This came to me as a frimp on a purchase from another Bpalista. I'm surprised because this is basically a single floral not but I actually like it! (florals and I do not tend to play nice). on me this just clean sweet marigold. There may be a touch of soapy-ness to it but I don't mind a soapy note if it's a clean note and not anything chemical or super strong.

From the bottle: Cocoa, lots of cocoa with a bit of sandalwood. On Wet: Cocoa, Vanilla, and the sandalwood seems to turn to hazelnut on my skin. Really delicious. Drydown: Wow this changed fast. As soon as it dried on me the cocoa almost completely disappeared and this became predominantly sandalwood with a bit of myrrh, and of course this has turned a bit powdery on me, as my skin LOVES to do. I still like it but far less yummy and complex than it was on me when wet. I'll keep wearing this imp but don't see myself buying a bottle.

I had a chance to smell all the OLLA scents at Healthy Living and while there were quite a few I adored this one just really stuck with me so it was the one I chose to order (or more likely the first). From the bottle: Grassy, green and aquatic with a hint of soft florals. Wet: Honestly not that different from the bottle directly on my skin. Dried grass, mossy green notes, clean water and the softest hint of maybe linden? Drydown: Clean, so wonderfully clean. Single notes harder to pick out but all are still present. All of the notes have melded together to create a soft slightly unisex scent. My favorites all seem to have a tendency to have their individual notes meld together and this one is no different. I've warn it twice since my order arrived last week and it's already becoming a fast favorite.

Ordered and imp of this recently to try out as I've enjoyed a few other of the "Clean" Scents from Bpal- Out of the bottle: Sweet and clean, pears and plumeria come to mind. When first applied/wet: Fruity and floral but a bit soapy as others had mentioned. I couldn't place what this reminded me of at first but it was so familiar. Dry: I was finally able to place it, it reminded me of the fruity body sprays I used to use as a teen from Bath and Bodyworks! As it faded during the day the fruitiness dropped out and I started to get more of the clean linen but it still smelled a bit soapy to me. I keep going back and forth on how I feel about this one, every once and a while I get a whiff of my self and like it, but there is still something about it i'm finding off putting. To soapy? To sweet? I'll try this one at least a few more times from the imp to see if it grows on me but most likely wont order a full bottle as I much prefer Coraline Jones or There's Water Here (OLLA) when I'm looking for a clean scent.

Got this as a frimp with my first ever order! Out of the vial- Pure cinnamon, maybe a hint of honeysuckle. Wet on my skin it was all cinnamon with a bit of weird plastic undertone that thankfully faded within a minute or two. For the next hour I basically smelled like a Cinnamon Red Hot Candy until the cinnamon faded to leave mostly myrrh with just a hint of a nice dusty cinnamon note. Didn't last on me quite as long as I would have liked, maybe 6 hours before fading away completely. All in all a nice scent that I will definitely wear again but might be a good one to keep an imp of in my bag for reapplication.
