Celadon : A Velvet Green DSH Perfumes for women and men

Celadon is a very interesting shape-shifter of a scent.

The first time I wore it, I got mostly grass notes, hay and lime. It smelled very sunny and kind of retro/1950's, like the kind of scent ladies with little hats and gloves would wear while sipping tea out of china cups.

Today, I tried it again and it's almost entirely orris root. I reapplied a few hours later, on the other wrist this time, and still mostly orris, with a bit of violet leaf. It actually reminded me of Ava Luxe Midnight Violet, though less "gothic" in its presentation.

Six hours later now, the vanilla and tonka leave a soft, lingering sweetness and all the green notes are gone.

Longevity is excellent, sillage is average, and the fragrance's evolution through its pyramid is one heck of a ride!

What violet leaves in the base? For that matter, what base? I got the slightly sweet grass and cucumbers, and then poof! it disappeared from my skin. I'll try again when it's warmer (ah, but will it ever get warmer on the coast? I'll take this sample with me to Phoenix, AZ when I fly there in July!)

This was my second favorite from this line. I'ts very green indeed, but super wearable, and is something you'll reach for whenever the weather gets warm. The cucumber and grass notes made this a stand out for me, and violet leaf in the base notes will really seduce you. If you are perusing to sample something from this perfumer, I highly recommend this one, it's not very heavy, and can easily appeal to a wide audience.
