In a nutshell
Description & review snapshotLively Basil is a clean, outdoorsy herbal scent that opens with realistic basil and a cool minty freshness, with bright citrus in the background. On skin it tends to stay simple and airy rather than perfumey, then warms up slightly as soft musk and dry cedar come through. It suits easy daytime wear, especially spring …
Reviews →A fresh green rose with a cool, airy lift at the top, Overose pairs peppermint and lemon with violet leaf to keep the floral heart crisp rather than powdery. Beeswax in the base adds a soft honeyed warmth, so the scent stays gentle and natural instead of turning sharp or overly cold.
