Is the cedarwood in this scent bold?  Like how it is in Mandaring Fig?

@CoastalGal It is not. I hate the scent of MIF and love the Light. To me the scent is mostly blood orange and eucalyptus. I can also smell the rosemary at first but that does not really last

I am on the fence on this to - I have NEVER tried the Treatment body cream so I really want to try it and for the fragrance and body cream it's a pretty decent deal right now.

Hi!  The EDP has been out for a while now.  I tried that and did not really care for it but when I saw the NBT on Chaz's site I was intrigued and on black Friday with the 20% off deal I got it.  I LOVED IT!!!  It's so strange because I was not thrilled with the EDP but the NBT is amazing and not just the smell.  It smells to me like peaches/strawberrries and cream.  I must have a weird sense of smell.  I got the duo featured this visit because I wanted another jar of the NBT.  The results are better than the 613 and 319.  Now, those two are the most amazing "lotions" I've ever tried but this Light one is just beyond amazing.  I'm a person known as ansynesthesia—called "lexical-gustatory.  I can "taste" words.  Some see color with music and certain sounds.  I don't have that.  I was born like that.  I know this is OT but this "syndrome" can be a double edged sword because if I'm feeling a bit queazy and someone says certain words, I get the taste.  Since I can remember being alive, I would say words in my head while eating different things to enjoy it more.  Crazy man!  Life, ug.  Oh, anyway.  I love the way Light smells in the NBT.  It's not loud or chokey.

I bought this duo because of you! Your previous comments on this NBT had caught my attention and the difference in the scent you'd described intrigued me. I too was not fond of the edp. On ME it stayed rather acrid for much too long. The top notes were very after shave like and long lasting before the mid and base dried down. Then it was fine but hours to reach that with MY body chemistry. Many others did not have my same experience. We are all so different. I'm hoping my NBT results are like yours and will gift the edp. Thanks for your additional comments too.

 

I wonder if I have some of the syndrome you mentioned. Fragrance, food, smells are all encompassing for me. I see and feel what I smell. Usually a gift and a personal delight. Sometimes not so much.

Re: "Light" question

[ Edited ]

I'm not very good in describing what exactly I smell, but I can tell you - Light is by far my most favorite Wen fragrance. My first bottle is running lower than all the rest. And I even ordered it again in ODO with it and nbt.

I ended up ordering it as the OTO.  Excited to try it.
