Desert Lavender

7.5

Saguara · 2016

Fresh · Citrus · Floral

Saguara Desert Lavender is a unisex scent that suits spring and autumn days and relaxed daily wear, with a fresh, green, floral lavender character; it has been discontinued. It is built on vervain, lavender and sandalwood. A fresh, citrusy lift runs alongside a green, floral line, while the sandalwood sweetens it with a creamy, woody softness and the spicy touches stay in the background. The overall feel is fougère. Longevity and sillage are rated good. Most voters pick spring and autumn, and it also carries easily in summer. It leans towards daily wear, leisure and the office, and voters read it as masculine and feminine in nearly equal measure. Rituals The Ritual of Jing - Sleep and Crabtree & Evelyn Sandalwood have a close profile.

Pinyon Pine

7.5

Saguara · 2019

Fresh · Green · Fruity

Saguara Pinyon Pine is a fresh, green unisex scent led by cedar and tree resin. It reads as one continuous accord rather than a progression. Cedar and resinous notes form a woody backbone, while leaves add a green freshness. Fruity notes bring a soft sweetness between them, and the spicy accord keeps the whole from turning too dry. Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays fairly close to the skin. Most voters pick leisure and daily wear, with evening and office use close behind. L'Antichambre Fir Balsam and Pineward Bindebole have a close profile.

Cactus Bloom

6.9

Saguara · 2016

Fresh · Citrus · Floral

Saguara Cactus Bloom is a unisex fragrance that runs fresh and green, with citrus and florals leaning toward sweetness. Voters rate its longevity and sillage as good, though few have voted, so those ratings deserve some caution. Being unisex, it reads as neither masculine nor feminine, with an easy, everyday feel. Lime and melon give the scent its fresh edge. Mimosa and desertpeony add a soft floral layer, while tobacco and saguaro bring a dry, spicy depth. The fruity sweetness is held in check by green tones, so the fragrance stays light rather than heavy. Memo Paris Inlé and Carthusia Capri Forget Me Not have a close profile.

Sagebrush

7.3

Saguara · 2019

Green · Spicy · Woody

Saguara Sagebrush is a unisex scent built around bay leaf, black sage and hemp flower, leaning green and woody. Longevity and sillage are rated moderate, though the number of votes is small, so that picture is tentative. There is no season or occasion data to lean on. The scent as a whole is green and spicy, with blue cypress and Texas cedar forming a woody base and elemi resin adding a resinous, faintly smoky warmth. It comes across as dry and outdoorsy, far from sweet. O'Douds Sandalwood and Coreterno Hierba Nera have a close profile.

Coyote Mint

7.4

Saguara · 2016

Fresh · Floral · Green

Saguara Coyote Mint is a fresh, green unisex scent that suits leisure time and the workday alike; it has been discontinued. It is built from jasmine, herbs, palo santo and vanilla. The fresh, green and floral side comes first, while vanilla sweetens it and adds a creamy softness, and palo santo draws a woody, spicy backdrop. Longevity is good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick it for leisure, business and daytime wear, with fewer votes for evening and night out. Being unisex, it reads equally well on men and women. Marbert Homme and Houbigant Essence Rare (2018) have a close profile.
