Fresh herbaceous dirt-so fabulous for a first whiff! I am relaxing on the forest floor with eyes half closed when, Oh My! A bad little leprechaun pours out an old bucket of stagnant mop water! Ohh I’m hoping this dissipates or I may have to get up…ok, the sun is now streaming thru, heating the moss and wafting new waves of earthy greeness mingling with the mildew…I notice little sweet flowers are snaking out of the moss bank, and they begin to bloom overtaking the little mischievous man’s attempt to unsettle me. I am left with a very clean lime jello presence in the end of this odd dreamlike trail. And in this case, the end does not justify the means!

Apparently, the word to describe the smell in the air after the rain dries is “petrichor”. This is a petrichor sort of a scent, except it’s more melting ice than drying rain. It’s cold, watery and earthy.
I enjoy it very much as a perfume, but can imagine it would be great in the home spray. It reminds me quite a lot of CB’s Winter 1972 as they’re both very cold, wintery fragrances (which for me means I wear them most in the summer because they’re so cooling). But where Winter 1972 leans towards being earthy, Walking in the Air is more watery.
It’s got very soft sillage, it’s not a statement scent at all – but then that’s not really CB’s thing anyway. Longevity is around 8 hours for me.

This is riveting on both the male and the female of the species. It is a quiet, but very there scent. I thought the Home Spray was very good, but not as long lasting until I tried it on fabrics. Drapes, carpets, pillows. Then it would stay around better. I have moderately priced pieces, if you have nicer items, I would ask CB’s advice.

The dirt smell that I get in the opening of Walking in the Air reminds me of Black March only the dirt note in Walking in the Air is not as strong. Almost immediately the smell of cold fresh air overtakes the dirt smell. I can relate to WITA smelling like fresh fallen snow although I made other associations too. Walking in the Air reminds me of the smell of laundry drying on a clothes line on a windy day. This afternoon another association came to mind but I couldn’t quite figure it out what it was. Then it came to me… Beach House. Lampe Avenue makes a fragrance for fragrance lamps called Beach House. Beach House has a slight tropical vibe to it but it also smells very fresh in a similar way that Walking in the Air does.
I didn’t expect WITA to have such good longevity. At 12 o’clock this afternoon I applied a very small amount. Ten hours later I can still detect the fragrance although it has faded quite a bit. Throughout the day this fragrance projected very well. If the Home Spray version has the same longevity as the absolute I might eventually buy it.
