Dark, mossy/green poisonous florals

Recommended Posts

Hello!

 

I'm looking for a dark floral with a green note to it, either mossy or some sort of damp greenery, something to brings to mind poisonous plants. I've scoured Rappaccini's Garden and haven't found my dream floral.

 

Could have an addition of berries/plum or some dark fruit as well.

 

Do your worst!

Just considering GC scents for now, one that comes to mind is Bayou [Wanderlust]: A lazy, warm deep green scent with a thick aquatic undertone: Spanish moss, evergreen and cypress with watery blue-green notes and an eddy of hothouse flowers and swamp blooms.

 

If you are able to find the sort of floral you want and the sort of green you want separately, you might also be able to achieve it with some layering.

Witches' Lace, maybe?  If you can find it?  Moss-green sugar spun lace dusted with mandrake root and sweet aged patchouli, dusty cedar and crushed toadstools with a cauldron splash of nightshade accord, tobacco flower, green cognac and woodsmoke... plus a pinch of ethically- harvested, naturally sourced vegan eye of newt and toe of frog

 

Or Witch's Lace?  Deep, spicy chestnut bundles of tobacco leaf, sleek red benzoin, smoked amber, tatters of green cognac, opium tar smears, withered mephitic petals, and globs of thick, sweet aged patchoul

In the GC, Robin Goodfellow and Yorick smell very natural and earthy and dusty green. You might also try Druid (which has a berryish sweetness to it) Ranger, and Orc (which is more foresty and leather, and I'll 2nd Bayou if you are okay with it being heavier on the floral and very wet/lush smelling.  I personally love Solanine, the Flower Girl, which sprang right to mind from your description. It's very lush, green, peppery, and a bit floral, but it's so complex it's hard to identify anything specifically.  Woman at the Edge of the Woods could also be a good one, (I'd describe it as a dryad's hug. It's smells more like the woods than GREEN, per se, but it's got a background berry/floral vibe that might be what you're looking for.  Lastly, Silenti has somber, elegant vibes, like lilacs blooming in an old cemetery with moss and crumbling headstones. All of these are available year-round. Happy hunting!

 

Urk!  Adding one more.  Alien/Siren is a little left of what you're asking for but might be worth a try if you're down for an aquatic.  It's definitely sinister, damp and green in a non-planty way.  It's unusual and really nice.

I loooooooooooove green scents so much! 💚 Unfortunately most of the ones I especially like are either discontinued or some sort of limited edition. 

 

Envy is one of my favourites that is still around.

 

Also, check out my top 10 (top 30) list linked in my signature for other recommendations. Not all of them are green scents, but quite a few are.
