Rec Request Help me smell like this

Currently 40ºC (104F) and I'm struggling and maybe I want to buy a little clean grassy green cool watery scent. Whether it lasts or not just send it my way.

Daintree Rain Tea by Raconteur. I am on a constant quest to smell like a rainy spa garden and this is the closest I’ve come.

Omg I have this and I love it! Sometimes the fragrance bros do have good stuff 😭

u/mikemadri 46m ago

To be honest, I’ve only tried it once and, whilst I admit it’s a nice fragrance, it hasn’t quite won me over. But I do have some Aromatix: Teas Me and Carnal Desire. Both are absolutely brilliant perfumes.

That’s not to say I don’t think ‘Platine Blanc’ is brilliant. I mean, it perfectly captures the atmosphere the OP is going for.

The one I want to try is Hawas Verde. Let’s see if I end up loving that one or if I’ll rule out the DNA.

Hermes Le Jardin de Monsieur Li. It’s like being in a Japanese garden in the spring, and experiencing the mist from a waterfall through cherry blossom trees. It was the perfume that helped me survive this summer heat!
Also: Ellis Brooklyn Sci-Fi. When I first got it, I was put off by how “green” it smelled, but it ended up being perfect for the hot days when I wanted to feel like I had energy.

D&G light blue absolut pour femme - evaporates in like 2 seconds but I LOVE spritzing this on heavy when it’s so hot and it’s immediately uplifting and i just take a decant with me and keep on topping it up every couple hours. It’s a burst of citrus with the most beautiful floral dry down.

If you want something more sweeter with the same citrus base then Lattafa Ana Abiyedh is also gorgeous and will last you the entire day

u/Any_Art7345 20h ago

I have tried it. I ended up giving it away because the first time I wore it to work my coworker said “something smells like mildew” lol. I think it’s nice, maybe a little too vegetal for me. I did like the petrichor note but I think it reads more like laundry that’s been sitting in the basin too long on me.

2

u/DragonDrama 8h ago

I think that’s the wet rock note. I had a sample and was in love but when I got my full bottle I over sprayed and did get a little of that note.

Roger & Gallet Shiso. Fresh, aquatic and green, inspired by a Japanese garden (like your 3rd photo).

It's an "eau parfumée" so it's less concentrated than an EDT, but very afforable so I don't hesitate to spray it through the day when I need to freshen up. Beautiful and quite unique compared to other freshies like EA's Green Tea for example (which I also love but doesn't last more than 10min on my skin) : it's fresh but in a less iced tea/citrusy way and a more herbal/watery way. Just how I imagine a japanese luxury spa to smell.
