What does Dirty (Perfume) smell like?

Green, herbal notes lead: tarragon and spearmint bring coolness, while thyme and lavender add a spicy edge. Oakmoss and sandalwood ground it in an earthy, woody base. The aquatic and fresh accords keep it light, with no sweetness or powdery softness.

Most voters pick spring and summer, and leisure, daily wear and the office are the occasions that come up most. Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters read it as masculine, though a fair share find it feminine. Issey Miyake L'Eau Bleue d'Issey pour Homme and Aēsop Karst have a close profile.
