SALA

I came across this perfume in Dec 2024 in London. While in the shop, another person and I sprayed it and discussed the scent and what it reminded us of. I left the store and then went back an hour later to buy as I couldn't get it off my mind and it was such an evocative and nostalgic scent. When I smelled it the first time, I was transported to my childhood and it was Saturday morning and I was waiting for a carpool to a soccer game and the neighbor was cutting their grass and the Texas air was already hot. I work as a florist and although surrounded by scents all day, I can still smell this on me at the end of the day. It also smells so good when I put on my jacket days later and I can smell the spiciness left on my clothes.

Just got this today as a blind buy. The only green scent profile i usually like is a nice tea scent. However, I wanted to broaden my horizons this year and start exploring more green scents. I can’t describe you how good this smells. It smells exactly like the inside of a flower shop: the humid and slightly warm air, flower stems and nectar and a background flower-ish smell, that’s basically the combination of all the flowers in the shop. If I had to pinpoint one, I would assume it’s the orchid as well as the notes say. I think this is a masterpiece and has a unique and nostalgic feeling to it, it feels familiar but on a personal level, nothing alike from what i’ve put my nose on before.

I’m currently ok a no buy for perfume because i own loads and i’m about to move accross the ocean, but i sampled this without much expectation at a store a few moments ago and it was an instant love and purchase. I’ve been seeking a perfume that does a nostalgic, almost honeyed hay that takes me back to being a kid and spending the whole day playing outside in the grass just as spring was ending, and THIS IS IT!!!!! tbc on sillage, projection and lasting power; but in terms of scent holy s*** this was so good i ran to review it here like i haven’t done in a long time

I was testing a few perfumes without looking at packaging when this one stopped me in my tracks. I grew up in a flower shop, and the potent cut stems and grass had an immediate nostalgic effect on me (from the comments it seems I'm not the only one to get hit by this!). I got a travel size bottle on the spot. When I sprayed it in the office I immediately got compliments from multiple colleagues. This is a true spring fragrance, evoking days getting slowly longer, flowers starting to bloom, cutting the grass on the weekend. Easy to like and wear.

Spring/summer fresh scent. Smells like entering the florist shop - it has an instant spicy green opening like flower stems with a distinctive sweet note. The drydown leaves a sweet, musky floral scent and the intensity from the 'green' is reduced. It's a very unique scent and I've never smelled anything similar to this. Reminds me a little bit of POOL from Tsu lange yor which is also a 'green scent', however, doesn't have the same vegetal vibe. While POOL is spicy vegetal, this is spicy flower bouquet
