This composition is all sweet flowers for me. I unfortunately pick up none of the green or earthy notes. And Mrs. Meyer’s honeysuckle-scented dish soap (which happens to be what sits by my kitchen sink) smells almost identical to the top-notes of this perfume. I do enjoy it despite this uncanny resemblance, but I’d like it more if I could smell the grass and oak!
The scent stays relatively close to the body, and has decent staying power, but it doesn’t last as long as other perfume oils that I’ve used. I’d say this is office-friendly, and appropriate for any daytime occasion without being too bland or timid.

Bright, green, fresh, yet deep with a floral gossamer ribbon running throughout. Really special, and beautiful parfum oil. I own the rollerball version of this, and am giving serious consideration for the larger sculptured piece. This is the attar of the East Coast.

This perfume is so conflicting! on one hand it is gorgeously old fashioned, and definitely evokes that glam art nouveau feel, but on the other hand it does occasionally dip into being something slightly old ladyish. But then I can’t quiet tell if thats a bad thing.
On me it opens with a very powdery sweet blood orange note, with a hint of green and petrichor very close to the skin. As it evolves it becomes more floral, heavily Hyacinth, which is probably what feeds into the ‘old lady’ aspect of it. At its very last i’m left with that syrupy sweetness and a hint of snapped-leaf green.
It reminds me on first sniff of Hawaii, how everything has a heavy syrupy green floral scent to it, a full of sharp but powdery Jasmine. It does really fit with that old New York 20s-30s glamour though. Sniffing it desperately makes me want to don a feather trimmed dressing gown and sip away on some champagne.

What a lovely perfume. On my skin, there’s Grass, Hyacinth, Tulip, with a sprinkle of Muguet. It’s the green-floral scent of a florist’s refrigerator opening, to reveal vases full of fresh-cut Tulips.
As it’s an oil, sillage is low. In order to amp it up, I roll it up & down my arms til I’m greased up like a tempura shrimp. The rollerball’s only $30, so the ‘used quantity’ doesn’t bother me one bit. It’s a great scent I can’t get enough of.
This was a blind buy, and I am _delighted_. Just ordered Joya’s Composition #1 as well! :o)

This reminds me of home, Jamaica, in the country… the smell of fresh grass and dewy earth in the morning. Sweet and earthy with a suggestion of fragrant flowers. Love it!
Love it even more as I realize this a natural perfume house! No wonder it smells so authentic. Must try for nature lovers.
