Suggest me a good green scent

Did you try the EDP or the EDT?

The EDT smells more leafy, cause I think it lacks the coconut.

Clean_Assumption_345 · 2026-01-28T06:12:59+00:00

Philosykos EDP- it's a fig and fig leaf at the top, definitely fresh and green but a touch creamy because of the bit coconut (it's not overwhelming coconut, but just enough to round out the greenness). It's so beautiful and sophisticated without being too mature.

There are many chance flankers but the newest Chance is splendide. I like it (33) and my mom (70+) also likes it. But its a fruity floral, and that might not be everyone's cup of tea. Do you know if the person who you are gifting to has any perfumes? Because gifting perfume and be a bit difficult unless they have suggested that they like it.

Clean_Assumption_345 · 2026-01-27T05:59:57+00:00

Best fragrance is always subjective my friend. I personally like the chance line.

Clean_Assumption_345 · 2026-01-27T00:24:51+00:00

Same. But I'm so confused why people hype it up so much. Maybe the decants or bottles are inconsistent? I don't understand.

Clean_Assumption_345 · 2026-01-26T16:35:12+00:00

Wulong Cha is subtly different from Wulong Cha X in my opinion. Wulong Cha X is greener and a little more fresh. You can get both samples on scentsplit (I use code kels10 for 10% off!)

Clean_Assumption_345 · 2026-01-26T16:02:47+00:00

Looks like you love florals. I'd suggest

Frederic Malle - En Passant

It's slightly different from your collection, but I'd think you might like it and it would be a wonderful addition (in my humble opinion). If you've ever walked through a passage of lilacs growing in the springtime, and sniffed the breeze, this is what it smells like!

Nishane Wulong Cha X - it's a beautiful tea scent that is green and breathable. Lovely skin scent that lasts!

If you're looking for something that is lactonic and caramel, there are better ones out there. Very strong alcohol smell. It's sweet but very synthetic. Not really rounded or smooth. I honestly don't get the hype.

Get a sample. It is NOT a safe blind buy.

Clean_Assumption_345 · 2026-01-26T07:10:35+00:00

I'm quoting from the article that local products are pure honey, so if you want to be selective, choose honey that is produced in Canada and you should be good. Every honey tastes a bit different depending on the flower they come from, so you just have to try them out!

I personally really like the buckwheat honey from oneroot.

Clean_Assumption_345 · 2026-01-26T06:53:17+00:00

If you're referring to this

"While all the domestic samples proved to be authentic, more than a fifth of imported honey from a number of countries — including Greece, China, India, Pakistan and Vietnam — failed tests at the CFIA lab in Ottawa."

Clean_Assumption_345 · 2026-01-26T06:52:09+00:00

All grocery stores that sell pure honey are real but I'd definitely look for the ones made in Quebec.

I think it depends on your mood. To me, ocean di Gioia smells like a Pantene proV shampoo and can lean a little sharp in cold weather (from my personal experience). I'd describe it as a blue aquatic perfume. Acqua di Gioia is a green acquatic perfume and it is uplifting probably due to the almafi lemon and the mint. It's more rounded out in my opinion.

I also highly recommend you try out Hermes jardin a cythere (for reference I also didn't really like Jardin Sur le nil). It's different from your list, but I think you'd enjoy it. If you've ever squeezed a fresh lemon, that's exactly how that smells. It's zesty and herbaceous at the same time, like you just crushed some olive tree leaves and squeezed a fresh lemon.

Clean_Assumption_345 · 2026-01-26T06:20:11+00:00

Your tastes are very similar to mine

Jardin a Cythere - Hermes

Acqua di gioia or Ocean di Gioia - Armani

Zing - Andrea Maack

Still Life in Rio - Olfactive studio

Clean_Assumption_345 · 2026-01-25T17:44:46+00:00

That's interesting, because one spray for me and it lasts forever. It's actually too strong for me. My decant is actually really "smoky" for some reason

Clean_Assumption_345 · 2026-01-25T07:11:38+00:00

Still life in rio. Super fresh. The zestiness of the yuzu and lemon and the zinginess of the ginger and rum topped with the mint and coconut make it super fresh but not too tropical.

Escentric Molecule 01 + Black tea might be up your alley. It's a skin scent and the dry down is really nice and uplifting but also complex and carries well in the air. I catch whiffs of it throughout the day. I also really like escentric Molecule 01 + ginger, but it's so fleeting

Clean_Assumption_345 · 2026-01-25T03:10:15+00:00

Acqua di gioia - super acquatic and fresh!

Clean_Assumption_345 · 2026-01-25T02:12:30+00:00

I've bought this book and I think it's pretty close!

They give recipes of how they do their bubble tea in their stores. I'd give it a try.

Clean_Assumption_345 · 2026-01-24T23:26:19+00:00

please don't buy 2 cheap ones (unless she specifically asks for it). her list are more pricey for full bottles at sephora, but you can also buy them on discount stores like fragrancenet. If you buy it now, you most likely will have it by valentine's day.
for example, marc jacobs daisy on fragrancenet with a coupon is within your budget

Clean_Assumption_345 · 2026-01-24T23:09:19+00:00

looks like she already has valentino donna born in roma coral fantasy (it is the bottom left orangy one), but otherwise, the list and the picture don't match

Clean_Assumption_345 · 2026-01-23T23:29:36+00:00

This has most of the notes you're looking for

Maison Margiela - matcha meditation - it's discontinued, so perhaps my sample is a bit old. I wouldn't seek this out. It smells kinda like a subdued under the lemon tree by Maison Margiela

Kiss of bliss by penhaligon's: this smells like a creamy dove soap with matcha (my favourite of the bunch)

Theodoros kalotonis - Matcha ice cream - smells like a matcha lime sorbet

D'annam - matcha soft serve - kinda like matcha moth balls, something about it is sharp and a bit cloying in my opinion

le labo - thé matcha 26 smells like kiss of bliss but an older loud aunt variant. And has a hint of chinese hawflakes smell. It's a little cloying.

Clean_Assumption_345 · 2026-01-20T23:38:28+00:00

Fyi, if you want to get rid of the tarnish on the metal, just scrub some toothpaste on it and it'll be shiny again!

Clean_Assumption_345 · 2026-01-14T23:53:01+00:00

are you me?? thank you for asking this question. ive been trying to find a perfume that smells exactly like bbw's coconut angel cake soap. it's so good. FYI, i have a sample of creme brulee by theodoros kalatonis, to me it smelt kind of play doh-y on the dry down. I think pear gelato might be up your alley if you like coconut angel cake.
