Création Thé Vert Ted Lapidus 2008

Sounds perfect on paper BUT...
This sounds perfect on paper and was very excited to have this arrive (blind buy, surprise surprise).
The initial spray was like a very sharp, alcoholic EA Green Tea (reminds me of my mum so I have a soft spot for that scent buuuut...). If I thought that was bad... once the alcohol dissipated all I got was spicy celery water. Old spicy celery water. Like musky, nasty celery water. I had to wash it off!
Disappointed because the notes really sounded up my alley but I can't get any of the freshness or crispiness that I've seen others mention, except for at the initial spray (and then it was like a bargain store Green Tea). It also doesn't lean feminine in any way to me: it's very masculine (don't know what exactly is masculine about it but it just feels it, idk), but I also don't think I'd even ask my partner to try this one. It would be torture for the both of us.
I'm left disappointed and wondering if this is a reformulation, or if it just REALLY hates my skin... ;(
