S.M.T.H. – :
This smells like shampoo.lol Nothing spectacular like Tabasso said

I am not getting these reviews. This scent is not an 80s bomb! It lasted two hours, sat close to the skin, went on citrus then developed a little sharp floral note to it. Nothing spectacular. Nothing offensive.

Agreed with cloyd42 below, on the ‘strong 80’s’ opulence.
On my skin, however, the Opoponax dominates, by far. I can do opoponax in small quantities (ex: Shalimar), but this is too much for me. :o)
As a collector of Galbanum frags, I did a double-take to see if Olfactif *sent the wrong sample*, since the opopnoax is too strong for me to detect anything else.
There’s nothing wrong with The Good Earth. If you’re into galbanum, keep looking. If you’re in the market for opoponax, you’re in business!

This overwhelms with galbanum. I’m not getting any green or mossiness. Nothing soft or subtle about it. Very steely cold–Nancy Reagan or Imelda Marcos would have worn this. If you don’t understand the reference, be glad; the 80’s absolutely sucked and this is very much of that time.
Sillage: big, 1-3 ft
Persistence: 3-4 hours
Fabulosity: White House china
Value to price ration: okay if you like it
3/10

A few things: I am new to the world or niche fragrances and I’m not good with recognizing notes. I describe scents by what they remind me of.
I received a spray sample from Olfactif of The Good Earth. I tried it two days ago. Three sprays: inner elbows, neck. Oh my, I thought. This is a very familiar scent, but I couldn’t place it. Not unpleasant, but not something I wanted to smell like. Throughout the day, when I would catch a whiff, I would grab at my hair and smell it. Nothing. Why am I smelling my hair?!? Ah! Because I smell hairspray. The Good Earth smells to me like the salon hairspray I always try to decline.
Hairspray.
I tried it again the next day (yesterday). Same thing. This morning my spouse and I hugged, he called me Aguanet. lol At least it’s long lasting.
