Scent Bar Staff Video Review for Poeme de Sagano

Video Transcript

The perfumer Sonia Konstan was inspired by a trip to Sagano, Japan. It's outside of Kyoto, and it's famous for a very large bamboo forest. She was describing all of the shades of green that she saw while visiting this forest, and she tried to capture it in this fragrance Poeme de Sagano, and I think it's such an accomplishment.

There are these wonderful green notes like bamboo, mate, eucalyptus, but at the heart of this fragrance is a very juicy yuzu, which just gives it such a wonderful, refreshing vivacity. The first time I wore this fragrance, I thought I was smelling suede in the dry down, but I was also wearing a suede jacket, so I thought, well, it's probably the jacket that I'm smelling.

But it turns out I get that same effect no matter what I'm wearing, so I'm going to say there's a suede dry down to this scent. It's unexpected and very beautiful.

To me, this smells exactly like Eau de Cartier, and similar to Prada Infusion d’Iris, which I wore in my early 20s. It’s not a terrible scent by any means, but I don’t get the matcha or patchouli notes at all. The head note of grapefruit I immediately get and love, but it disappears as soon as it’s on my skin.

Smells very nice, but not on me.

Got the sample. Wasn’t too thrilled about this perfume. When you first put it on, it smells like grass. It’s does smell a little better after it dries down & I can smell the citrus & mint. But not something I’ll be purchasing.

I purchased a sample after reading the description and was hopeful to find a fresh spa scent. I am sorry to say that this didn't work on my skin. At drydown I got a funky body odor smell. I'd suggest trying before buying.
