Clean Warm Cotton by Clean

A very harsh citrus blast followed by a synthetic laundry detergent scent that smells like a washing machine. My idea of smelling clean isn’t about smelling like a walking laundry basket. If you have to choose between the two, Cool Cotton is definitely better: less synthetic and less grating.

It’s a simple fragrance, with few pretensions, as mentioned before; the combination of notes translates into a simple laundry detergent scent, and it even has that dry powder sensation you get when opening the bag. It reminded me of one sold here called Ariel or another called Persil. I gave it to my mother for Mother’s Day; I must say she didn’t like it at all. She told me it seemed like she hadn’t put on any perfume, and she’s completely right—due to its aroma type, it just seems like the wearer has freshly washed clothes and nothing else. As for the trail, it can be said to be somewhat strong yet not, because certainly it’s noticeable but very soft; if someone applies it and you enter the room where they are, you’ll get a faint scent of freshly washed laundry with detergent. It had good longevity on my mother, about 12 hours. Personally, I think it’s unisex since it only emits a laundry detergent scent, but I wouldn’t wear it; I find it too simple, as they say here, “boring,” it doesn’t seem like the wearer has any fragrance, just a very soft scent of clean laundry with detergent. I recommend trying it before buying to avoid disappointment.

It’s amazing; I went crazy the first time I tried it. At first, it’s powerful, ideal for those who love strong sillage, but in my opinion, it’s suitable for any occasion. Even though it’s intense, it smells clean and doesn’t tire out the noses of those around you.

I agree with Karyukai. I was gifted a small bottle of this reserve blend, and everything matches: the transparent rectangular bottle, the white label, and the wooden cap. It smells like a summer beach, like salt; marine notes aren’t for everyone, but they have their audience. The dominant notes are clearly marine and herbal, and indeed, when I applied it, I was reminded of the scent Dreft leaves on clothes. I think for those of us living near the sea with warm weather, it’s an interesting or attractive aroma; it evokes the beach or pool, heat, skin freshly wet from the sea—simply summer in a bottle.
