Green and linear. Vetiver. And very, very linear. It’s like the best soap you’ve ever used. And with the prettiest packaging. For about an hour I like it, but ultimately a pass for me.

It starts like a greenery during spring. Uplifting, bright, light colored greens, chartreuse, lime green. Then, as if dark heavy clouds appear in the sky, Verde turns humid, full of vapor before a downpour.
And then it happens, the rain and static release a wild symphony of greens, wet earth and woods.
Top notes are citrus and green. Middle is dark green, slightly woody and just a tiny bit powdery. Dry down is woods.
I personally find Verde very attractive, a green scent with depth and character while at the same time introspective and unpretentious.

This is an amazing scent. Green, wet, light scent with fern and vetiver… Cedar is very muted. The scent makes me think I’m in a rain forest with new plants growing about knee high. Perhaps that is the case with the cedar too.
Still smelling it hours later on my skin. Very relaxing and calming fragrance.
I’m not sure if this is unisex or not, but most definitely could be…and even leans slightly toward masculine.

This is green, but I wouldn’t think of it as citrusy as verbena or as earthy as fern. More leafy. Not much cedar and not very woody. I definitely get some vetiver, but I also get a light floral so it doesn’t feel too masculine. It isn’t quite laundry fresh, but I would put it in the same category as Diptyque Eau de Lierre. There is something about it that feels very spring-like

I didn’t realize this was unisex, but I get it now. I’d rather smell this on a man than myself.
bae525Diobtetty – :
This isn’t what you’d think of when you think of a “green” fragrance. It’s not grassy or leafy. It’s not sharp and permeating. This is more of a scent of jungle foliage and unsergrowth. There’s a hint of a woodsy finish. This one smells a lot better on skin than on a tester strip.

I really have always LOVED “Green” fragrances – so if you don’t like something “GREEN” then pass this one by.
If you are open to Fresh GREEN scents – then by all means, you really need to TRY THIS ONE!
It is definitely FRESH—
Almost with the smell of ivy – something that lingers on the skin and has a more full bodied and lingering aroma than Nest’s Indigo fragrance. This fragrance easily dominates in a way that Nest’s Indigo does not.
I have always been drawn to Green fragrances – I truly LOVE Vetiver – in men’s fragrances. This is a solid fragrance, a full chord – which I really love. You can’t compare this to anything on the market, or anything that I’ve tried.
I also love Cabotine – which is a very naive and fresh green scent – compared to this one.
I’m on the fence about buying this. If I had room for more of a collection, this would definitely be one of my choices, but I feel that I prefer something a little bit lighter than this. I think this one would wear better in winter and fall – than spring and summer. It is a little bit heavy for this area of the country (Southern CA) for the spring and summer.
———-
I prefer a stronger scent of fig or vetiver than the ivy type smell that I am smelling in this particular fragrance. It isn’t bad, but it isn’t so good that I will buy this immediately. This may be something I will add later when I have more room for fragrances other than my signature scents.

I love this fragrance. It’s like you brushed past a Pink Breath of Heaven shrub, which leaves behind a lovely scent on your hand. Full bottle worthy for me if only it lasted longer than it does. I barely can detect it after 20 minutes or so. This reminds me a lot of L’Eau Couture Elie Saab for women, which is just as lovely but lasts longer.
and-baranik – :
oh my this is the BEST green scent i have ever smelled……….most green scents smell sharp , sour or real grassy or sometimes like wet dog pee lol i know but sometimes it smells like that lol…………anyway this is a beautiful soft green floral……….i feel bad saying green but heck its called verde lol the bottle is so pretty too – in fact all the nest bottles are to die for 🙂 the scent is not heavy – very wearable & on me it lasts 🙂
свн – :
Green and white floral, not picking up much ceder or vetivert. Plesant green with sweet floral and fruits notes. Pretty linear. Not green enough and too sweet for my tastes.

A pluviophile’s mood boost in a bottle. Living green, shady and rainy. Very stable over a decent length of time, not much evolution to this, just gradually fades over many hours to a polite and consistent end. Simple construction, perhaps it is good for layering, though I can never bring myself to dilute the effect in order to find out.

I got a vial sample from Sephora today and it is verde (green) that’s it. Fresh clean alive green scent. I kinda like it. There isn’t many stages to this scent but it is not needed, it smells very natural. Vetiver mingled with fern…mmm mmmm
PS: It projects around your own space, which I like, and it’s 4 hrs and I still get whiffs of the greenery. I’m predicting a good 6 hrs longevity out of this juice. I sampling in the colder months, so warmer months could be even better.
Kish – :
I got this in a deluxe trial set. It’s nice, but too masculine. I gave it to my husband.
Kukushonok – :
This smells kind of Christmas-y on me. I don’t know if it’s the cedar… or the verbana, or what, but I was frantically reading the notes to see if there was some spearmint in here. Nest fragrances are so weird.
This will make you feel cool, as in cool and refreshed. It would be good to wear in summer to cool yourself down.
People keep saying “green lush rainforest,” but again, that’s not what I’m getting here. I can definitely smell the cedar and the verbana and the vetiver, all of which are very strong. Maybe a Wisconsin forest or a Maine forest. What is a “fern” supposed to smell like? I have to say I’m rather baffled as to what note is supposed to smell like ferns.
People are right: this is unisex or “masculine.” It’s a spicy, woody, foresty smell – which I guess we have been trained to think of as “manly.” If you only like “feminine”-smelling perfumes, this will not be the choice for you. This almost makes me cough if I breathe too deeply while smelling it on my skin. The scent doesn’t fade, instead it stays intensely on your skin and seems to become stronger as it dries down.
Again, all of these Nest scents are weird. Or “unique.” If you like traditional fragrances with traditional note combinations, this is not the brand for you. This is a spicy, strong, woody scent.
I don’t like this.
I got three hours of wear from this, almost exactly.

