Lemon Verbena (Verveine)

It was gifted to my parents but they didn't like it so they gave it to me. Very fresh scented water, this used to be my gym/after shower/study/sleep scent. I used it every time I wasn't in the mood for any complexe perfume, mostly used it while studying since it's really uplifting. Doesn't last long, around an hour max but people can smell it from a few seats away. Overall, wouldn't purchase it again since it's overpriced for me but I'd be super happy if I got it as a gift again.

Like almost all perfumes with lemon verbena, this one disappears real quick, leaving a regular musky smell in its place. Which is a darn shame, since I loved the opening so much. I suppose for the price I can’t complain much, it is an eau fraiche after all. The scent itself is straight verveine, fresh and fizzy and instantly wakes you up. As it is, I use it for quick refreshes during hot days. Works quite well whenever I want something less spicy than EA Green Tea line.

The whole (old) Eaux fraiche collection is discontinued (The Vert, Verveine, Muguet, Cerisier, Rose, Chevrefeuille).

I really liked it when I sprayed it on my arm, but when I finally bought it I was disappointed. It has no sillage, and I have to use a ton of it to get any scent (and I am a two-sprays-max girl with almost all perfumes). If you think of it like a body splash, and don't mind spraying it all over yourself, then I guess it's okay, but it's quite a lot to pay for something like that. Since I can't actually smell those beautiful herbal undertones that drew me to it in the first place, I'm much more likely to just reach for Elizabeth Arden Green Tea, which has more appealing top notes and is much, much cheaper.

My mom actually bought this for me a few years back! This really is just scented water. It smells nice and fresh, but it barely lasts beyond an hour. I spray it on myself before the gym, but I wouldn't really recommend it beyond that (plus, there are other "gym" scents far more affordable than this one that are equally as fresh).
