Mossy Glen

I had the same reference from the staff at Scentbar who told me it smelled like the inside of a flower shop and I agree with them 100%. My best friend growing up, her mom owned a flower shop and we would go there after school for her to take us home so I vividly remember what that scent smells like and it’s lovely. I told myself I was only going to buy one bottle at Scentbar today because I can easily binge and buy 5 bottles at a time. As a lover of flowers and all things floral this really is a must have if you are a true floral lover. it opens up leading with a musty note, however, the florals are present and you get the aroma behind the green mossy note, and as the Moss fades the floral become round and full however, the green note never fully leave this fragrance. It is very lifelike, photo realistic, floral fragrance with leaves, stems, moss, and all. Priced at $120 for 50 mil it’s not a bad deal for a quality niche perfume, using real perfume oils in this ornately styled bottle.

For the first hour, I’m in a refrigerated, wholesale flower shop. The kind of place that’s not open to the public. The opening reminds me of Ostara by Penhaligon, not in the composition but in how the scent makes me feel. Like others below, it is shocking that the perfumer achieved this feat because looking at the note breakdown, it seems impossible. The dry down gives me a tobacco, wood and incense vibe. Quite the contrast from where she started. Out of all the perfumes I sampled last week at the Scent Bar in Los Angeles, this is the only full bottle I walked away with in my possession. I do think the bottle design and packaging feels slightly out of place—a little too gothic, a little too European—for the juice inside. But Mossy Glen does confidently state, “I’m unique”.

The most realistic flower, stems and all, scent I’ve ever smelled. Lasts about 4-5 hours on me and projects well while it lasts. The price point is very reasonable, and the bottle and packaging Is beautiful. Definitely smell the oak moss in the opening, but it’s very gentle, and this quickly morphs into a dewy green floral. This is the perfect springtime scent, and great for visiting any type of garden or relaxed outdoor event.

Mmmm yummy. Jammy fig leaf, fresh grown and picked tobacco, bamboo and patchouli for freshness, cyclamen is creamy and delicate. This smells like a walk through the pond area of a botanical garden, fresh, real, authentic floral garden sent. Not watery, but welcoming and delightful. Tough to say it’s blind buy worthy but picture a beautiful botanical garden pond scene. If you’re into it, sample and/or buy it! It’s good!

Currently sampling a few fragrances from Villa Erbatium, and Mossy Glen was a love at first sniff. It's floral, green and aquatic. The greenness of freshly cut stems, a hint of sappy bitterness. Like being in a room full of freshly cut flowers The room is cold but there are wafts of sunlight filtering through the trees outside. It feels nostalgic but I dont know why. Gosh - I need a full bottle
