"Oscar Bamboo" is an intriguing floral/green scent which opens more sweetly than I expected---probably the waterlily. The top notes remind me of a bouquet of beautiful sweet peas. Ironically, given the name "Bamboo", it's not as sharply green as I anticipated, especially with the presence of lime, actual bamboo, & green tea. Nonetheless, I find it a very charming & calming scent, excellent for spring & summer, and it grows on me more each day. Too bad it's only available in EDT; the fragrance really fades on my skin after 90 minutes. I've layered it with Sung's Paradise EDP and find the two go very well together. The bottle is fun: the plastic lid a vivid fuchsia, but the lovely green you see in the image is the perfume's color, not that of the glass, which is clear. That is a mistake in my opinion because once the perfume is gone, so is the great color combination of fuchsia & lime. Overall, though, I find Bamboo quite lovely. |
