Shades

Love, love, LOVE this fragrance. Very crisp, refreshing, and somewhat mysterious. I always get complimented when I wear it.

I love the greenness of Shades. Sissi's review is so perfectly accurate(and gorgeously written). That review IS Shades.

My Long lost childhood is here! this brings back memories for me, With one sniff your transported to a placid Rainforst with the opening of citruses and sharp bergamot coinciding with green basil leads off an earthy scent, as you walk into the forest the semi sweet scent of Green Tea and the brightness of mint carresses you, when you look into beautifully colored flacon you dive into the endless sea of cool colors of the barrier reef and as dive farther in to the clear ocean you see beautiful floral and ocean life as you emerge to the surface you swim around the lily pads and watery freesia intoxicating to your senses. Finishes with the drydown of Grounded Orris and drywoods, Shades is the New Age of fragrances it brings you to an new awarness to nature and for youself.

I loved this in 6th grade. Funny story, my best friend at that time gave this to me because she would sneeze uncontrollably with just one spray. I thought it smelled pretty but I haven't smelled it since then so I might think differently as an adult. I can still picture it. It kind of had an aquatic, green floral vibe going on, similar to CK one. The bottle was cute, too.

This doesn't work for me. Something in the mint and tea notes I think - I get a very synthetic almost plastic smell that never goes away. I had to scrub it off, it was giving me a headache. Pretty bottle though,
