Semente de Aipo

I was worried celery seed would smell like a salad, but on my skin it turns into this dry, almost grassy green that lasts a good five hours. The drydown gets a little warm and soft, which I wasn't expecting from something this crisp. Genuinely one of the more unusual bottles I've bought this year.

I wasn't sure a celery note could work in a perfume, but this pulls it off — that crisp green opening smells like actual celery seed crushed between your fingers, not some vague vegetable smell. It dries down softer after an hour or so and stays close to the skin, which I prefer for daytime wear. Ge

The green celery seed opening is sharper and more herbal than I expected, almost like crushed fresh stalks. It settles into something softer after about twenty minutes, though I wish that crisp top note lingered a bit longer.
