Lentisque

This could be ultimate fragrance for those who don't like even smallest hint of sweetness in their fragrances. From the opening to the very end it is all lentisque oily green leaves and dry woods with vetiver, later bit of aromatic and ambery notes arriving after about 2 hours. It is relatively long lasting, but has very soft sillage, and barely reaches modest projection after first 30 min. Which means it takes well overspaying, and I would even say might require at least double amount of what you would normally use for average perfumes. It's definitely daytime Spring-Summer perfume, but could be easily used in Fall. It is absolutely unisex, not overly complicated, but classy and modern. I think most people who voted dislike here rather meant it for low performance of this perfume than the scent itself.

Pistacia Lentiscus is a hardy shrub that grows widely throughout the Mediterranean. It has a very distinct resinous smell and produces a resin known as mastic which is exclusively cultivated on the Greek island of Chios, famous for its mastic production which is known as locally 'Tears of Chios'. Lentisque has a green and woody opening which instantly conjures up the aroma of the lentiscus, rising under the hot Mediterranean sun. Mastic essence and absolute are blended with galbanum which heightens the intense green top notes. Cistus resin and dry woods soften the green accord which evolves into an intimate, animalic musk with hints of ambergris.

If you’re curious about how Creed Green Valley smells but can’t find a sample, Lentisque is an excellent representation. Just like the Creed classic, Lentisque smells fantastic. I might pick up a bottle just to have the essence of Green Valley when the mood requires. Buyer beware: as good as this smells, its longevity is even worse than Creed’s. On an unusually cool day in early June, I get only 20 to 30 minutes out of it. Scent: 10/10 Sillage: 1 foot Longevity: aftershave

Mastic at the front, then quickly develops to a lush cedar (on my skin at least). Quite green and a undertone of vetyver but this is a cedar fragrance for me. If you Atlas Cedre by Atelier or 777 Black Gemstone, you will like this. A very summer-sun scent. Wish the mastic (and the scent itself) lasted longer though. Love it.

Beautiful, grassy/meadows smelling spring summer slightly masculine leaning scent!!! Green Valley comparison is real nut they are not 100% same, I like this one a lot. I wish it performed a little better but for a summer scent it's probably perfect!!!
