Quick answers
What is Green?
Galbanum, snapped stem and tomato leaf — the florist's knife and the garden before bloom.
EDP vs EDT — what changes?
Concentration is oil in alcohol, not a quality score. EDT (about 5–15%) shows more top; EDP (about 15–20%) shows more heart and base. Houses vary; this is not a lab assay.
How should I wear Green?
One or two sprays on skin or cloth — sternum or hair, not a cloud in a lift. Let it turn an hour before you add more.
Which season fits?
Spring daylight. Night and wool can turn green into ink.
Does skin chemistry change it?
Yes. Warm, moist skin amplifies sweet and spice; dry or cool skin can turn the same juice woody, soapy or short. Test on your skin, not only a blotter.
What about IFRA and oakmoss?
IFRA sets industry limits on some naturals and synthetics. A reformulation is usually a legal edit, not a betrayal. This atlas is not a safety sheet.
An accord is a geometry. Green is rose, jasmine, sandalwood, oud, vetiver, musk or amber stacked on purpose.
Naturals and molecules share the same pyramid; IFRA draws some of the lines.
