milo Report post Posted January 31, 2013 Skeletal limbs of birch and fir coated in a thick, impenetrable blanket of snow. This is the death of the year personified. This is quite beautiful. I'm getting the lab's snow/slush note, but it's not overly aquatic, or 'clean' smelling. Kind of like Monastery in the Mountains, but no sweet vanilla here, more of a birch syrup. I can't remember quite what The Girl smelled like, but I think they share some characteristics here. This is fresh and clean smelling, and I may try to hunt down some more, it's different, and quite lovely. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thekittenkat Report post Posted January 31, 2013 This is for the 2012 version. In the bottle: Minty woods, with a hint of something sweet, probably the birch. Wet: Much the same as on cold sniff. The dry-down: Lovely winter outdoors scent that doesn't really morph. A bit more dry woods, and less like fresh green fir branches. The snow note is the minty one, and the birch (perhaps the birch bark) adds that touch of wonderful sweetness. Btw, this had more of the fir note on the SO. I love this on both of us.
