How does it perform?
From 54 community ratings, all out of 10.
Holds up through the day and fades gently toward evening.
Leaves a light trail and stays polite in a crowd.
Sits nicely on a shelf.
The price makes you think, so a small size is a smart start.

What does Mystic Moss smell like?
The top notes of green mandarin orange, clary sage and cardamom open bright with a light spicy edge. Algae and geranium carry the green character through the heart. Vetiver, patchouli, frankincense and oakmoss settle it onto a woody, earthy base.
Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick spring and summer, and leisure, daily wear and business are the most chosen occasions. It leans somewhat masculine in votes, yet reads as unisex. Mancera Vetiver Sensuel and Parfums de Marly Perseus have a close profile.
