Soul Of The Forest

I've tried it twice, and luckily i stopped myself from getting it on the spot. The starting note is absolutely beautiful, fresh, rich, and lasts about 10 minutes. By the end of an hour all i'm left with is a dry pine plank, which is an absolute betrayal. I highly recommend giving it a test of patience before buying it on the impulse.

A fantastic forest fragrance. The opening is incredible, and the best part of the fragrance. Green and sappy fir with rugged cedar, alongside a tinge of dark blackcurrant. As far as I am concerned, Soul of the Forest captures the smell of nature pretty well. It's not quite photo-realistic, but this smells far more natural than synthetic. Some people say this reminds them of a car air freshener - I've never used something like that so I can't make that comparison. I have however walked in the woods many times, and the likeness is there. What I like about Soul of the Forest is that it does not go the incense route, which many pine/fir fragrances have an annoying habit of doing. They end up smelling like a forest fire, or just incense with pine in their somewhere. The smokiness is not prominent here, and it dries down very woody instead - much more like an actual forest. The performance is quite poor, but this isn't a scent I would want to project all that much. The replica series of fragrances can be very hit and miss, but this is a hit for me. It's definitely my favourite forest scent I have come across thus far. I like it a lot, potentially bottle-worthy. (dislike/indifferent/like, but not BW/ like a lot, potentially BW/love, definitely BW/masterpiece)

This is one of my all time favorite, if not my favorite perfume I have smelled. It gives me extremely nostalgic vibes of being in Lake Placid and the Adirondacks. This smells like the blanket or fuzzy coat section of an LL Bean. The sap and woods mixed with the pimento gives it that sweet spicy and slightly smoky bite you get from wet leaves or like a fireplace in a log cabin with a fuzzy blanket; not smoky enough for a campfire but it's got a very nice edge to it. This perfectly encapsulates happy fall memories like jumping into a leaf pile, or walking in a small town during that transitional phase between Halloween and Christmas. I personally don't have performance issues like other people claim, I think people just need to stop spraying in areas where your nose is constantly stimulated!!

They took the air from the forests of the Pacific Northwest, turned it into a magic potion, and bottled it. That's the only explanation I can think of, because this smells like a cool, damp forest. It's gorgeous. It doesn't even smell like perfume to me. This is the truest replica scent that Replica has ever produced, in my opinion. I've only ever tested this in a store, so I don't know about the sillage or longevity. I'm dying for a bottle of this; I want to smell like I've just come in from a long walk through woods, smelling of ferns and moss and trees and the damp ground, with the mist still clinging to my hair.
