A Fragrance for Cooling Off

I was looking for a new summer fragrance. So, I watched several videos on this topic. This scent appealed to me because of the mint and the cooling effect described in the video. I then looked into the brand and what it stands for. In short, affordable bottles with high-quality content. I ordered a tester and was immediately convinced and placed an order.
The packaging was surprisingly good. The fragrance was delivered in a foldable cardboard box. It now sits in my collection. The bottle is very unassuming but still does not feel cheap. When you take off the cap, it is very light and completely made of plastic. The sprayer is surprisingly good and disperses widely.

At first, the fragrance presents a strong, almost sharp blend of mint, grapefruit, and bergamot. The mint especially stands out. This combination is very fresh and citrusy and has a very cooling effect. The sharp character fades quickly, and the scent becomes lighter and greener. The grapefruit and bergamot move to the background. The mint remains in the foreground, and a green blend of oakmoss and cucumber joins in. In the end, the mint persists throughout the entire scent journey.

I really like this fragrance on truly hot summer days, 25 degrees and above, and sunny. Being outdoors a lot makes it perfect. Especially the cooling effect comes into its own then. If you like mint and are looking for this kind of scent, you are in the right place. The longevity/sillage is average but nothing special. It lasts on my skin for about 5-6 hours after the opening but relatively close to the skin. You can definitely apply it generously; I usually take about 7-8 sprays.
