Description
II (Deux) by TRUDON opens with a vibrant burst of green leaves and bitter orange, immediately evoking a fresh, verdant landscape. As it settles, the scent deepens into an aromatic heart of juniper and pine, reminiscent of a cool forest floor. The drydown reveals a grounding blend of cedarwood, incense, cashmeran, and ambroxan, providing a subtly woody and musky warmth that lingers beautifully. This fragrance captures the essence of new beginnings and the serene life of a forest through its distinct green and woody character. Perfumer: Lyn Harris

Pros
Unique Green Profile: Many appreciate its vivid, crunchy verdancy and the realistic depiction of green leaves and pine, often compared to fig leaf sap.

Cons
Moderate Sillage: Some reviewers mention that the sillage can become a skin scent after the initial hour, which might be a drawback for those desiring stronger projection.
Specific Scent Profile: While unique, the strong green and bitter orange notes might not appeal to everyone, especially those who prefer sweeter or more traditional floral scents.

Forest Clearing: Creates an impression of sitting in a forest clearing, surrounded by fertile green shoots and leaves.
