‘How do you like the Queen?’ said the Cat in a low voice.
‘Not at all,’ said Alice: ‘she’s so extremely–‘ Just then she noticed that the Queen was close behind her, listening: so she went on, ‘–likely to win, that it’s hardly worth while finishing the game.’
The Queen smiled and passed on.
‘Who ARE you talking to?’ said the King, going up to Alice, and looking at the Cat’s head with great curiosity.
‘It’s a friend of mine–a Cheshire Cat,’ said Alice: ‘allow me to introduce it.’
‘I don’t like the look of it at all,’ said the King: ‘however, it may kiss my hand if it likes.’
‘I’d rather not,’ the Cat remarked.
‘Don’t be impertinent,’ said the King, ‘and don’t look at me like that!’ He got behind Alice as he spoke.
‘A cat may look at a king,’ said Alice. ‘I’ve read that in some book, but I don’t remember where.’
‘Well, it must be removed,’ said the King very decidedly, and he called the Queen, who was passing at the moment, ‘My dear! I wish you would have this cat removed!’
The Queen had only one way of settling all difficulties, great or small.
‘-Off with his head!’ she said, without even looking round.
‘I’ll fetch the executioner myself,’ said the King eagerly, and he hurried off.
Rosewood and black cherry with white musk, red rose, red musk and a spark of lavender.

I hope you like mint, because it’s not subtle in this blend.

In the bottle, I got a very aggressive lavender. Wet it smelled very green with lavender taking a step back with notes that were much closer to freshly mown grass. This turns a slightly soapy on me when dry, but reminds me of crushed wet herbs. I get very little lime. Very nice, pleasing scent. I think it would be hard for anyone to dislike it. A good daytime scent.

Herbal and a bit creepy. This scent is a Slytherin.
As a general rule I loathe lavender. I love this scent.

The smell of the green herbs were too powerful at first, but as the time passed by, a colorful smell developed. It doesn’t stay for long, but as the time lapses, you can witness the lime and the lavender slowly lingering. Just a reminder, it’s pretty strong.

This is like Hermione’s Amortentia. Fresh cut grass, and… Okay so it’s like 1/3 of Hermione’s Amortentia. I smell lavender, lime, and grass. Like summer! Definitely a surprise keeper for me!

This is definately for the lavander lovers out there. Very authentic, herbal lavander with a crisp zestiness from the lime and mint. This is a very relaxing scent, something you’d smell at the spa while wrapped in a fluffy, white robe.

In the imp: Sharp lavender, mint, and herbs.
Wet: Lavender, mint, and lime emerge first, but the herbs are becoming more prominent as the scent sits on my skin. The mint note in this is a bit menthol-like, and the lavender is that of the medicinal variety. The herbs, like the lime, are very green. It isn’t long before they dominate the scent.
Dry: The scent is very green now, with the herbs taking the center stage. The lavender, lime, and mint notes are still present, but they are now content with background roles.
Verdict: This scent really fits the saying that one is ‘green with envy’ really well, but even though I like lavender and mint, this just isn’t for me.

I never would have purchased this on a whim without having first smelled it. Wet, this scent is not too appealing. I smelled like toothpaste. Once dry, it is very green with a soft breath of the lavender. Very refreshing. The lime and mint are ever so subtle, and add complexity without smelling aseptic or toothpaste-y. Really like this one!
