I suppose this is what a teenage boy smells like, ew

Анонім★★★★★

Wasn't a fan of this at first sniff but I see the vision. Soapy, floral lime. Clean, delicate, doesn't feel the need to announce itself to everyone. Very likeable, very office friendly. I hear the complaints about longevity but unfortunately that's just the name of the game with citrus.

Анонім★★★★★

Ambroxan, synthetic musk and hedione. Synthetic and faint. Sigh. 3rd least favorite of the house.

sillage is intimate as everyone says but this stuff lasts forever

Yeah, I don’t like this. In the opening it smells like grass for a few seconds. Then, I get hints of citrus and despite the notes, this immediately turns into a heady jasmine and patchouli on my skin. It’s not a bad fragrance but it’s just not what I typically go for. Kind of boring. If I would have got neroli with a hint of lime and tons of woods and ambroxan, I would have probably adored this. Just not my vibe and smells barely anything like the listed notes.

I ordered a sample of this on Scent Split and I am glad I did that before using my Scent Box monthly pick for this. I have never encountered a perfume that I dislike as much as this one. I don't know what ingredient in this was so offensive to my nose but I was actually disgusted when I smelled it. I'm sure this scent is lovely for the right person but I am not the target audience for this. I could not even continue smelling it for long enough to give a thorough review as I had to stop smelling it immediately.

This is the most underwhelming perfume I have ever smelt. I feel so bad for the person who payed a lot of money to gift this to me... :( it's the worst perfume I've ever had and in all honesty smells like bathroom freshener. Thankfully it lasts ca 2 minutes on the skin. Do not waste your money on this and definitely do not blind buy. If you like "fresh" scents like this one, save tour money and buy febreeze.

I have never encountered this before, but Anyway essentially disappears on my skin and I barely smell anything. There is a little sour note, which I think is the lime, and the jasmine flew by. Then, nothing. Someone else mentioned tequila and it does just kind of smell like you dabbed alcohol on yourself. Not rubbing alcohol, but a tequila shot. And you have to shove your nose right up to your skin to detect it. Maybe it comes alive in the summer, but in the winter it is essentially silent.

Got a sample of this to try it out and I kinda like it. I gotta test it out some more tho to make sure it isn't leaning to much into the citrus cleaning products vibes on my skin long term.

It’s 92 at 8:20 am on July the 5th. Bright and sunny and oven hot! What do you wear on a long walk in the park? Anyway, of course! Such a fresh, bright, crisp, sunny day scent! The opening is a bit effervescent with a splash of citrus and clean. It clearly has JHAG DNA, but a bit less ambroxan forward. Highly recommend this clean freshie for any summer day!!

Top 10 fragrances I despise (after smelling it once). Cannot imagine wanting to smell like this.

Анонім★★★★★

Fresh and citrusy with a light floral scent without veering into overly soapy or cleaning products. The ambroxan and woody undernotes give this a lovely depth. I'm reminded of the Lightsource by Andrea Maack profile, but I really like the undertones that come out in the dry down that make it its own.

Анонім★★★★★

Opens with a powerful lime. For the first three minutes, the lime, ambroxan & neroli clash terribly to produce the smell of what I can only describe as my chain-smoking aunty's stuffy living room (RIP Aunty). Thankfully after that the lime recedes a little and it's a rather nice neroli with a background of jasmine and lime for 40-ish minutes before the dry-down of a nice woody musk hits. Still not for me but nice for somebody.

Анонім★★★★★

Smells like bathroom freshener. Its not bad, but I would never want to smell like it.

Анонім★★★★★

It's hard to tell whether the fragrance leans more towards freshness or musk. Unfortunately, the boldness of the musk is too overpowering for my taste. I personally prefer their more recent releases, where the musk takes a subtler role.

Анонім★★★★★

Fresh scent for cold summer, fall and winter time. Wearing it now in Ankara Türkiye, 26 degrees, fresh windy evening. Gives cozy sweater vibes. Perfect fit for some knitted wool cardigan, evening walking, or some rituals before bed

Анонім★★★★★

Fresh & airy! I love this! Very safe for office wear, and really shines in hot weather! Fresh citrus, soft airy sheer florals & soft clean musk. Very gentle woods. A breath of fresh air!

