A documented-name detective story and a review of the likely intended Verde Aura.

Accords
Notes Pyramid
Scent Journey
The first thirty minutes are bright and extroverted: lemon, citron, mint, and orange create a sparkling citrus opening, while blackcurrant and coriander add a tart-green, slightly spicy edge.
After one to two hours, basil becomes more prominent, supported by apricot, carrot seed, and a faint rose nuance. The fragrance becomes greener and more herbal, with the fruitiness of the top notes receding into the background.
From four hours onward, the drydown settles into ambrette, fig, and dates. The citrus softens into a musky, creamy, slightly fruity warmth that remains close to the skin.
Performance Dashboard
6-8 hours documented; user reviews range from 4 to 12 hours depending on skin and climate.
Strong for the first 2-4 hours, then moderates to a closer wear.
Moderate to strong; leaves a noticeable but not room-filling trail.
