Thai Lemongras Pacifica for women and men

rare moments - I am one of the first reviewers, yaaay.

due to the fact that i love the smell of lemongrass this was an absolute must try. I have the pure essential oil of lemongrass, so I thought it is going to be a great idea to compare Thai Lemongrass to that.Now that I am wrapped in lemongrass, here is my review.

The opening is a burst of ginger and tangy, bittery lemon mainly and then when it slowly calms down the lemongrass becomes more articulate. Sometimes I just have the feeling that it is more of lemon and grass then lemongrass itself.

Later, reading the Pacifica website this is underlined by the below description of this fume

'bright notes of grassy lemon intermingle with ginger and sit atop slightly spicy and earthy undertones for a warm, exotic and fresh fragrance.'

for the citrus fans, it smells a little more like the lemon peel than the fruit itself (to me the peel has a bittery feel to it which is reflected here)
The pure essential oil has this kind of green feel to it whereas Thai Lemongrass has got lots of citrus added. With time Thai Lemongrass is converging towards the pure essential oil although there is still loads of car air refreshener, window cleaner feel to it from the citrus.

All in all it is a quite realistic lemongrass with a citrus twist to it - cant get much spices, there may be something that reminds me of saffron but it is very faint.

So as the grouping goes, it is a citrus indeed, even if that is not listed among the notes here.

P.s. after half an hour there is some greenness with the Thai Lemongrass, however after an hour it almost disappeared. The pure essential oil is still kicking although it seems to have lost some of the greenness and won over some lemmonyness.

Conclusions
I think I'll stay with my pure essential oil as it lasts longer ;)
