Strong floral and red fruit woods
Like every single G&B scent, this is strong. Too intense for me personally, but then out of the entire G&B discovery set there are only two that I like and can handle (Pacific Rock Moss and Bohemian Lime). That said, I love the concept of this brand. This particular scent is very floral for a fragrance classified as Woods. The blackcurrant gives it a tart fruitiness, and the coconut is a just detectable lovely note. If you haven’t tried G&B before I recommend trying a sample before going full size.

Lovely
This little bit of Australia is a wonderful way to celebrate what beautiful country this is. Scent is heady to begin and improves well, for me. Very happy with purchase - and with Libertine’s approach of sending samples, very helpful!

- Soft Floral
A unique floral
This is unique among the florals that I own. It's sweet and lovely. A little watery and light, but present. Lasts a reasonable amount of time.
