Fresh As

Pine scents sometimes tend to give toilet cleaner vibes but Fresh As is not that. It‘s very beautifully blended and soft, it‘s a piece of art. A green pine scent that wakes up memories of decorating christmas trees and smells like a very refreshing and breezy walk in misty woods in the morning after it‘s rained. Not a typical damp, heavy and smoky Lush woods scent, Fresh As has some citrusy orange and green apple top notes that really make it Fresh (and clean) As Fuck. The drydown is more woodsy and actually very sexy. A natural scent that makes you think you‘re in the garden in the morning. Even though others have mentioned Fresh As is not very good in terms of performance and sillage, I have to disagree. It is very strong at first and lasts 6-7 hours on my skin. It is definitely unisex and the dry down smells a little bit more masculine. I love this one. Well done.

I had a solid perfume of this and when I saw a full sized bottle on sale, I had to get it. Most lush isn’t worth buying unless it’s on sale. Especially their fragrances. If you like karma or diptyque’s philosykos, you’ll probably like this one. They both have that same sort of water and freshness smell. Fresh as reminds me of walking through the PNW forest near a lake or river in the summer time. I get a little bit of citrus in this one, which is on par for lush, but it’s not overpowering or prominent. I also feel it might have some fig scent in it. It’s great. I think it’s straight up unisex. It non offensive. Probably safe for a blind buy if it on sale. Definitely overpriced if it’s full priced. Glad I bought it, overall.

Pine - without the woodiness - on a bed of meadow florals and lime. There's an underlying sweetness that comes across as fresh and pretty. I can detect the vegetal ghost of orris root, and I wish it was more prominent in the mix. This is a spring/summer scent, but I also enjoy layering it with Serge Luten Five O'Clock Au Gingembre in the fall and wintertime. This is definitely EA Green Tea's elegant, more natural-smelling cousin. Similarly, it wears as a skin scent, but lasts just a touch longer. I love this so much that I bought 4 backup bottles. Notes according to my nose (in order of prominence): sweet meadow florals, citrus, pine, the vegetal ghost of orris root

Pine! Pine! Pine! Feels like taking a walk in a coniferous forest, crushing some white pine needles between the fingers of one hand while eating a juicy fruit with the other. Not quite a green apple, not quite an orange, but something unmistakably high in vitamin c. Time brings out sun warmed pine sap, soft & amber; then paper thin wood shavings you can almost see through. Fresh as is truly a fresh & likeable scent while still being unique. Even if you don't like it for yourself, you won't mind smelling it. Never too heavy, always fun & effervescent. No one will ever ask you to roll down a window when you're wearing this in the car. Unless they have asthma

Its a beautiful day so you decide to pack a tent, something to eat, a bottle of wine and you drive up for a hike in the forest. After a day full of adventures, you put up a tent in a thick forest. There are pine needles and pinecones all around you. You wake up the next day, morning dew is still on pine needles and moss. It's still warm because it was sunny and hot yesterday. You unzip your tent and take a first breath of fresh air - that's what this perfume smells like.

An absolute surprise. The scent is so good, fresh pine but sweet, like a hint of mint, a wonderful combination of sweet and fresh, and the marigold rounds off the composition perfectly. It's amazing how calming it is. I can't stop wearing Fresh As.

I don’t know how but on me this dries down to a beautiful floral baby powder scent! More sour than sweet but gorgeous.

Gorgeous crips and so beautifuly fresh I love wearing fresh as

Pine is a tricky note, so evocative in its natural form but tainted by associations with cleaning products and holiday-themed fresheners. Those associations will inevitably ruin this fragrance for some, but I think it's successfully done. Fresh As is, unsurprising, a fresh blast of pine, but it's elevated by a smart use of florals - pungent tagetes and, crucially, a really gorgeous orris note. I have a weakness for orris, and while not the star here, it plays an important role in softening and refining the fragrance. I don't detect much benzoin, but it may be working in tandem with the orris to sweeten the composition. Fresh As is less Chrismassy than it might be given the heavy coniferous notes; combined with the florals, it gives me the impression of an open lawn with topiary and thoughtfully arranged flowers. It's all a bit rigid and linear, but fresh and pleasing in its modest way. I can imagine some people feeling that it would make a better candle scent, though.