Анонім★★★★★

A squirt of lime over Not a Perfume. Barely there, extremely sheer — almost smells like the residue of a tequila shot. Pleasant but immensely forgettable, but I get the sense that's the point: it's a background, casual, go about your day kind of fragrance. Better than Not A Perfume but not my scene.

Анонім★★★★★

I wanted to love it but somehow the musk in this pulls very "old lady" on me. I prefer the citrus in Gentlewoman, it somehow feels fresher for spring and summer. But overall I prefer Not a Perfume to both. I will try some layering combos with other notes to see if I can salvage it.

Анонім★★★★★

This perfume smells so simple, yet good. It’s something about the Lime and Neroli combo that just makes it feel so smooth on my skin. I don’t know why, but to me this fragrance just put me in an easy and uncomplicated state of mind. It’s summer and I have plenty days off,- kinda feeling. On my skin it lasts for about 5-8 hours, but it’s only projecting noticeable for the first two hours. It’s just an easy grab for summer days when the sun hits your skin hard. This is also one of them perfumes that really shines when the skin is becoming sweaty from sun exposure. The mix of fresh summer sweat in combination with “Anyway” smells out of this world and gives off a very beach like mood to the wearer. Does it lean unisex? I’d say no. To my nose it’s definitely more feminine than masculine, but who cares?! It’s summertime in a bottle and I long for it whenever I’m at the beach or walking the woods in the heat of summer. Neroli and lime has become summer in a bottle for me :)

Анонім★★★★★

A unisex and summery citrus-floral perfume that I didn't find it special enough as to want to buy a full bottle. To me it smells like white flowers, especially a very softened neroli, surrounded by green lemon and with a background of light ambroxan. It is refreshing and pleasant but a little subtle for my taste. It has a soft sillage and lasts on my skin for 3-4 hours, a little longer if we apply very generously. Taking into account its price, there are scents that compete with it and beat it in intensity and performance. Furthermore, I personally enjoy more compositions in which neroli is somewhat more predominant and pungent.

Breaks my heart to see people comparing this to Jour d'Hermes... This smells like being at a dingy old bar. Like it seriously smells like a margarita spilled all over a wooden bar table by some dude wearing too much cheap cologne. Anyway... Edit: After letting this sit for an hour or so, I am eating my words. It's really not bad once the screechiness goes away. It's mostly ambroxan on my skin now, which I am a fan of. Not something I'd purchase, but not as bad as my initial impression haha.

It might be my skin chemistry, but I (and others around me) stop noticing it 5 minutes after the initial spary. 30 minutes later if you put your nose right to the skin, you can notice some light masculine scent in the base notes. I had a tester set of various JHAG fragrances and they just don't seem to work for me. I don't recommend this brand as a "blind buy". I find it doesn't really smell like the stated composition of notes in real life.

Анонім★★★★★

It’s light and clean, suitable for the warm weather. I caught a whiff of the citrus and musky notes after about an hour. I was a bit underwhelmed by this fragrance. The initial spray smelled like liquid, spray-type sunscreen on me. I did not experience the woody notes. You need at least five sprays to appreciate it and you'll have to re-spray throughout the day. Sillage is mid to low. Longevity is decent, about 4-5 hours. It's an okay fragrance for me. This would be good for layering. Pleasant, but I'd give it a 3.5/5. I got a sample from a JHAG Discovery Set. For now, I don't think I would purchase a full-size bottle. Note: fragrance experience is subjective as it depends on body chemistry, climate, and personal preference. I am from a tropical and maritime country with relatively high temperature, high humidity, and abundant rainfall.

Анонім★★★★★

When I first spray, and I have to "overspray", I get a beautiful, clean, light scent that I enjoy. Ten minutes later there's nothing, even if I spray my clothes. I have had better experiences from $3 body sprays from discount department stores and can't understand why this fragrance costs so much.

Анонім★★★★★

Beautiful scent. It does remind me of a lemon or lime vodka soda, but soft. It’s just a fresh, airy scent. I love it.

Анонім★★★★★

For lime lovers. Perfectly unisex, appropriate for summer, very hot days. Inoffensive, this fragrance can be holidays and office compatible.

Анонім★★★★★

Anyway, I'm moving on. Not for the bold of heart. It doesn't look like anything to me.

Анонім★★★★★

A simple clean musky citrus. It’s an office-friendly perfume, but because of its simplicity, it isn’t anything special or worth buying a full bottle. The longevity and sillage is poor.
