Amazing Granny Smith becomes an unfortunate muddled synthetic mess
This perfume was the last one I had to try of the three Dylan for women (Dylan Purple and Turquoise have already been tested and reviewed). Smelling it in store convinced me to grab a travel size of it to test it out further at home.
It's a good thing I refrained myself from buying a 30ml (I'm really impulsive) because now that it's living on my skin, the result is pretty disappointing. Even though the top notes started out with this beautiful tart and crisp granny smith apple, the rest is kind of disappointing. During the better parts of the fragrance, there was the aforementioned apple note, but also a slightly green and fresh floral vibe (probably from the clove and the synthetic ingredients?). In the background, I could smell a slightly fruity, powdery and sweet accord reminiscent of Rockets candy that I truly enjoyed more than I thought. Everything unfortunately came to a grinding halt when the granny smith left its place for a plasticky, cheap scent instead. I could no longer really detect any notes in this messy jumble. It smelled like generic mall perfume.
I know my skin tends to muddle and transform synthetic notes into plasticky cheap scents, so that might be a me (skin chemistry) problem. I really wished the perfume had worked well if only for that amazing green, tart, tangy and juicy granny smith scent, but the rest isn't worth it. I'll probably be trying to empty or sell my travel size. Unfortunate!
