In the bottle - Gentle, green floral. Not overpowering to my nose, as many BPAL scents are at first.
Wet on skin - I smell like a dewy-wet flower bouquet on a crisp spring morning. I can't pick out individual florals because they blend so well together. I was wary of the rose being the first on the list b/c rose generally reminds me of old lady perfume, but this is the opposite of old lady. Smells so young and fresh. Behind the floral, there's a hint of a green, damp, mossy scent. Not very sweet... it's innocent but not boring.
Drydown - it turns sweeter with time, but amazingly, it doesn't go sugary on my skin. I can smell maybe a hint of the honey, but not too sweet at all. The green notes fade away, and I'm left with warm, floral happiness. It lasts forever too! I'm in heaven.
