If bubblebaths came in basil version..
Incredibly green fresh soapy basil. Gives the same fresh feel that a pine bubblebath gives off, if these bubblebaths came in basil version ;)
Beautifully herbally clean scent. The Clean series have found their superior in this one, big time!
The herbal with the basil grows stronger and stronger to the point of being "basil-y camphorous" in the end.
A must for summer :)

Rich honeyed flowering black elder
Rich honeyed flower nectar, overpowering sweetness at first. Got me thinking this is headache material for sure.
I can feel some nag champa like incense in the background that initially is drowned out by sunwarmed florals. This incense grows stronger and stronger until there is nag champa and flower equal.
Overall impression is the overly sweet smell of flowering black elder mixed with some sweet white floral mixed with nag champa.
Quiets down abit in the drydown, into a quite pleasant floral incense.
At first I hated this perfume, but the drydown gets me going: Oh wait!

A softer Gilda
A softer less complex version of Pierre Wulff's Gilda. More emphasis on the pineapple here than in Gilda, but overall this is a gentler Gilda.
White pepper over freshly crushed nettles.
Started out as peppery sage with a hint of tobacco and a tiny sweet something in the background. Dried down to white pepper over freshly crushed nettles! Lots and lots of freshly crushed nettles..
Kind of feel like I've gone to nettle crushing garden-war.
Lasts and lasts on my skin.
For reference I get the same crushed nettles and sage feel from Bois d'Ombrie, but in Bois it is mixed in with sharp blackcurrant skins.

If you like Ambre Narguile or L by Lolita Lempicka..
Reminds me alot of Ambre Narguile in the top notes. No matter if it's not all listed I find apples, vanilla, amber and cinnamon. At one point I experience it as a less balanced Ambre Narguile with added rum. The rum lifts the composition somewhat by adding an alcoholic edge, as if you had left the Narguile to ferment/brew a little. But I still prefer Narguile at this stage.
Later it has gone from Ambre Narguile into L by Lolita Lempicka, and I start to wonder why i did not find L here sooner. The mysterious apple stays all through the drydown which ends up warmly as L with yeah, added apple.
On second try I find the L notes alot sooner, but then again now I know they're there ;)
Beautiful, and if I hadn't found Narguile first and/or been a little tired of L, this would be perfect!
