Green, wet and mineral opening. It tingles slightly on the nose, like scratching a match; I’m not sure if it’s spicy or igneous, but it doesn’t smell of pepper, it just evokes it. Reminds me more of plant sap or ivy dampened by dew. Good projection in summer and lasts around 8 hours. Unisex, ideal for spring-summer in informal moments. Super original, requires a certain eclecticism as it smells like nothing known. I’d love to wear it, but I can’t bring myself to. Pleasant: 8/10, Interesting: 10/10, Versatile: 6/10, Original: 10/10.
A fragrance with a natural scent. I don’t detect the gunpowder note the sales assistants mention. It’s fairly linear: green ivy stems with a certain creaminess and a young, fresh, wet vetiver. Totally unisex, though the performance is weak; little fixative power and trail, but it intensifies in the heat. Suits men with an informal style and women in daytime wear or summer dresses. I see it as a daytime scent, for personal enjoyment or for fans of this slightly snobbish house where a note always stands out. On my skin, it’s the vetiver. Smells like spring nature and forest breezes. Perfect for eco-warriors or park lovers. In women, it has a sophisticated touch and works for work without drawing too much attention. Green and simple, easy to wear.
Comme des Garçons never ceases to surprise me. Amazing Green is spectacular. I love it for three things: the scent, which reminds me of the 90s; the order of the notes; and because it’s deceptive. At first it seems fresh and aquatic, and yes, it is, but then the green notes gain a smoky nuance. It could be spring or summer due to its restrained intensity. It’s a fresh verdancy, like freshly watered plants, without an earthy smell, just stems and leaves. The best part is that this wet greenness holds with the smoky gunpowder until the end without overshadowing the green notes. Hence the name: Amazingly Green. The performance is adequate, though I’d make it with monstrous projection. Still, I’m fascinated by it.
A cool, clean skin scent… No trail, even when over-applying. Lasts about two hours. I don’t think it’s worth it for the price.
They gave me a small bottle and honestly, the first impression was poor: low trail and not very original scent. But it has notable longevity and the dry-down of the green notes and vetiver is very pleasant. Perhaps it bores for everyday wear, but it’s a dynamic scent that can go very well on occasion.
