Libertine Vivienne Westwood 2000

I love Shera Pop's reviews, but it's kind of comical how different things smell to me than they do to her. (Perhaps we should write our own "Holey Book?")

Libertine doesn't suit its name, as far as I can smell. Rather than being something that the sexually adventurous would wear, I think of it as a fresh scent reminiscent of a spring salad. The strongest scent to me here is cilantro (which is not a listed note!) among other soft green notes, as if it were one of those mesclun mixes of baby lettuces and herbs. (I imagine, but don't smell, a light balsamic vinegar and olive oil dressing.) It's topped by a soft, ever-so-slightly candied pineapple. It's one of those meals that is both delectable and healthy. It cools me in hot weather.
