    Today I’m doing a full wear test of Osmofolia Cicada kid (notes: windswept grass, dandelions pushing through cracks in asphalt, strongly brewed black tea, handfuls of thyme stuffed into raggedy pockets, and a half-eaten bag of marshmallows). I’m working my way through my purchase so I can do a full review in a few days! This one was a risky choice for me. I’m not normally one for “green” scents, but I really wanted to try this one. I’m glad I did! It’s a softer grass note, not sharp like freshly cut grass. The thyme and dandelion lend to the greenery but in a nice herbaceous way. I get the asphalt but it’s not too overbearing, it’s very interesting. As it dries down I get tea and marshmallow. It’s never too sweet, but you get that powdery softness as it wears. Overall I’m really happy with this one, it’s a really nice summer atmospheric.

      I’ve been really interested in this one, too, but for opposite reasons than yours, I think. :) I love green scents, but I’ve been wary of the “marshmallow-iness”. If it comes off as powdery instead of sweet, though, that sounds like something I might really like.
