Tilia

Pleasantly Surprised

Loathed this one on paper. I found it sharp, shrill and overly cloying. Recently revisited it on skin when it popped up in a sample kit, and I’m glad I did. On skin it tempered significantly, the shrillness burning off and settling into a woody, green, Vetiver dry down. Not an overly masculine scent, but a genuinely pleasant wear and a good reminder not to judge a scent on paper alone. I’ll likely pick up a bottle.
