Green fragrances

Crushed leaves and cut grass. Smells like outside, in a good way.

What they smell like

• Absinthe Bitter wormwood and anise. Green, boozy and slightly wicked.
• Aromatic Accord Herbal freshness in the lavender and rosemary mould, blended into one impression.
• Artemisia Bitter and silvery-herbal. Wormwood, the backbone of a fougère.
• Bamboo Watery green with a woody edge. Spa-adjacent.
• Basil Peppery herb with an aniseed lift. Culinary but wearable.
• Black Tea Dry, tannic and smoky. More astringent than green tea.
• Bouquet Garni A kitchen bundle of herbs. Savoury, aromatic and a little dry.
• Cactus Cool, watery and faintly bitter green. Desert-fresh.
• Camphor Cold, medicinal and sharp. The chest-rub freshness that clears the air.
• Cannabis Green, resinous and skunky at the edges. Used for shock more than realism.
• Carrot Seed Earthy, rooty and oddly powdery. Often used to echo iris.
• Clary Sage Softer, sweeter sage with an ambery undertone. Warm and herbal.
• Cucumber Cool, watery and clean. Almost more a texture than a smell.
• Davana Odd and gorgeous — apricot jam, rum and dried herbs at once.
• Eucalyptus Sharp, camphorous, clears the head. Reads as clean more than green.
• Fern Not a real smell — the mossy, coumarin idea of a fern that named the fougère.
• Fig Leaf Milky, green and slightly coconut-like. The smell of shade.
• Galbanum Intensely green resin. Smells like snapping a plant stem in half.
• Cut Grass Exactly what it says. Sharp, wet and nostalgic.
• Green Leaves Crushed stems and fresh leaves. Snappy, sharp and outdoorsy.
• Green Tea Dry, slightly bitter, calm. Quiet and very easy to wear.
• Hay Sun-dried grass and tonka. Warm, rustic and comforting.
• Ivy Cool, damp and shaded. Green without being sweet.
• Mastic Resinous pine-and-lemon. The chew of Greek gum.
• Matcha Green tea thickened up — creamy, vegetal, faintly nutty.
• Mate Dry, smoky, bitter green tea. Toasted rather than fresh.
• Mint Cold and tingly. Great in small doses, toothpaste in large ones.
• Oregano Dry, warm and savoury. Rare in perfume and unmistakable when it appears.
• Peppermint Icy and sharp. Reads clean but can tip into chewing gum.
• Rhubarb Tart, pink and green at once. Sour fruit with a stalky edge.
• Rosemary Sharp, camphorous herb. Bracing and clean, borders on medicinal.
• Sage Dry, herbal and slightly bitter. Adds a grown-up, aromatic edge.
• Shiso Herbal, minty and slightly aniseed. Unusual and memorable.
• Spearmint Softer, sweeter mint. Less medicinal than peppermint.
• Tarragon Anise-tinged and green. Adds a herbal lift to barbershop scents.
• Tea Tea with no variety named. Dry, slightly tannic and calm.
• Thyme Dry, sharp kitchen herb. Bracing and slightly antiseptic.
• Tomato Leaf Bitter, fuzzy, greenhouse-in-summer. Divisive and very distinctive.
• Violet Leaf Crisp, watery green with a metallic edge. Cool rather than fresh.
