Notes of Pinot Grigio Reserve

Ok. This will definitely be my summer scent. It's fresh and crisp without being the same old same old orange/lemon, acquatic, ozonic concontion designer brands punctually unleash on us every summer. This is original, different. I get the star fruit and the yuzu at first. Later, the green apple and the floral notes surface. This dries down to a clean, somewhat soapy smell. Right now, where I live, we're buried under tons of snow and the temperature is in the low 20s, so this scent is very uplifting and exhilarating. I just wish it lasted longer.

First 10 minutes features an all consuming grapefruit note, but it mellows quickly and becomes yuzu dominant. Interestingly I can pull out the seldom used star fruit note in the drydown. It doesn’t make me think of Pinot Grigio, if we are thinking wine it’s more Sauvignon Blanc. So the sales copy in the descriptor above is off— and super corny. I would classify Notes of Pinot Grigio as 60% synthetic / 40% natural. Not a deal breaker and I still like it but the base is missing some depth, and that is the deal breaker for me.
