Eau de Lierre - 淡香水

The opening spritz hits green and almost bitter, like crushed leaves, but it settles into something soft and clingy on my skin. I've worn it three days straight and the staying power is genuinely impressive for an eau de toilette.

The ivy-leaf motif is such a clever nod to the name, and the bottle itself looks lovely on my dresser. It wears close to the skin but leaves a soft, green trail that I catch hours later.

The scent clings to my scarf for two full days, which is exactly what I wanted from something with ivy in the name—it feels like wearing a quiet, green memory. The mystery of the fragrance is real; I keep catching new herbal hints hours after the first spray.
