Series 8: Energy C - Lime

6.5

Comme des Garçons · 2008

Fresh · Citrus · Floral

Comme des Garçons Series 8: Energy C - Lime is a fresh, unisex citrus scent that leans towards daily and leisure wear; it has been discontinued. Lime, green lemon and bergamot set the first impression, and the scent stays fresh, citrusy and green. Tea rose, water jasmine and lily of the valley soften that sharpness with a floral touch, while cedar and musk sit quietly behind, adding a light woody, earthy base. Voters pick it most for daily wear, leisure and sport, and less often for the office. Its longevity is rated moderate and its sillage weak, so it stays close to the skin.

Lava Rose

6.7

Strangers Parfumerie · 2019

Floral · Fruity · Sweet

Strangers Parfumerie Lava Rose pairs rose with plastic, tar, soil and mineral notes in a unisex scent; it has been discontinued. Its longevity and sillage are both rated good, though with few votes, so these ratings are only a rough guide. The scent is not tied to one gender and sits equally well on men and women. Rose is told here from several angles rather than through one note: rose otto, tea rose, May rose and rose leaf absolute. Against them stand tar, soil and plastic, and the accords add a smoky, earthy, leathery and synthetic streak to the floral and sweet side. Lychee brings a soft fruitiness and elemi resin a resinous depth. Amouage Basmah and Nabeel Desert Leather have a close profile.

Its longevity and sillage are rated good, though only a few votes stand behind that. It is positioned as a feminine fragrance. Rancé 1795 François Charles and La Fede Intoxicate Mystique have a close profile.

Shiseido · 1986

Fresh · Floral · Fruity

Eau de Parfum
