This is so much fun! I normally am not a fan of the citrus scents as they remind me of floor cleaner, but this is such a smooth sweet scent that doesn’t really resonate as citrus to me. It’s just bright and fun. I am usually in a slightly crabby mood walking around all the people at the grocery store but today was a much different experience. I was like my own walking party in the aisles! 🥳 I will admit I only tried this one because of the name, I was Manda Panda all through my school years, even high school and I’m so glad I didn’t let the description scare me away! It is nothing like orange floor cleaner, it’s so smooth and just lovely.

(not that I would ever expect floor cleaner from Mara, that’s just where my mind goes when I see citrus in the descriptions)

Yeah it's too bad that association comes up for some people - citrus in fragrance is really a wonderful thing, especially as a mood booster.  Trust that Mara always gets it right! :thumbup:

Thankfully Mara took pity on me and my whining about having missed out nabbing a bottle of the original to rebrew it, since she had all the ingredients - enough to do it one more time.

 

I do think that the citrus is stronger in the original, and that's probably because it's aged a couple years now.   But this one has that same bright enlivening freshness to it that I absolutely adore.  As before, I recommend this one because it's a perfect Summer scent, and especially for the guys because it's not sweet but it is wholly refreshing and great for work or casual situations.

This is pure bamboo on my skin, sadly. I hope citruses will come out and play as it ages!

I just tried the sample on again and dang, its pure bamboo on my skin as well, I was s hoping the citrus would come thru... I hate my skin at times like this when the true scent can't come out because my skin is wonky...

I have to say that this one started growing on me (I hope I said it right). I have MW in this and Kenzie (and UN), and sometimes I don't want to smell sweet like Kenzie and I apply this and while I still get pure bamboo, I started to like it...
