Mood Booster In A Nutshell
Olfactory Lab Green The is a perfume that gives you a sense of pleasure, lightness and happiness, courtesy of floral and refreshing essences that improve your mood. The citrus aroma is prominent in the initial notes and joins the spicy and herbaceous scents. The floral bouquet creates a restorative state of heart notes, and the particular fruit accord completes it. The dense and deep aroma of dry wood reaches a peaceful and pleasant state in the base notes thanks to a musky accord. It wasn't part of my first loot, as I already have many green tea items. It was just another brick in the wall, something like Green Tea Eau Parfumée and related flankers, or Green Tea, and so on, which I love, but ultimately they're similar. Instead, this is a no-brainer for me. Citrus, green, floral and woody, I absolutely love it.

Green The announces with a burst of bitter, tangy and powdery bergamot zest flanked by sour lemon green tea leaves, something like lemongrass. An overdose of black pepper adds spice to the citrus and herbaceous accords. The initial stage is fresh, dry, spicy, green, and bitter, with a virile bent without being overtly masculine. The tea note is airy and maintains the freshness of the opening. In fact, it's pretty amazing how long bergamot remains detectable in all the middle notes and almost in the base notes.

After a few minutes, the essence warms up and melts on the skin. The dryness takes on a floral edge, and the sweet, indolic sambac white jasmine slowly exudes. There is a more subtle shade of rosy. However, the scent could be more feminine and floral. The flowers add a delicate touch without being too flashy. But the part I like the most is the mineral touch that the fig fruit adds to the heart, milky without veering towards the coconut. The result is a mineral, milky, almost powdery floral. Like hay left in the sun to dry, green tea continues to shine and does not fade but simply fades into the background. The fig leads the dance, followed by the tea leaves.

If the opening is almost pure lemon green tea, the base develops musky and woody nuances, clean and soft the first, dry and chipped the second. This is a gem. All accords are balanced and well blended to my nose, from florals to citrus fruits to woods. Refreshing with green and floral elements with a sophisticated base without being overly woody or musky.

In summary, the performance is moderate, as it doesn't project far and it's intimate. After a few hours, this turns into a leather scent, but I can still smell slight traces on my skin under the sheets the following day. When sprayed on clothes, the green side of the perfume will linger for hours. Ultimately improve your mood. It could be a signature scent of summer, a luminous fragrance that really cuts through the heat and humidity with its pungent freshness. It can also be easily worn in the last months of spring and in the first months of autumn, more during the day than at night. Not offensive to the office, incredibly suitable for a walk in hot and humid weather and an absolute bargain at a discount price.

I'm basing my thoughts on a bottle I have owned since May 2023.

The citrus aroma rules at first, joining the spicy and herbal hues. A floral posy creates a tonic state, and the fruit accord completes it.
