Feuilles de Verveine

the store was on sale, and this 100ml bottle was half priced. so i took the bait. cost around US$14.00, not that costly. scent's longevity is very very good. long lasting. citrusy indeed, lemony. with a hint of vetiver all along. it has a slight similarity yet different from Yves rocher's men's EDT Cedar/Lime. But this Verveine is truly unisex scent. I'm a man and i wont hesitate using this, and i wont be surprised to smell this on a woman either. Nice product.

Opens with a glorious blast of lemon verbena, so fresh, and vital. This fades all too soon for me, because I love lemon, and becomes a faint powdery citrus. I wish it lasted longer. This is certainly light, refreshing, ideal for hot summer days, and is certainly unisex.

A very mediocre fragrance, it's weak and disappears quickly. It feels very mild and doesn't give much to expect. It just feels like a lemon candy that an old lady would give you. If it would last longer and have more notes than just the citrus, then it might be a good summer fragrance. It could work out quite well as a beginner fragrance.

The opening smells like what every verbena fragrabces have in common; a lemon flavored hard candy or lemon flavored lozenges smell, only this one dries down similar to D&G Light blue.

For me this literally smells like a strong lemon candy, very simple scent with not that much background. but would definitely recommend for a beginner summer scent.
