Different, unique, really amazing and so so refreshing.

Love love love it. Thanks again ScentBar, you have never steered me wrong! A more subtle approach to a mint fragrance, which is a good stepping stone fore those searching for a true mint scent. Anyone who has also been searching for it knows how difficult it can be to create a true mint fragrance. While not my #1, it’s still a great scent to add to your arsenal!

If green is your game - you'll love this. I smelled no notes of mint on my skin, but the smell of "grass" and white cedar were prominent. The bergamot was also fleeting on my skin, which is odd because that is a note my skin really tends to capture. To me, this is simple a pure - lying directly on the grass on a warm summer afternoon.

This absolutely reminds me of Floridian nights and balmy mornings. Light grassy overtones with playful spearmint.

Great for the incredible heat of a Florida summer if you want a refreshing splash. Doesn’t last long but nice on me while it lasts.

Starts out great but can't back it up. Starts out so fresh, then starts to tea (like spearmint leaves steeping on your skin), but then it's meh. I'm going to try layering with some M01/02 and see what happens.

I am new and am by no means a fragrance connoisseur. With this said, I find Menthe Fraiche by HEELY to be a very nose-pleasing fragrance for me. I don't like strong fragrances, and this works well for me. To me, I smell a little mint, but mostly I get clean/subtly soapy when I smell my wrist. It would have earned 5 stars, but the white cedar? is somewhat bothering me: I don't care for cedar. I think I will also try Peppermint by Comme des Garcons and/or other mint fragrances. Very well done.

The past reviews on the fruitiness of this are very accurate. For all considering a purchase of the bottle or sample, do keep in mind that the scent revolves around a fruity mint gum. I believe this should be consider feminin instead of unisex. With that being said, this is a quality scent that holds it's own.

The first instant is a spot-on rendition of a muddled mint leaf’s bright herbal sting, but we move quickly along that to a super-sweet minted-tea effect that for one dangerous moment seemed to be heading for mint-bubblegum territory. The ultra-light cedar at the base puts everything back on track and gently recapitulates that first herbal moment. The whole production doesn’t (as mentioned by others) last long, but a scent this clean and gentle isn’t likely to cause drama if you feel the need to re-apply halfway through your day.

Fresh, crisp, starts with punch of cool mint and then dries into a perfect green tea. This is my go-to for warm days. Love!

I love this. So easy to wear, so fresh and clean. Could never be offensive. Bought the sample from the Heeley site, very tempted to buy the full bottle for spring/ summer...

It smells exactly like freshly torn mint leaves. Some nice longevity. Not a complex scent, but refreshing.

I smell raspberries and mint.

Menthe Fraiche by Heeley! By far the most practical take on mint, this can be a good or bad thing, depending on your taste. I personally like it, however it does seem to lack any real depth. On the positive side it won't offend anyone.

Very minty up front with a touch of citrus. Later it changes a little with a sharp bitter note, ambergris, white musk and maybe vanilla. It maintains an astringent sort of note to remind you of the mint that wore off long ago. Mint is a top note, so it does not stick around. I'm not sure what the medicinal note that lingers is from. Maybe virginia cedar or cypress

I think this is a very unique scent, worthy of consideration by people who really like simple, fresh fragrances and don't mind mint/sweetness. Projection/longevity are lacking, but you can always wear more, or put unscented lotion on your skin right before spraying. But for what it's lacking in those areas, it definitely makes up for in quality of scent. This is unbelievable, and definitely without a doubt my #1 summer daily-wear scent. Awesome.

Have to echo many of the previous comments.....just a gorgeous fragrance, but the longevity (or lack thereof) is really frustrating. I have a bottle, simply because the first 15 minutes of this perfume are incredible.....but after 2-3 hours, the icy mint masterpiece fades into oblivion.

Really lovely, but on me it seems to disappear in minutes. The mint up top smells exactly like a torn live leaf, not bagged tea or the synthetic mint smells that are in a million products from gum to lotion. After that fades, it's simply light and bright underneath. I could easily make this a daily-wear scent -- great for early mornings and the office -- if only it would last. (Interestingly, I have Eau Radieuse on my other wrist and I'm getting an idea that these two might layer well.)

Really loved this scent as to actually purchase a full bottle. Had a sample for well over a year, and it finally grew on me. Its comforting scent of mint isn't too obnoxious, nor synthetic.
