Boringly decent aquatic
Mila Schon is a nice, hyper-fresh herbal scent smelling of pine, grass, aromatic herbs, citrus (ordinary and synthetic), pepper and juniper on a sort of azure-watery texture with soapy notes of flowers, woods and just “something” all over that creates a peculiar sense of lunar, green-turquoise abstract cleanliness. Basically it’s somehow the same feeling ozonic scents give, but less metallic and cloying, more purely “fresh” and played on green notes and light spices. The woody accord is basically sweet and discreet sandalwood with just a salty hint of vetiver. Mila Schon Uomo is much close to several conventional “young” herbal-green-woody fougères, but it has that sort of radiant “wateriness” that makes is slightly more modern and different. It’s a small difference, but it brings this closer to late ‘90s scents, making it therefore quite innovative for its era. Nothing amazing, as it soon becomes a bit boring and overall the quality of materials smells a bit cheap, yet they did a good job in bringing out the best of them. Not worth any “chase”, but give it a sniff if you get the chance to.
