Don't know how to feel about this one!
It's definitely green! It smells vividly like snapped stems and roadside weeds--a little wild. There's also a slightly funky-sweaty undertone to it that made me nervous, but luckily my skin doesn't emphasize that note. It wears light and springy/summery. Not sure yet if it's a love, but I'm definitely going to wear it throughout the season and see where it takes me.

Nothing to write home about
I am getting the popcorn top note and something toasted and a little nutty ... but it starts incredibly close to the skin and stays there. There's nothing unpleasant or off-putting here, but there's also nothing especially exciting or even noticeable. I have to work hard to smell this on myself at all. The only use I could imagine myself having for this is layering, but not at that price!

Spring in the desert, eventually.
I grew up in the southwest, so I came here looking for that nostalgic creosote note. The floral opening isn't unpleasant, but it's fiercer than I expected for "spring in the desert." As it dries down, it mellows into a sunbaked quality that definitely does evoke the desert for me. The creosote is strongest in the dry-down, soft and earthy, and the cedar note pops in and out.

Gift from my boyfriend
I tried this in the store and wasn't planing to buy it for myself, but my wonderful boyfriend remembered me mentioning how much I like the stupid bottle and bought an opened box off eBay for me. So I've obviously been wearing it, and it's grown on me!

She's VERY sweet, not in a gourmand way (despite the cocoa note, which I don't smell at all) but like sugared petals. If you overspray, it can become cloying, but with a lighter application it's perfectly nice for warm weather. She also layers well.

I still don't think this is a mind-blowing fragrance, and I would've felt bad if my boyfriend had paid full retail price. But at a discount, it's not bad and I've welcomed her into my collection.

Fizzy aldehydes and herbs
This was love at first sniff! Tested it in a niche perfume shop and had to immediately source a decant. The fizzy aldehydes paired with herbs do something delightful and weird to my brain. There's no ginger note, but my brain insists it smells like ginger anyway--not like a cookie but like a freshly chopped, woody ginger root. It also reminds me of a soda, but like a faux-healthy hippie version. I love this on myself and on my boyfriend (though I think he feels very neutral about it). It wears light, and I'm so pleased to be able to wear this all spring and summer.
