Boum Green Tea Cherry Blossom

I initially got a miniature of this to see if it would float my boat after seeing the les belles de ricci comparisons and I totally get it. It’s different but also has a similar vibe somehow. It's certainly in the same family in terms of finding a fresh scent that embraces sweet and juicy fruits without adding vanilla (which I hate but always seems to be chucked in with berries in perfumes!). I think the heart of liberty fizz must be the green note with a sweet and sharp berry. Boum Green Tea Cherry Blossom is really lovely and has a sweet and juicy, fruity green vibe with delicate florals underneath. On the dry down it loses its acidity a bit but something so yummy remains!. It really is embraces the cherry blossom but in a slightly sweet way (as in sweet berries.... think jolly ranchers or jelly babies rather than cotton candy or vanilla) with the gentle green tea freshness in the background. It genuinely smells like springtime to me! It is amazing all year round but seems to last longer in colder weather surprisingly. This was my signature for a while and whenever I wear it I want to keep wearing it for days on end! FYI, I think this smells very similar to green tea pomegranate from Elizabeth Arden, but that one is much more shampooey and retains a fizzy sharpness that Boum lacks. Sadly it’s hard to find this Boum flanker in the UK though so GT pomegranate might be a safe alternative!

Bought this for around 7 dollars. I would say it’s worth the money. NOTES: This fragrance lives atleast half up to its name. It’s most definitely upon first spraying, a very yummy sweet green and lemon tea scent. After some time the sweetness disappears but you’re still left with green tea and sweet lemons. This is not a sour or sharp smelling fragrance at all like your other typical citrus scents might be. Cherry blossom though? Cherries in general? No. In my opinion I can’t detect those notes at all. If anything else I would say pear and black currant are the other notable notes here. Rose? Not that either. LONGEVITY: for the price, the longevity is surprisingly okay, lasting moderate, with only one spray for around 5 hours. You might want to spray this 2-3 times or add more during the day. Silage is between intimate and moderate. OTHER: I like this fragrance it reminds me of this other discontenued green tea scent I had as a young teenager. This is a nice unique scent to add to your collection. It’s not synthetic or offensive. It’s a pretty yummy scent with some unique qualities to it. The bottle designs for all the boum fragrances IMO are kind of ugly and I dislike that there is no real cap. Other than that they are very affordable and suit all ages. I would rate this a 8/10. I would buy it again.

As the others said, this is a fresh, happy, absolutely inoffensive scent, a perfect candidate for summer or late spring fragrance. To me it sits in the middle between Elizabeth Arden Green Tea and Cassandra Rose Intense by Jeanne Arthes as well. What makes it a bridge between these scents is a fruity note. Cassandra Rose Intense has this addition of edible, fresh rose. Green Tea has a very similar vibe, in spite of the fact the notes are not the same. The longevity/projection is similar too.

I was influenced to buy this recently and I am so happy I bought it. It is absolutely lovely! I have EA Green Tea and I find that nice but almost non-existent. I am bowled over that this Jeanne Arthes cheapie lasts and lasts much more than the EA Green Tea. Makes me very curious to see what the other Boums are like? I will definitely be using this liberally for the rest of the summer.

Very nice and refreshing! Try mixing this and Boum Do Brasil (or Sol de Janeiro Cheirosa 62, or Minya by Paris Corner) and you'll get a very unique nutty fresh scent.
