I’m torn on this one. I want to love it but there’s a note in this that smells exactly like this Off bug spray I used back in the late 90’s to avoid being diner for the mosquitos. It isn’t the worst note smell wise but it’s distinct and prominent on my skin. Could it be the flowering cannabis that my skin chemistry hates? I’ve never worn anything with flowering cannabis so that may be whats causing me to stink of Off. However,this scent lingered on my sweater into the next day and smelled amazing with no hint of that bug repellant stank. So I like it, just not on me.
I went through this sample so fast, I was craving the nag champa. I’m a huge fan of patch.. but to me this blend had a cedar/ where it could lean towards BO vibe on my skin.. however on clothing or hair.. Very soothing. This is the headshop. Hippies use back door vibe.
