Scent Bar Staff Video Review for Absinthe Boreale

Video Transcript

It's hard not to love a classic fougere. Fougere style scents are so approachable and most of the top-selling mass-market masculine fragrances are in the fougere style. So this is really exciting to me, Absinthe Boreale, because it's taking that classical fougere style which almost always uses lavender in the mix and combines it with other herbal notes like Clary Sage.

This one also contains some Artemisia, some mint, and it gives this really beautiful cool icy feel to it. The name Boreale makes me think of the Aurora Borealis. So I'm thinking you're at the very top of Scandinavia, maybe plucking wild herbs in springtime.

This is fantastic. Like I said, it's incredibly approachable, very easy to wear, and it has a very classic masculine feel, but I think this would be so fantastic on a woman too. Clean, bright, and sophisticated.

I'm assuming the low ratings come from the projection and longevity. It's not an all day in your face scent. It's a wonderful scent for warmer weather. I'm not really into green scents, but this is the one for me and one of the scents that I go back to. Just like DS &Durga Coriander. It's a refreshing green herbal scent that gives harmony instead of one or a few main notes then some background noise. It will probably be one of the few bottles that I will have to re-up on sooner than later, even the 100ml.

I had high hopes for this. I recently ordered the sample set of Crivelli to try them all...it seemed I'd like most of them. I was disappointed to find that this one just disappears the minute it's sprayed. I'm not sure what they were going for because I don't get anything. Literally, nothing. Okay, I smell something I just really don't know what it is and then it's gone. Really, nothing. I can't even say it smells good or bad. Whatever little I got was gone in less than half an hour if that. Bad sample, maybe? So odd.

A beautiful crisp and transparent breath of fresh air. Its zesty, refreshing, bright, uplifting, and perfectly unisex. The notes suggest it might be piercing and sharp but I find it to be more ethereal than expected. If you are averse to fragrances that are cleaning product tangential, then you may wish to skip this one. It does remind me of luxurious cleaning spray due to the combination of lemon, mint, eucalyptus, and juniper.
