three-dimensional mandarin
I love this simple, cheerful scent. I would have named it "Mandarin," but I guess different aspects of it stand out to different people. It's clear and juicy and a little bit sweet without being "sticky," and I find the blackcurrant and kumquat to be strong supporting players that add significant depth. I enjoy the way it brightens up a gray, rainy spring day and cuts through the humidity. It seems better to me for this sort of weather than the heat of summer, for which I prefer to wear more lemon and tea sorts of scents. Thymes keeps their range small at all times and generally retires scents after 3-4 seasons, so they haven't offered this in several years. You can occasionally find it on US eBay, though, if you set up a search and wait for it.
