I was excited to try Clean Reserve's new Whipped Cherry fragrance because I absolutely love cherry in fragrance and I also love whip cream as a note. Unfortunately, this one is a little bit of a let down for me. It's nice, but I wanted much more Cherry and I realized that when something says whipped cream,I compute that as marshmallow. So I was expecting a fluffy marshmallow fragrance with some cherry. Not only is this whipped cream, it's the organic light whipped version. LOL Also, with so many cherry fragrances on the market, I automatically was expecting what I had previously smelled. No, this is not like any of those and I realize now that that's a good thing. This is real cherry. Like from the stem. Not soaked in a jar of syrup and not the artificial candy version that we've grown used to. So, I had to retrain my brain to appreciate the natural smell of this fragrance. With that said, I still would like more cherry lol However, for people like my mom who has a hard time with synthetic notes and gets a headache easily, this fragrance is great! I think may appreciate it much more than I can.

This is my 1st time trying Clean Reserve fragrances. I don't usually gravitate to clean scents. However, I am a huge fan of citrus. Therefore, I was very happy to receive Golden Citrus from Clean Reserve's H2EAU collection. This fragrance starts as an odd soap, similar to dishwashing liquid. I was very caught off guard. Then it becomes more of a laundry detergent, and the citrus starts to make its way to the forefront. There is a prominent mandarin orange and a juicy Bergamot /lemon bursting through. At the final dry down, the neroli steals the spotlight as this no longer is a soap or detergent, but a very pretty skin like fragrance. Fresh, clean skin. The dry down also reminds me of an Italian citrus flavored sparkling water. In my hot and humid climate, I think this is a great fragrance to feel fresh all day. I did have to reapply the rollerball after a few hours, but only because I craved more projection. I found that this fragrance performed the best on my teenaged son.
