I so wanted to love this, but apparently this does not gel well with my skin chemistry? While I see glowing reviews everywhere about a beautiful citrus / fruity / floral scent, for me this opens with a screechy almost minty note, with no florals or fruits in sight anywhere.
The dry down retains that minty scent, but it also morphs into something vey dry and chalky, with a bitter woody undertone. I think it is the aldehydes in combination with the wood? Not for me at all, alas!
