{"product_id":"velixir-himeros-sample","title":"Velixir Himeros Sample","description":"\u003cp\u003eHimeros, a perfume from FragranceGems' own Velixir line, is an Eau de Parfum that opens with green notes, bergamot and woody notes, moves to solar notes and ginger, and ends on sandalwood and cedarwood. FragranceGems tags it unisex and files it under citrus, fresh and woody. Green freshness over smooth wood is a clean idea that still needs a skin to prove itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFragrance notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eTop:\u003c\/b\u003e Green Notes, Bergamot, Woody Notes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eHeart:\u003c\/b\u003e Solar Notes, Ginger\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eBase:\u003c\/b\u003e Sandalwood, Cedarwood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eGreen notes, bergamot and wood\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe top combines green notes, bergamot and woody notes, so the opening is crisp, leafy and a little dry from the start. FragranceGems calls it crisp and invigorating. Spray once and see how the green and the bergamot share the front.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSolar notes and ginger\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe solar notes add a warm, golden, skin-like glow, and ginger a lively, peppery warmth. Together they bring the heart of Himeros toward warmth without losing the freshness. This is a good moment to compare what you smell with how it felt at first.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSandalwood and cedarwood\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eSandalwood gives a creamy, smooth wood, and cedarwood a drier, firmer one. The two make the base soft and sturdy at once. Check your skin late in the day to learn whether the wood stays quiet or comes forward as the day goes on.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to test it\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eHimeros is a good candidate for a spring or summer working day, on clean skin, though FragranceGems lists it for all seasons and for evening too. Try it on a warm day and on a cooler evening and note how the solar notes and the woods behave in each.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho it is for\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eFragranceGems tags Himeros as unisex and moderate, for every season, and for daily, evening and work wear. It suits someone who wants a fresh, woody perfume that is neither sweet nor heavy. If you prefer rich gourmands, this will read as dry and airy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy try Velixir Himeros as a sample first\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eGreen, solar and woody notes are the kind of blend that sounds good on paper and then varies on skin.
