Ice(d) 2ml

I'd gone to the store to buy a travel size Milk Orchid and sprayed this on a whim - wow! I'd been searching for a spearmint fragrance for a while and have been eyeballing You or Someone Like You by ELDO, but this one really impressed me. I couldn't stop thinking about it and finally bought a travel size. I've seen reviewers say it's a winter scent, but to me that's absurd... I LOVE the refreshing, cooling quality now (Spring) and I'm sure I'll continue to love it in summer. The opening pairs a really lovely, realistic mango (you can almost feel the fibers in your teeth!) with that uplifting mint - it's like a fabulous mango mojito. And the great thing is that the top notes last a good long while; I can still detect them hours later. The kids (eucalyptus, black pepper, and ginger) are very well-blended and IMO serve to extend the life of the opening rather than jumping out on their own in an obvious way. The dry down for me remains fruity/minty but with the sharp edges worn down into cozy sweetness. I also have been layering it with Milk Orchid lately, and the combo smells very expensive/niche to me. I'm still getting to know Ice(d) but I have a feeling the full bottle will be in my future.
