    Hmm, this was a much more complex scent than I expected, particularly from the descriptions. I got it because I wanted a mint, but so far I've gotten no more than a faint undertone (and most of hte time I can't even smell that.) I don't think I've ever had a scent change so many times on me. Wet, it's a very aquatic, light green scent; NOT mint; someone here mentioned honeydew, and that's not quite right to me but closer than anything else I can think of. As it dries what I guess is the moss came out. It went into a dusty moss with some cooler greens phase, and then for a little while was exactly the scent of hay bales, wet and drying in the sun. I like that kind of scent a lot, so no problems there. Sharpened up again and for a bit I got detergent or fabric softener. Then for a while I got cool wet blue-green again, like sniffing a bed of lush moss or leaves just after someone let an ice cube melt on it. Here if I looked for it I could get just a hint of mint, but it certainly wasn't waving its hands around at me. Now it's settled down into something oddly earthy - from the description on this page: http://www.profumo.it/perfume/natural_perf..._ambergris.html I think it must be the ambergris. Very interesting. I haven't decided if I like it overall yet; it definitely had some interesting moments. If I needed a scent for horseback riding or hiking, this might well be it.
