Garden Without Rain
Lily of the valley, freshly mown grass, soap.
I would have expected something earthy, but it just smells fresh and green. I can also imagine it well as a room spray.
Wearable!

Demeter can do it differently
Demeter has skillfully captured the scent of sandalwood. One shouldn't expect a complex
scent development here, yet fortunately, the fragrance evolves in the first hour, as "Sandalwood"
unfortunately has a slightly cheesy beige note. It can't be my skin, as I cleaned it
with alcohol beforehand and tested it a second time. On paper, this
impression is even stronger. In the sillage, the unwanted scent component
is not perceptible and luckily it disappears completely after at most an hour.
"Sandalwood" is dry-woody, bright, unobtrusive, but not boring.
I can easily imagine it for blending, but also on its own.
The longevity is surprisingly good, and it might even find its way into my
collection.

Gestanque
I can confirm green notes and moss, but then the "scent" changes after about 5 minutes into something I've smelled before. Namely, when you let water sit for a long time in a larger container (for watering plants, for example), certain bacteria (the name has slipped my mind) multiply, and the water takes on that typical, somewhat moldy-sharp smell, which has absolutely nothing to do with patchouli or mold.
Moss and greenery hold on until the end - then it becomes (almost) pleasant - and the stench lessens, but unfortunately does not disappear completely.
The sillage is okay, and the longevity is limited to about 4 - 5 hours.
The moss and the green notes alone would get a solid 80%, but unfortunately, this is not quite suitable for everyday wear (for me), my fellow humans would surely be a bit irritated.
"Dirt" is supposedly one of Madonna's favorite perfumes...

Honey, I have a headache!
Why shouldn't a man say that to his beloved?
If HE sprays himself with it beforehand, he also has a good, convincing alibi or simply, if he has taken time off and she shouldn't know anything about it.
But he should hurry, because after 10 minutes the magic is over.
To me, it doesn't smell exactly like turpentine, but rather like a mix of coniferous wood and nitro thinner.
60% for originality, because it's more of a scent than a perfume.
PS:
If I breathe on my wrist after 2 hours, the "fragrance" is again barely noticeable.

Blind Purchase
I auctioned for this perfume without knowing what it was. The seller did the same in front of me, hoping it was "Watch." Since it was too strong for her, I bought it hoping there was a lot of patchouli in it.
Unfortunately, we were both mistaken, and so I started testing it today after receiving it.
The top note is not strong but rather medicinal-alcoholic, and at first, I thought it had gone off. After 5 minutes, however, I was sure it was Oud. Rose and Oud are very clearly perceivable from the start, and the other notes just round everything off a bit. Vanilla and musk are only hinted at and make the perfume soft and lovely.
It reminds me a bit of Rose Oud from The Body Shop.
All in all, a perfume for everyday wear, with which you definitely won't clash. Friendly, bright, feminine, lovely, and fresh.
