Eau de Vert Boheme

I am truly baffled that this officially has no pure green or grassy notes, because that's entirely what I get when I first spray this. As it dries down, it morphs to have a few floral notes but they remain super fresh - like freshly cut flowers or flowers that have been rained on recently. I get only the tiniest bit of citrus - in that I have to close my eyes and concentrate to be able to detect it. Also, I'm not a huge fan of violet leaves, but I honestly get none in this fragrance. I took a huge risk by blind buying this, as I am not at all a Tom Ford stan and I've tried most everything of his. However, this is a real winner for me because the green notes are powerful even a long time after dry down - which IMO is super hard to find. I am completely seduced by really green, grassy scents, so this pushes all my buttons. However, I strongly disagree with the accords - citrus is almost absent in this fragrance according to my nose and I get almost no woods. Also, marine notes? Seriously? I'm super picky about anything sea water related and I just don't get even a tiny bit of that here. I can honestly say I've never encountered a fragrance where the listed notes/accords made less sense based on my experience. However, if you want a super fresh, very green/grassy floral with decent lasting power and projection - this is for you. Whatever you do, don't assume you will experience the notes and accords as listed. You could have the same experience as I did and be in for a surprise.

I’m such a sucker for green fragrances, so when I saw this bright green bottle at Ulta I just had to try it. Oh my, I love this sooo much! Smells very green but like a calming green, very grassy too... almost like cutting fresh juicy grass! Because of how grassy it smells it’s very much either a hit or miss with folks, and I feel like you have to like green fragrances to like this lol. Longevity is pretty good, some people said it was really poor but I find it quite good, lasts longer than Chanel 19 & 19 Poudre eau de parfums... and this is an eau de toilette lol... but I guess compared to the most popular Tom Ford fragrances it does perform lower. Sillage is good, when I sprayed this on me at Ulta and went to my car my family was wondering why i smelt so good (it filled the entire call lol). I would definitely say you should try this! Absolutely love it. EDIT: how in the heck are there no green notes listed?? That’s like 95% of what I smell.... so weird.

I don’t pick up honeysuckle or mandarin. I’m debating between this and Synthetic Jungle. The latter has amazing lasting power of 12+ hours, but the initial spray is super strong and a little much for the first 30 minutes. This is pleasant right from the beginning. It’s so pretty and green! Not as green as Chanel No19, as this one has green florals that are more present, but it’s just as magical as Chanel Cristalle EDT which is discontinued. And I’ve tried a handful of other scents to try and replace it. Issey Miyake A Scent is harsh and is missing the florals. I haven’t tried this Tom Ford original or Tom Ford Fleur de Vert. From what I understand, this is pretty close to those. I think this could be a cold statement in the Winter and a natural choice for the other three seasons. Gah! I must have this. Or Synthetic Jungle :P

Smells like heavy jasmine to me. Feminine leaning and reminds me of older perfumes due to the jasmine smell. No jasmine note listed so I'm guessing violet smells similar? Floral fragrance is what I meant to say I guess. Not a bad scent but not my cup of tea. I think this is suited for mature women (which I'm not) but this was free which is why I own it. Wouldn't mind smelling this on a woman in spring, reminds me a lot of spring/summer on super sunny days with bumblebees flying around, fresh mowed lawn and those cicadas making those buzzing sounds type shit. The green bottle is my favourite though, my favourite colour on a tom ford bottle.

This is a little more light and floral than the OG, with nice magnolia. Bright, a wee bit salty/woody, with a backbone that is just like the original. While the scent itself is different, it does also remind me of Ombre de Hyacinth, at least in the opening. The latter is more green and with prominent galbanum, while this one is more gently floral. There is enough overlap in overall "feel" between the OG Very Boheme and Hyacynth and this new "Eau de" that for MOST PEOPLE it would not make sense to have all three. But this style of perfume is just so appealing to me that I do own all three with no regrets.
