Summer’s last blooms encased in frost: chilled dahlias, marigolds, wild roses and ranunculus strewn across icy grasses.

Brisk and herbal. Smells a bit like dry hay, snow, and light florals (but none of the flowers in the notes).

I love this one. It reminds me of a scent that I used to love--maybe Snow Moon 2005? The florals are super pretty and smell like wildflowers (a little grassy/springy/breezy). The frost is one of my favorite cold/snowy notes from the Lab--it's clean and fresh with a hint of mint. Overall this is a really lovely fresh, clean, floral scent. I've been wearing it to work pretty constantly lately.

I really like this. Ellocentipede's description of the ice note is perfect: clean, fresh, slightly minty, I would add in a fresh way and not like toothpaste at all. There's a nice sweet hay like grassy note underneath, plus some florals sniffing blind I would never be able to tell you what they were. I don't get an overtly pollenous or dusty herbal vibe from the marigolds or dahlias. No stompy rose, and I don't know what ranunculus is (is that a dinosaur? :lol:). I kind of just get a whiff of wildflowers on the breeze.

 

It's not overtly cold. More like a sweet wildflower bouquet with a touch of wild mint throughout. I get Sense and Sensibility, "these are not from the hothouse" vibes.

 

Very lovely!
