Never tried anything from this line–guess the word “clean” makes me think the range would lean toward dryer sheet.
Bottle & cap are attractive, but the label looks like a mashup between Maison Martin Margiela and Le Labo.
I would say it leans towards dryer sheet, in general, but I have yet to try any of the newer, more expensive “Reserve” scents.
The “Reserve” scents also have a decent dose of dryer sheet in them. At least, the two that I tried did.
Thanks, that’s what I would have assumed. It is their market, after all.
They are sure churning out new fragrances for this line 🙂
I like the notes of Galbanum & Rain. The ‘Mood’ and ‘Feel’ write-ups are so cringey though..
I am down with neo-luxury girl boss.
LOL!!!!
In Houston there’s a rather seedy bar called Avant Garden, so these made me chuckle. Then I remembered Clean Reserve and I chuckled again.
