Ghost Flowers

ataraxiuh's description of white roses bought at the airport is perfect. In specific, the long stemmed white roses came from that rotating flower vending machine at the Vegas airport. Ghost Flowers perfectly embodies the bleakness of white florals. Melancholic. There are whispers of something more tangy, salty, sharp in the background, but it cannot make its way through the dense fog. Comforting - some dryer sheet. Morning dew drops falling from the soft petals of flowers that reside on a chilly, rocky coast. This scent feels like you put on someone else's sweater.

I was initially attracted to this scent’s notes and got a sample. Ignored it for a while because I didn’t love it on first wear. I just revisited it today and on first smell, I really started picking up the milky, lactonic nature of this scent. I imagine the scents of a spring cottage full of green magic and a milky pudding on the stove, surrounded by concoctions of decomposing florals stewing on the hearth. Very magical scent. like visiting a tombstone to clear away old flowers and replace with new ones. Will be reaching for this one more often!

Great scent. Cold, icy, like you’re in an empty church decorated purely in white.

taking a walk through a shadowy forest while your bare feet press into the moss and lichen...your flower crown has started to decay and you’re aching for chamomile milk tea to soothe the ache building in your chest. pallid, lonely, grim

Probably the most photorealistic flower I’ve ever smelled in a fragrance. It’s like you stuffed your face in a bouquet, it gives off a very green, cold sweetly sour flower stem smell. Paired with maybe a little waft of sunblock and fresh laundry? Less ominous and ghostly like I was hoping. But it was fun to smell regardless.
