Christmas Tree?
This one is wild to me. It smells exactly like a Christmas tree farm specializing in Douglas Fir trees. It has the same fragrant resin scent and an earthiness reminiscent of the forest. It is beautiful, but because of this association, I find it hard to understand why it's considered a summery fragrance. I definitely will be wearing it all through the early winter.

Toasted Nuts
Despite the notes, this one comes out as a slightly sweet roasted pecan on me. The praline was very forward, and the fruit very limited. I enjoy it and added it to my "liked" group. I LOVE the bottle of this, but I don't feel like it matches the scent at all. I expected this to be much more fruity and floral, but it wears so unexpectedly on my skin.

Stranger Compliment Getter!
So the very first time I wore this, we ended up going out to a sports bar type restaurant. After a couple stops at our table, our server says "I don't know who it is, but someone over here smells delicious." I was wearing Eclair and had Not Your Mother's "Warm Sugar" dry shampoo in my hair. The combination had me smelling distinctly like a doughnut shop, which is definitely enjoyable in the cooler months. Not sure this will be the go-to come hot & humid summer though.

Citrus Pine???
This fragrance confuses me. It opened strongly citrus on my skin and slowly resolved into a fir Christmas tree. I didn't pick up any rose, but I think the saffron is there. It is pretty, but also strongly reminiscent of lemon pinesol on me. I wouldn't hate smelling like this, but it isn't what I'm looking for.

Scent
Sharp Soapy Floral
Ain opened with a very sharp note that was almost overpowering. As it dried down, it developed a more common bouquet floral with a soapy base. It reminds me of walking into a soap or candle shop...a generally pleasant smell, but difficult to tease apart and doesn't quite come together into a cohesive scent. I wouldn't be offended by this fragrance, but won't likely seek it out.
