Secret Bamboo

To my nose, this is a unique freshy . I love it. It has a feel that reminds me of the fig in un jardin en Méditerranée by Hermes. Not the same smell at all, but there is a coconut-like feel that fig sometimes has. There’s no fig in this so maybe this is what the mix of apple and heliotrope smells to me. I see this compared to a bathroom freshener. I guess I go to different bathrooms. I would get a full bottle but it’s a tad pricey for what it is.

First spray is beautiful, bright, green apple followed almost immediately by a soapy smell. This is fresh and clean without aldehydes or citrus. This is a toasty spring or hot summer day in shorts and a loose fit top. It smells laid back and fun.

It gives me out of the shower vibes (shower gell) but it’s not strong , yall need to drop the prices tho...

Very fresh and clean smelling, very approachable. Has clean laundry and hand soap vibes that softens and becomes more complex on the skin after a few minutes. I like it more the longer I wear it. (I'm not comparing or referring to the Clean line of fragrances.) Storie Veneziane is a quality company, their line is sold at high end retailers in the US.

As a guy, I find this scent perfect for hot weather, but unfortunately I can’t wear it on its own. I usually layer it with other designer fragrances, and it does a great job of enhancing and bringing those scents out even more. It definitely stands out in the clean, fresh category, but being an EDT, the longevity leaves a bit to be desired. If it lasted longer, I’d rate it much higher. As it stands, it’s a 7/10 slaps.
