It begins with a non-pungent lemon and a slightly powdery sensation, a floral that could be violet leaves, with soft nutmeg. After five hours, I only notice a very soft cedar and the fragrance clinging to the skin. Perhaps a hint of pine around, but too soft for me. At ten hours, it’s faintly detected with cedar and oakmoss. I used the entire sample, 1.2ml, and got a moderate trail lasting about three or four hours before fading quickly. Its longevity was over ten hours, but very skin-deep. I couldn’t clearly appreciate the pine notes (unlike, for example, Wild Pine) nor the cypress. Too shy in that regard and without much charm, unless you’re looking for something very innocuous, perhaps for work where intrusive fragrances are prohibited. It seems better suited for spring or summer, during the day, as it lacks the complexity for evening events. In me, it didn’t provoke the emotion of being in an Alpine forest. Of what I’ve tried from this brand, I still prefer the classic Swiss Army, as it has more personality than this one.

Quite woody and green fragrance, it reminds me a lot of the high forests of my province! It’s beautiful. The opening is very good, in the transition to the heart the woodiness becomes noticeable, and in the dry down it’s even more intense. Then it becomes very pleasant, conveying serenity and freshness, making you feel at the very top of the world. This EDT is very good, I recommend it, it’s a fragrance for personal enjoyment.

A fairly woody and green scent, reminding me strongly of the high forests in my province! It’s beautiful. The opening is excellent, the heart reveals the wood, and the dry-down becomes even more intense. It then turns very pleasant, conveying serenity and freshness, making you feel at the top of the world. This EDT is very good; I recommend it as a personal treat fragrance.

Have you ever walked through a pine and cypress forest, with moss and a babbling brook? Can you smell that? That is this fragrance. I haven’t received many compliments, but it has good longevity and makes you feel fresh, as if you’re in the woods.
