A green aquatic
Along with Aramis New West and Guy Laroche Horizon, this is part of a sub-sub-genre in fragrance lovingly referred to as "green aquatics" that blended notes used prominently before the 80s with the perfume style of the late 80s and early 90s.
Green Jeans opens very fresh and herbal with a dollop of minty lime. Pine and fir soon try to break through, but until they do the melange temporarily comes off as an oregano accord. While the lime does stay present until the very end, the dry-down is as piney as Pino Silvestre, Aqua Di Selva, and Victor Silvestre.
The most prominent notes in Green Jeans are lime and pine, and both have been heavily industrialized, so there are a fair amount of people who will inevitably say it smells like a car freshener or floor detergent.
Projection and longevity are okay at best.
It was discontinued years ago, and it is sought after by a lot of (now) middle-aged men who used it extensively in their youth, so expect to pay at least double what makes logical sense.
Masculinity Level: Ethan Hawke in Before Sunrise.
