GIT (깃)

I ordered the Elorea Sample Set, and I'm glad that I did. My initial impression certainly changed, and that is why discovery sets are a good idea. This one is a really neat, green floral that reminds me of Easter Lilies and spring. I do not detect any Lychee note, per se, but I do detect a slightly sweet oriental note, so this must be the Lychee. It is not a fruity scent. Unlike Elorea Hazy Blue (which imo is a blatant attempt at copying Issey Miyake L'eau D'issey), this one is truly an original. Out of the Elorea collection, this is one with nice longevity, and silage. I thought I'd originally order Hazy Blue in a full sized bottle, but GIT ended up being my preferred fragrance between the two--it surprised me, because before testing it, I was leaning in the other direction for choosing a spring/summer floral fragrance.

A very modern fruity floral. This is Elorea's take on the lychee-rose trend. Most impressively, the lychee remains constant. It projects well for the first 4 hours, then it becomes a skin scent that lasts up to 10 hours on me. It is not linear. At first, the lotus is the strongest element. It is difficult as lotus can be, adding a wash of watery floral but also a challenging dustiness. Fortunately, the dustiness dissipates by the second hour. For the rest of its wear, the peony is the star. It is plush, pink, and aquatic. The lychee is not overly tart or sour. It leans juicy. The rose and musk are inseparable. The musk is quiet. Git is smooth with no scratchiness. It is fruity in a natural way, not syrupy or sweet. Git is pleasant and beautiful although not unique. It shares a likeliness with Chloe, Delina La Rosee, the l'Eau d'Issey Nectar line. However, I can detect more delicate nuances in Git than these others. I appreciate how balanced Elorea's scents are. The style fits in with Water, Heaven, and Inflorescence. Git perfectly matches the clean lines of the hanbok. The smell evokes shiny fuschia, purple, and soft pink silk. My only regret is that I tested this when autumn had just begun, and now I must wait long to test it in spring/summer when I know it will shine.

I will say up front that this is not a scent I would wear; however, it's nice and develops really interestingly. It starts off quite fruity-floral (honestly it made me think of a classier version of Malibu Musk from the 1980s-1990s initially), which mellowed out after about fifteen minutes into an expensive dryer sheet smell, but then progressed into a really nicely done unisex white floral--and I say this as someone who doesn't like white florals. I'm impressed with how they managed to keep the florals very realistic without the kind of powdery sweetness that often seems to accompany them, and it's the freshness and lack of any cloying notes that makes this really unisex. It dried down into a subtle, deeper--but not darker--floral scent. I will say it doesn't project much, and it was almost undetectable on me after about three hours, so if you're looking for something that will turn heads as you walk by, this isn't it (unless you really bathe yourself in it). Nonetheless, this is a pretty, subtle scent that's very spring appropriate.

smells super fresh and clean, like floral dryer sheets. not usually a fan of lychee but it's blended well here. not my usual style of fragrance, but this works really well on my skin. there's a bright juiciness to it that i like with a smidge of greenness, but it still stays laundry like which is what i prefer for clean scents without aldehydes. the iris note really ties this together and the sillage isn't great, but this lasts quite a long time.

She's the pretty K Drama lead. She is rosy, youthful and fragrant. This a well blended scent honestly Elorea is one of those houses that is incredible with scent composition. This scent is a floral bouquet with gently scented flowers, lightly ripened lychee, and a very soft musk. She is classic yet still fresh. Personally this scent isn't really my style, but if you are looking for a safe for work, youthful floral this is good.
