Bathhouse Mishap

White tea, golden pear, Himalayan cedar, and eucalyptus blossom.

I absolutely love this. In the bottle, this is all juicy, almost bubblegum-y pear, but it changes pretty quickly on the skin. The pear is definitely still present, but I'm finding the white tea to be the dominant note, and the floral notes of both that and the eucalyptus blossom give the vibe of that bath product that you adore but is prohibitively expensive, so you ration it only for the most special of occasions. Perfect for a "bathhouse" perfume. My only complaint is that I don't get much cedar, which is a shame, as it's one of my favorite notes, but I suspect it's hanging around with the white tea, lending a sort of "dryness" to the scent.

I know there's no apple in this, but wet, I'm getting green apple, nice shampoo vibes. On drydown, I can picture a bright room with suds and fluffy towels. This one is a pretty, very light scent.

The pear and white tea create a watery, fresh, spa-like atmosphere. The cedar adds a dry, aromatic backbone, as if you've just exited a cedar sauna and the scent is still barely lingering. The eucalyptus blossom is a delicate floral with a just a hint of something camphoric. To me, this one is mostly about the pear. As an avid pear 'fume hunter, this one is unique in my collection. It's not trying to be too sweet or too soapy. It sits somewhere in the middle. Crisp, clean, humid, relaxing. Just lovely.
