    *holding up bullhorn*
    THIS SMELLS EXACTLY LIKE GALE HAYMAN DELICIOUS. It’s a flowery gourmand, with a lovely sweetsoft musk on the dry down and fantastic sillage.
    When I sprayed it, I screamed and giggled it was so uncanny, since I miss my mom, and it’s her signature fragrance. To verify, I had my friends and family do a blind sniff test. It’s 100% a dupe.
    If you love this, go to eBay and snag a bottle of the original Delicious. EXACT same scent – no weird synthetic anything – and only $12, tops.
    It’s the definition of cheap + chic!

    wow, this is devine! I have nothing to add to the first reviews here but that this perfume, even if the notes differ, reminds me strongly of En Passant Frederic Malle

    The name suites the fragrance very well. You get a airy and whispy green fragrance that seems to have movement and a life of it’s own.
    It is quality, understated and a easy to love green fragrance. Nothing earthy,evergreen,or dark here.
    I am not sure if I ever wanted a summer green fragrance, but here it is and well done.
    I have mugler cologne for most occasions this would ever fit.
    I recommend a sniff, could be signature scent worthy
    fair projection and 5 hours longevity, lasts on clothes

    I get an impression of lavatory green soap and sweat (not B.O., just sweat). After many hours or into the next morning, the later drydown is passable. Totally unisex. I don’t understand the hype on this one.

    Because LuckyScent has included this in their Top 5 Men’s Summer picks, I must also emphasize @Buysblind’s review. Viper Green is a unisex leaning femme fragrance at best, but maybe some men can pull this off better than I. I’m certainly not about masc scents, but I also can’t stand powder, which I get a good dose of here.
    I’d call this one a clean white floral with green notes. I get lots of the jasmine, a little angelica. It’s not at all what I had hoped for—no vicious herbal greenery to be found here. I don’t dislike it, but it’s not for me.
    Having sampled this and Cologne 352, I’m pretty ~meh~ on the Ex Nihilo offerings. They’re very even; almost too pretty, too clean. Too expensive, too.

    Men: Avoid this. This is a pale green floral in pastel hues reminiscent of a dewy green garden on a spring morning. It smells like a women’s perfume. Comparisons to Green Irish Tweed should stop at the word “Green.” There’s a faint mandarin note in the beginning, followed by soft, pale florals (rose? jasmine?) and the emergence of a very green galbanum. The galbanum accord is interesting; it’s bitterly verdant and also kind of oddly sweet. This note is strongest in the second half of Viper’s development and it’s my favorite aspect of the composition. I’m not familiar with a lot of female perfumes, so judging this one from that perspective is impossible for me to do. However, as a man, this is not something I enjoyed wearing at all. There were also times when it reminded me of Glade air freshener (the kind you keep in a spray can next to the toilet). So I wouldn’t even say that this feels worth the price, regardless of your gender. It’s not bad, but quality wise there isn’t much about it that really stands out. I found Ex-Nihilo’s Fleur Narcotique a much more satisfying floral (that men could pull off well). Since I just gave it a brief wearing one day, and I really think it’s meant for women, I’m going to hold off on a numerical rating, and just say that for me, it gets a thumbs down.
    Side note: While I’m able to articulate fragrances with some vocabulary and jargon related to the field, sometimes it’s best to trust those who can’t: The other day I sprayed some Viper Green on my arm while my wife was out running errands. The minute she arrived home and stepped through the door she exclaimed loudly, “Uggh! No! Grandma’s Underwear Drawer!” Sometimes a succinct comment like this is all you need to know whether a fragrance is for you or not. In my case, Viper Green certainly isn’t.

    Wearing this today from a sample. Certainly nothing poisonous in this one, but it’s a really pleasant laundry fresh scent. It smells like that ‘fresh linen’ laundry detergent, except more ‘green’ leaning, like it has a bit of the juice from some crushed bitter plant stems. This could easily be considered unisex. Nothing like Green Irish Tweed (I’ve seen it mentioned earlier). Fans of Eau de New York from Bond would probably enjoy this one. Just imagine the neroli replaced with more of a bitter green aspect

    One of my favorite notes is here, upfront and it never dissipates: angelica…..oh ….I love it. I also pick up mandarin, but It burns out quickly which is what I expect from a citrus accord. In the middle the florals come out: rose and either jasmine or iris. A high quality vetiver plays throughout the base. I can’t pick up the patch (other sites list this note) but it might be the note that makes the base stick.
    This is a laundry-fresh scent, it has some power behind it. VP projects softly during the first hour. Enthusiastic yes from me.

