Bee Butter Organic Wool Sweater Teacher
I have it at home and use it often.
The scent notes listed here don't mean much to me. When I think there should be Neroli in it, I can believe it, but I wouldn't have come to that conclusion myself. Neroli generally smells warm to me but also mossy fresh-cool. However, there is definitely nothing cool-fresh about this. I can imagine that the part of Neroli here acts in a way that "charmingly musty immediately forces me slightly dark to the ground." On the Rituals site, it says that Neroli is the base, but... It could be that Neroli is technically the base here, but for me, it is completely hidden by a sweet note, so I am not aware of it.
Sandalwood is probably the woody slightly "bee-world-like" undertone that persists until the end. However, I usually know sandalwood notes to be creamier-soft and more recognizable.
All the notes seem to be glued together.
But let's start again,
in the top phase, I smell something that resembles red pepper. And consistently something oily-buttery mood-dampening. I only wear the perfume when I am sure that it is pleasant for me to smell buttery for these few hours.
I don't know why, but in my imagination, I always see a serious-diligent honeybee going about its daily tasks when I smell L'Eclat by Rituals. Or a strict well-groomed teacher with a short gray haircut, whose home decor follows strict aesthetic rules. The scent also reminds me a bit of onion tea with honey, which I once had as medicine as a child, and I can imagine it smells like this when someone exhales their breath after such a drink. Additionally, it triggers an association with mammals and milk for me. I already mentioned butter. Overall, L'Eclat partly reminds me of body scents that one subtly perceives when meeting someone. Not meant in a disgusting way, but neutrally as a hint!
Statistically speaking, I believe it fits best with older ladies who appreciate a subtly-elegant quality. Among younger people, perhaps health food store visitors, yoginis, and "herb witches" in sheep wool, for whom wooden furniture and pretty tea packages mean something. Maybe also to milk lovers.
