Seta

The first 'tea' scent. A green one with jasmine. Plus a bit of soapy spice (coriander?). For more substance, coumarin. Well balanced.

The Japanese monk sits by the garden pond. It's drizzling lightly. From the wooden temple, lemon, pepper, and coriander waft in. Gentle tranquility.

Summer freshness in the green citrus garden, lovely! But alas, the humidity approaches: cloying synthetic sandalwood and sweet musk. Why, Alberto?

One of the most beautiful 'cosmetic powder-lipstick-raspberry spritzer scents'. No dominant sweetness or synthetic sharpness. But later a baby powder touch.

It won't get any greener! Tree leaves rustle around me, a strong breeze of grass... Later, bright frankincense resin. Natural and clear...

Perfectly blended: Dark wood, but fresh. Cold and warm. Resinous-medical-eucalyptus note - cardamom! The latter is too strong later,...

Starts off dazzlingly bright: white flowers, a bit of iris, and green. Classic! Then it fades into floral soap, unfortunately of the mundane kind.....

A harmonious scent. Iris with soft creamy spice, subtly sweet-powdery. But a retro hairspray association and the minimal sillage are off-putting.

Unfortunately, iris is immediately overshadowed by very sweet spicy patchouli. It feels similar to tonka amber to me. Fresh fruits are a no-show.

Iris total, but tamed. Earthy and cold is warmed by rosy clouds. Then a non-sticky powder with a slight play-dough touch.