    Viper Green is brilliantly named! The overall impression of this perfume is very much like the glorious snake itself; deceptively cool and soft, slithering between green and earth. Opening looks fresh, green, citric, and unisex. But just like the viper, I got too close and it showed me its teeth. There appeared a heart of sharp galbanum, backed by a powdery note that balanced it as an element of silkiness in the background. The composition feels high quality, well-blended, and unique. The sillage was at an arm’s length and, despite the effervescent notes, never cloying or obtrusive. But I stayed with this snake for too long and, of course, it finally bit me! The vetiver and other earthy notes ambushed the delicate green phase and finished me off. As a lover of feminine-leaning notes, I could not see myself wearing it. I do, however, recommend it for lovers of aromatic unisex/masculine perfumes. This is a green masterpiece!

    Whenthesunhits summed it up perfectly. This Viper doesn’t bite, and I am delighted. Green? Yes. On the soft side? Definitely. Would I spend this month’s grocery money on a full bottle? I’d sell my soul if I needed to.

    Make no mistake — this is a beautiful composition. It’s just not what I was expecting! I *was* expecting a green scent with a smooth, dangerous bite (as the name suggests). It definitely delivers on my “green” and “smooth” expectations. The bright citrus opening is like walking through a sun-dapple before gliding into the shade, then it quickly mellows into a fresh, velvety herbal.
    Very well-blended and wearable, with no sharp edges. Projection is moderate in the first hour, and it’s still detectable on my skin 8 hours later (pretty unusual for a green scent). It’s quite linear to my nose, although it dries down to be just a *little* sweeter than before, with a hint of powder. Linear is not necessarily a dealbreaker for me when the scent is so lovely!
    What it did not deliver on was the dangerous, poisonous, unusual element. I wouldn’t call it “usual” by any stretch! But “viper” is a pretty loaded word, and I admit I was excited to try a green composition that sinks its teeth in deep and unleashes an intoxicating, unnerving venom.
    Instead, I find the scent very comforting and fresh; nothing risky or perilous here at all. If anything, it’s like falling face first into a load of fresh towels just removed from the dryer. I definitely enjoy that sensation, but I just wanted something a little more…unsafe. I wanted to be shocked by a large set of fangs before dying in slow agony, damn! But hey, I’ll take the warm towel hug; meanwhile, the search for a bone-chilling herbal toxin continues. This is a wonderful scent, though, and if the above sounds like your cuppa, I definitely recommend it.

    Don´t go looking for snakes
    You might find them

    I must agree there are some aspects really similar to Creed Green Irish Tweed. But there´s one substantial difference – Green Irish Tweed seems to be natural & inspired by nature, Viper Green is like a polished piece of green glass, bright & clear – or maybe like a slightly poisonous potion.
    It opens with fresh & sour green mandarin juice that slowly turns into sweetly herbal angelica extract with seductive jasmine accent – and this is the beating heart of this scent /and I like it A LOT/. The drydown is dusty & sweetly resinous. Viper Green is undeniably wild & seductive scent – I´m afraid it´s going to be number one on my short wish list.
    Viper Green notes according to official Ex Nihilo website:
    TOP: galbanum, angelica root, green mandarin
    HEART: sambac jasmine absolute, iris absolute, rosyfolia
    BASE: vetiver from Haiti, patchouli from Indonesia, powdery accord
    NOSE: Nadege Le Garlantezec

    This perfume is to die for! If you are a lover of Green Irish Tweed on men and are looking for a feminine comparison, go no further than this beauty. Some of my favourite notes in perfume are iris, Angelica, and Vetiver. Lucky for me, this perfume has all of those!! (Although fragrantica hasn’t included all of the notes yet). If you like fresh/herbal/earthy smells, give this a try!!