Right off the bottle cap this perfume smells really fresh green and citrusy with a sweet hint of wood and sap. On my skin the pine notes get more prominent, and it smells like I am standing so close to the tree trunk that I become it. I am the pine in the middle of the forest, mid-july and I am sweating tar, and shedding off my driest pine needles. The opening is somewhat masculine, like one of those soaps marketed towards men with 50 uses in only one soap. Or like walking past a locker room where you know there will be a mixture of several soaps, and colognes. At the same time, it is a very nature smell, so I cannot label it with a gender, it is as stated ‘Fresh as...’. Though, for me it is too fougere, and I could not wear it, but it has a good longevity and a decent sillage so if you’re into sweeter fougeres I would absolutely recommend a sample.

The un-nameable thing that it smells like, in my opinion, is book pages. Smells like pine+ newly printed book pages. Although stuff that comes right out of the printer to me always smelled like cucumber. This fragrance makes me think of that too. It’s crisp and inky, and i like it but it took its time to grow on me. Imagery : A fresh cold shower in a mountain cabin. You put your clothes to dry outside and they froze. Edit: I actually quickly got sick of it, couldn't smell it anymore right now without cringing. It's trying to be tomboy and 'peculiar' and I am not here for it; I guess the whole Lush store made it smell better than it actually was, because I bought it and now hate it :((

I think sarakp999 sums up my impression of this quite well. It's sort of an abstraction of fresh, lush green forest that smells wet, fresh, yet somehow sort of warm at the same time. I have the solid, but my gateway was a bath bomb with this scent, and then the limited-edition shower gel. I was in a fancy Scandinavian home goods store and they have a line of scents for home and personal use. One of them that I sprayed on me smelled extremely similar to Fresh As. But more expensive, though it didn't smell more expensive. I think this perfume will be good in winter as a fresh blast pick-me-up.

I have the stick version, so it may be slightly different, but it smells like something green but un-nameable. Something close to trees, close to citrus, but just off. Incredibly pleasant but sort of an acquired taste. Bought it after asking the saleswoman if she had anything that smelled like rain, and there is just a slight note of petrichor; it's very earthy. Like early afternoon by a river.

I just blind purchased this fragrance hoping for a pine needle xmas tree type scent for xmas. This smells nothing like that despite the fragrance notes. Its more of a citrus fresh green plant scent, not getting any wood or pine. Great for spring time and I do like the fragrance. I wish they sold Pineward Perfumes in the UK.

I have the solid but have smelled the liquid version many times. What I mainly get from it is jelly beans, specifically the ones you'd get at a pick n mix - I like this for the nostalgia, but might not be for everyone! Definitely not "fresh" as they market it, I don't get much grassiness or pine, but nice nonetheless.

i mean yeah..... its fresh as. to me it smells quite androgynous which is nice cos i only really have feminine perfumes, its nice to branch out! doesnt last long at all on skin but has staying power on clothes even if the sillage isnt too strong. really nice for hot weather, sublte fresh clean smell!

Has the vibe of the vintage alpine Dirndl dress (forestgreen with daisies) that I thrifted. The opening does smell like pine essential oil and the dry down is very laundry detergent-like. It also reminds me of a greenish Ikea candle. Feels like it would be nice and clean for spring.

This literally smells like the color green. Takes me back to my childhood and sleeping in a camper by the lake and the woods. Its VERY fresh, borderline sweet, Im getting like a crisp apple note.

I have the solid version and I agree with previous reviews - I would not describe this as 'fresh'. It reads more soapy and a little bit sweet on my skin, but I kinda enjoy it.

I bought this as a graduation present to myself years ago. Baby's first 100ml! Smells absolutely lovely inside of the bottle. A light semi-floral pine with some unidentifiable brightness. What's not to love? I enjoy how well it plays with fabric, but that marigold just kills me. It reminds me a bit of pungent invasive wildflowers by the side of the highway when sprayed on skin. Bright and definitely forest, but sour and powdery in a way that feels slightly off to me. Still, I spritz this on the inside of my coat before a walk in the woods sometimes. Good for spring when the weather hasn't warmed up quite yet.
