Scents That Smell Like Wet Soil & Thunderstorms
15
items For the fragrance lovers who crave the smell of rain-soaked earth, misty forests, wet moss, and dark storm clouds. This collection is filled with atmospheric perfumes that capture the magic of petrichor — that intoxicating scent of rain hitting warm ...
The earthy petrichor in this is so strong, but there's so much freshness and watery nature to this fragrance can't help but feel it's a photorealistic rain fragrance except it's a bit fruity in the opening from melon or apple
CLEAN RESERVE Rain
Smells like a garden just after a rain. If you're a fan of green fragrances or more earthy scents, this is an easily wearable fragrance for any gender.
When the Rain Stops
Like zesting a lemon from the garden, in a cabin in the woods, during summer. A little "all natural" cleaning producty, especially in the beginning. But I agree with others that it dries down into a more cedar comforting vibe.
Moss - Commodity
It’s soooo unique. I love this scent. Very photorealistic snow and ice effect. This is what I would imagine the ice queen from Narnia to wear. I don’t get any coconut btw. Definitely one of the few perfumes that can be a year round, day and night sce...
Zoologist Snowy Owl
I immediately got grave flowers from this. Contemplative, melancholy and gothic, quickly developing into a beautiful petrichor. Brings to mind a rainy graveyard, laying next to the gravestone of a departed loved one.
Nosferatu
I got an opening poof of cherry, then a fresh bitter green, like watercress or parsley, took over. This gave way to a loamy earthiness with a little spice, then it finally dried back down to a mellow plum/cherry. A real shapeshifter with a soft outro...
Garden Witch - Sucreabeille
To me it’s true thunderstorm-in-bottle. Petrichor, ozonic, heavily soaked grass, rain-disturbed dirt. Evokes imagery of an intense summer thunderstorm, absolutely.
Thunderstorm
Smells like warm water and being wrapped in a fresh towel. Sunny, warm, slightly aquatic, fluffy. So interesting!
Molecule 05
This smells like a flower garden in a thunderstorm - florals, heavy rain, swirling wind, and wet dirt. This is VERY different from what I usually go for, but it's weirdly growing on me... dirt and all.
The Things Unsaid - Sorce
Smells like dirt! Good for layering. Reminds me of a wet forest.
Dirt Demeter
It smells like a walk in the forest right after it rained. It may be my imagination, but I do smell a little bit of smoke in this frag, it isn’t overpowering or anything but it’s definitely there.
FANGHORN II - Pineward
Smells exactly like the Home Depot garden section - damp earth, with that slight metallic note found in potting soil. I love it. It brings up memories of walking among potted plants and gardening supplies; when I wore it, I kept smelling my wrist and...
Earthworm – Demeter
The three main (Aldehydic, iris, patchouli) notes don't come off the skin very strongly, and instead they combine to form a kind of earthy smell. Smells like the earth of of a field that is growing iris and patchouli.
Patchouli Paris – GUERLAIN
Wet grass turned up by horse hooves. A polo field. Combine with Rotano for the full effect, i.e an active mid-morning polo match complete with horses running around. I've done that combo wear. I have a full bottle of Rotano, with Macanudo on my to-bu...
Macanudo
Ok this is really good. What I was wanting from a grass fragrance- bright green, freshly mowed grass but also kind of soapy and fresh. Oof. I love vetiver so much and this isn't overhwelmed by it, but a companion of differing grass to create a grass ...
