Desertland

This reminds me of my garden and the surrounding desert. It's a very realistic desert land scent. I don't really need a bottle because I can smell this by stepping outside. But if you're looking for a fragrance that smells like you have a house in the desert with a lot of rosemary and lavender bushes, like mine, this does the job.

Picked up the lavender right out of the gate, then juniper (which I thought was pepper until I read the notes). I very much get the cedar too, which is a lovely touch. Very sensual and almost masculine, but at the same time sweet and can be easily pulled off by a sexy femme fatale. My favorite out of the 3 Oribe fragrances.

Idk, this smells pretty good to me. I get a nice relaxing sandalwood right away. Reminds me of a woody or papery scent that Comme des Garcons would release, just with not as good performance. I think this is definitely something that only works on skin, though. My coworker liked it as well.

I love the top notes. The dry down is mediocre. Very good longevity. Moderate to intimate projection. It’s very woody, somewhat green, with a good bit of floral, which lands this perfume in the true unisex territory. I would even say it’s slightly more masculine, but not like you want go out and slaughter a bear kind of masc. The heart notes give off the olfactory equivalent of numbing pepper, which is super interesting. The dry down is just the ghost of what you have a couple hours before, so a little disappointing. Very unique but it’s still imo has some similarity to estee lauder’s modern muse.

This is an interesting fragrance! It's fresh, and pretty juniper. Nothing super woody, green or astringent. It was quite tame, but it has a dry, almost dusty quality. Yes, like the desert. So, well done Oribe! It smells accurately desert-y. I don't get realistic lavender in here (I rarely do, lavender is almost always different smelling in fragrance than it is IRL). But...there is a green, herbaceous undertone here. And again, it's dry, owing probably to the sandalwood and juniper. This is oddly pleasant, utterly unisex, evocative and deserving of it's title, but wearable and soft.
