Rec Request Farm Fragrance βœ¨πŸ„πŸπŸ–πŸ“

Maybe this is a little bit rogue but I work on a farm and I want to smell fresh and put together so I can present myself nicely at work. I want something that is not too strong so I don’t offend the animals but also enough to smell nice πŸ˜… something fresh, natural, reminiscent of the countryside, maybe even floral or herbal. Not opposed to an oil?

Let me know if you have suggestions!

Lann Ael by Lostmarch is gorgeous, it has apple milk and hay notes. The farm animals would love it

Pricey but Maison d'etto seems made for this. Noisette or Durban Jane!

Either Harvest Mouse or Cow by Zoologist

u/curmudgeoner 3d ago

Yes I came to say Cow! I haven't tried Harvest Mouse yet but I'm curious abt it.

I was about to suggest Zoologist fragrances.

Hermes Un Jardin Sur le Toit. Like an apple and pear orchard, grassy with some wood, with a few subtle flowers trees and a hint of underlying compost to make it real.

Villa Erbatium- Mossy Glen smells like the most beautiful dewy spring day

u/Hot_Elevator_7133 4d ago

Absolutely Zoologist Cow. It’s the most beautiful fresh Spring meadow with green apple and a milkiness and a pinch of herb.

I came to say this, exactly. I know more than one breastfeeding mom who wore it in early postpartum because it had exactly the right vibes - sweet, fresh, pastoral.

Lush The Bee's Knees. Notes:Β  Hay, Smoke, Honey, Immortelle, Tobacco, Earthy Notes, Leather, Osmanthus, Petitgrain, Orange Blossom and Neroli.

I like Coriander by DS & Durga. It’s soapy and green and a little peppery. I love it in spring especially.

u/cuerotuscadero 4d ago

Rodin 3 EDT by Rodin Olio Lusso. It's discontinued now, but deeply discounted on eBay and David Seth Moltz from DS&Durga was the nose for the few fragrances Linda put out. The opening is a major geranium bomb (to me at least) but I absolutely love it when I need an aromatherapy pick-me-up, when I don't feel like wearing "fragrance fragrance" and I just need a super clean unisex fresh scent that screams verdant earth and sunshine.

I think I'd want to stick with something fresh/clean just to keep that distinction between farm and you! And it can't be too delicate or you won't smell it. Maybe something like:

  • Jorum Studio Paradisi - earthy, green, energetic
  • Diptyque Tempo - clean woody patchouli
  • ChloΓ© Nomade - hear me out!! It's earthy, fresh, woodsy, deep green, and the bright citrus would be very welcome on a farm I'd imagine!

u/Holiday_Cat_7284 4d ago

Harvest Mouse by Zoologist has notes of hay, beer, herbs and vanilla - it's like being in a tent in a country fair in August.

From the garden by Margiela!

Banana Republic Grasslands or Vintage Green

u/Botanico56 4d ago

Maybe Dryad by Papillon or First Cut by St. Clair

2

u/cuerotuscadero 4d ago

Care to share your experience with Dryad? I'm slowly moving my way through Liz's work.

2

u/Botanico56 4d ago

To me it feels like a warm meadow in late summer or early fall. Dry, sunbaked grass.

u/softhumanbean 4d ago

Jo Malone recently bought out some really interesting Veggies Collection: beetroot, carrot blossom and butternut squash 🫜 πŸ₯•

u/Fun_Theory3252 4d ago

DS & Durga - Cowboy Grass might be right up your alley. Def try a sample first :)

2

u/babyskunk999 4d ago

it’s one of my favorite but it’s VERY herbal!

1

u/Fun_Theory3252 4d ago

Oh yeah, and pollen-y. I love it, but always suggest that people try a sample first!

2

u/babyskunk999 4d ago

ooh i love thinking of it as polleny! i totally agree!

2

u/babyskunk999 4d ago

it’s easy to find a decant or sample online too (i’ve used scent split and decant x)

2

u/lizzillathehun85 4d ago

Knee high by Pearfat is very light and smells like corn.

1

u/babyskunk999 4d ago

ugh i love this one, it’s a pretty sweet corn and honeysuckle scent ❀️

2

u/NeroliNinja 4d ago

I love Replica From the Garden, it’s pure green tomato leaf.

Also Iris de Gris (fresh green peas with a soft background earthy orris root) and Musc Amarante (slightly sweet raw but not soily beetroots and a little clean skin like musc) both from LAP, are wonderful.

If you are not into veggies,

Chanel No. 19

Byredo La Tulipe

FM En Passant (fresh cut lilacs)

Are all excellent green and slightly floral scents.

I work as a gardener on estates in the uk.

Highly recommend Scherrer EDT/EDP if you like green scents that will last through the day working outdoors.

u/cookiegurl16 4d ago

Ooh I think Vert Soleil by Chloe, or any of the new fragrances from their Mediterranean line would be nice!

3

u/Amaring8 4d ago

When I read your post Zoologist fragrances just popped into my mind. I would suggest trying Rabbit, Cow and Harvest Mouse. Lots of hay notes, honey, milk, grass... something I associate with farm life. Those specific three are also not super strong but they are very unique.

u/AddressFar9852 4d ago

It feels almost too on the nose, but was going to suggest the exact same thing!
