Mandarin Italian Fig - Perfume Smelling?

I love Wen but I am very allergic to perfume and some of the Wen scents I can't use. I read the reviews of the TSV but the descriptions of the scent are wildly different. And the presentation's description of smells like Tuscany doesn't help much either. Can anyone out there help?

It smells like bamboo green tea at the base, but it has a note of cedar also. Think green and fruity with cedar.

It does not smell perfumy, to me it smells earthy.

I am not good with discerning fragrance notes, but I could compare it to Tuscan Pair, not in a way of fragrance, but earthiness and intensity. To me it is mild scent.

At first I did not like it, but now I LOVE it! I went to wash my hair again with it this morning to check it again. I like! So I ordered also MIF mousse on AD, and another two MIF STVs on AD also.

So far, MIF is my MOST favorite CC I've tried, performance-wise, and thankfully I finally loving it's smell. Also I like that it's fluffy consistency and the fact that it washes off easily. My two cents.
