Green Leaves

Hermès

Jean-Claude Ellena's Brasil entry opens with something almost savory — dried pimento and paprika powdering the air before a breath of cloves cuts through.

O Boticário

The opening is saturated with dark fruit -- cassis, red berries, mandarin, grapefruit -- the kind of dense berry-citrus accord that reads youthful and assertive.

The Body Shop

Nigritella leads with bright mandarin, bergamot, and a breath of green leaves before settling into an exotic floral core.

Issey Miyake

Crushed green leaves open the composition with a damp, slightly bitter freshness — chlorophyll and stem rather than herbs.

Natura

Flores Flutuantes captures an image specific to the Amazon: the flood season when forest blooms float on still, dark river water.

Bath & Body Works

Sweater Weather opens on apple and green leaves — a sun-bright, slightly watery combination that reads as crisp rather than sweet.

Penhaligon'S

Blasted Heath opens on cold sea spray and seaweed cracked over rocks, a saltwater bracing that reads more North Sea than Mediterranean.

Azzaro

A deliberately quiet floral.

Penhaligon'S

Blasted Bloom is the female partner to Blasted Heath, and the wind has changed direction.

Jo Malone London

Rose & White Musk Absolu, the inaugural Cologne Absolu by Anne Flipo, deliberately skips a true top.

Victoria'S Secret

Body by Victoria 2014 is the floral-green re-read of the 2002 original — a deliberate echo rather than a reformulation.
