Clean enough to wear everywhere, interesting enough that it isn't forgettable. The sillage stays close and intimate, you won't fill a room with it, but you'll notice it on yourself throughout the day.Need-U
This smells like standing on a rocky shore with grapefruit in your pocket. It is simple but committed, never tipping into sunscreen territory. It avoids becoming too sharp.Wood Sage & Sea Salt