I wanted to like this, I really did. I don’t dislike it. It is just kind of meh. Very innocuous. The fern and verbena mixed to create a slightly green blanket around the main vetiver note. Cedar is meekly in the background. A well blended but linear scent. I do not see this as unisex, I am giving the rest of my sample to my husband. I only see the crunchiest of women wearing it. It is possible to like it without wishing to wear it. Verde is inoffensive but totally forgettable.
It barely lasted the morning. I am reapplying with a different scent for the afternoon, and there isn’t any scent pollution.
Lillderly – :
There was something very familiar and almost comforting about the scent. I couldn’t quite place what it reminded me of. Then I saw someone’s comment about men’s deodorant. That’s about right. The longer I wore it, the less I liked it. It really stuck with me, and seemed to get more potent and almost artificial over time–but I wonder if the deodorant idea didn’t just get to my head.
alex428 – :
Second the “mens deodorant” opinion. Exactly.
kazarcev.yura – :
I absolutely love this scent, to me it is the essence of the color green, verde was such an appropriate name for this! It is so unique to anything i have ever owned, i could pick it out in a crowd in a second! I wear perfume every day and i switch it up often, out of all my various scents this one seems to get me the most compliments from both women and men. I like to carry it with me to feel refreshed during my long work days. I have it in a rollerball but will be purchasing the full size for summer.

Scent pyramid: Strongest to weakest
VERBENA (overshadows everything)
Fern (slightly detectable – masked under the powerful verbena – but you can definitely tell it’s there)
Cedar (almost undetectable, I’d never say this if I didn’t see this listed in the notes here)
This smells like you took a shower in the rainforest using verbena-scented shampoo. This has no fruit tones, so I just mean a really really green rainforest.
To describe verbena, it sort of smells like a lemon had a baby with a white floral, like gardenia. Not that sharp citrus feel, but softer, kinda soapy. Like a fancy hotel’s shampoo or something.
When you get down to it, it’s just very green, bright, wet, and softly lemony.
Dried down, it’s a very slight mix of everything I said, but still smells mostly like verbena. The drydown is not very impressive, it kinda just smells like you showered.
Maybe b/c I have the rollerballs, not the spray (and I only roll once or twice), like other Nest EDPs, the scent does not travel. No one will be able to tell you’re wearing perfume. These are like aromatherapy for those days when you’d just like to sniff yourself.

This smells exactly like a man’s deodorant, it’s fresh, green and simple. Nothing wrong with this “cologne”, nice for a man, but not feminine at all.
Uplite – :
I love how fresh and green this smells. Great for summer! Moderate projection on me. I like that the scent is unusual and new. Does not smell like others I have. Definitely NOT in the floral or gourmand grouping. Green, earthy, herbal goodness. I would gladly wear this, and also think it would smell great on my husband. This is a scent that revives and energizes you! Happy smelling! 🙂
kleo_777_83 – :
This is so freakishly weird that I actually like it.
It is not a normal “girly” fragrance at all. It is quirky and unusual. Smells like grass and wood and forest- and I love it. But again, it is not for the office or for a date, unless you are dating a botanist 😉
Danehadpgfogf – :
I like this, but was hoping to love it. It just didn’t quite meet my expectations, I wanted something greener and darker. It smells very much like Passiflora with a slightly different base. I’m hoping my opinion will change after trying it a few more times.
aspss – :
One of the most unusual fragrances for summer. It’s definitely worth a test if you like plant based scents vs. an all out floral.
meba – :
Dearest Nest Fragrances, I adore your concepts for fragrances, and Verde seemed like it would fulfill my longing for a deep green scent, redolent of woods, fern, and citrusy vetiver. Alas, one strong, sharp note of pine tar emerged on my skin and stayed for hours. People wondered if I had spilled Pine Sol on my shoes. I have yet to find a fragrance in your house that works with my typically forgiving chemistry. I am puzzled, but will keep trying to find one that works for me.Sincerely, a hopeful future fan.
ФОШЕЧКА – :
Like many Nest fragrances, initial reaction to this fragrance is the thought that it is a bit strange. It immediately reminded me of working in the forests in the Pacific Northwest as a botanist. The fern note mixed with the vetiver gives a very realistic olfactory portrait of the underbrush of Pacific Northwest forests- ferns, forbs, and an amalgam of wet plants mixed with earth. I could never wear this fragrance, but I actually did enjoy smelling the scent. If strong and herbaceous wild plants is your jive, you might really love this one. I wish the verbena was amped up a notch to make this a bit more wearable, but I think this fragrance will have an appreciative audience just how it is.
