    The fragrance that reminds me of winter in Canada is L'Orpheline, by Serge Lutens. It's a winter walk in the forest near my home. I can smell the trees, the snow, and smoke from my neighbours' fireplace. It even smells a bit cold to me. So evocative!

    I really enjoyed Sunbleached very much, but it did not project at all on me so I couldn't smell it (unless I got my nose a few inches from it.) I wore it in my California vlog awhile back. I have thought about getting a bigger decant so I can spray more liberally, because I really do love the smell of it 😊

    We have had snow on the ground here for the past week. Dancing Light by Olfactive Studio has got mint, pine needles, white florals and sandalwood and, as it's based on the Northern Lights, it reminds me of walking past a snow covered pine forest on a cold but sunny day. It's the best snowy, wintery fresh fragrance that I have ever had my nose on, I love it ❄☃️

    Yes I have an Olfactive Studios bottle (Lumiere Blanche) and I agree, the bottle is not the best to hold.. also when I spray it, it is hard to push the atomizer at first and it clicks very hard, but then it sprays easily after that initial spray.
