I have encountered this note not only in CBG and TD but also in Violettes de Toulouse by Parfums Berdoues. However, in VdT, it's only in the top note; it develops quite differently afterwards.

I want to add that I had my bottle shipped from Canada (60ml for 41,- Euro including shipping!) because I was quite confused about the name and bottle design. The label on my sample had pink bubbles. After googling the bottle, I only found this version pictured here, but with the addition: by Dlish.
I was worried about possibly getting a scent that deviates from that of my sample, so I searched until I finally found it on American eBay. See photo below. Further googling revealed that CLEAN Perfume by Dlish Fragrance Inc. was founded in April 2003. The design with the bubbles might be the original or the American version.

CBG is wearable at all times. The longevity is medium, about 4 to 5 hours on me, but okay for the price, as you can reapply without regret; the sillage is medium to skinny at the end.

It may not suit me as well anymore, neither as a scent nor with the statement, but I think it's great! I feel like the wolf in sheep's clothing ;-)

NOTE 13.05.12: I recently sprayed the scent on my neck and in my hair and could perceive it until late in the evening!

Elfin-like Clean Scent
Thanks to Hasi, I can also test this fragrance.

It is cute.
And clean too.*gg*

It starts off a bit citrusy, fresh, and softly green.

One immediately thinks of freshly washed and sun-dried laundry. However, the laundry has fallen to the ground, amidst the flowers, so that it carries a lovely floral aroma.

The entire scent is clean, lightly powdery, and very pleasant. Nothing is off-putting, making it suitable for everyday wear.

But I still don't perceive it as a young girl's scent. It’s not sweet and playful enough for that.
The fresh note lasts a long time. Only very late does the soft musk note come in, and the wood remains quite subdued. The flowers gently weave through the entire progression. A lovely lavender note subtly dominates.

For a rather delicate, almost elfin-like fragrance, it has good longevity.

Wheel Cleaner
I don't want to offend any lovers of this fragrance with my comment, but my experience with the scent is this:
The notes immediately convinced me and I had to test it.
At first sniff, I smelled orange, lemon, and a bit of ylang-ylang. Very interesting. But then the fragrance immediately transformed into one I know very well: that of my Sonax wheel cleaner! (which turns and removes iron particles on the rims red). Very sharp, chemical, and it gives me a headache. That's how it develops on my skin. Clearly, we don't have the right chemistry. This shows once again how individually perfumes can develop!

Clean and Cozy
This scent was in a fragrance package from Snoopy. Thank you for that! The brand Clean was completely unknown to me until now, although I am definitely open to delicate fragrances.

Clean Baby Girl is such a skinny clean scent. Admittedly a bit synthetic at the start, but after about 10 minutes, this Clean becomes really cozy. Clean. Fresh and powdery. Definitely cute and nibble-worthy, like a baby foot.

It leans towards baby cream or baby care products and is very close to the skin. The ideal scent when you want to smell well-groomed but not perfumed. The longevity is about 3-4 hours, just like all Cleans. It's a shame that it has been discontinued and is now hard to find. Because CBG is the tastiest of all the Clean scents I have tested so far and is perfect for days when you want a clean scent that still has a certain cozy factor. ;-)

Innocent, like a freshly powdered baby. More of a scent you wear for yourself - I think. Still wore it at work back then.
