I am always hoping to find unique scents that aren?t ?perfumey? and this one totally wins!

its a little sweet for me at first, but as it sets in its actually quite nice. smooth and fresh. smells amazing as it lingers on my clothing:)

It wasn't horrible but I they haven't sent me any perfumes I like and would wear daily. I don't understand what the rest was for in the beginning

This cologne reminds me of the smell of lemon Pledge. Not appealing at all.

I like the initial scent of this cologne, but shortly after you apply it, the first notes where off, and all you get is the peppermint. Don't get me wrong, I like the smell of mint, but walking around smelling like a starlight candy isn't something I enjoy.

I was surprised by this scent. I wasn't sure what to expect when I read the ingredients, but when it showed up it was a show stopper. It has such a strong pure Citrus smell. If you like citrus at all you will love this one. Its heavenly.

Obviously any opinion on a scent is subjective so take this for what it's worth. The immediate reaction my girlfriend and I had was this smelled like lemon cleaner. That fact never changed and while this is a pleasant scent in a bathroom or kitchen, it's not as a cologne.

this one you need to try it on. If you smell out of the spray it smells like citronella and bergamot. Once it mixes with your personal scent it makes a very complex fragrance that lingers on. My female friends feel attracted, my male friends not much... i know it's an odd comment but this day and age will be useful.

I didn't realize there was a 'bug-repellent' quality to this cologne but where I live, that's a definite bonus. I love the scent, and my wife keeps coming around, putting her face on my skin and inhaling deeply. It's a little more complex than Bergamot, but the peppermint oil doesn't seem to come forward. I get the citrus and cedar mostly.

I just did not like this scent. I reminded me of lemon pinesol. I threw it away after the first spray. Hopefully next month is better.

Very fruit (lemon) forward...my wife said it reminded her of lemon pledge. I wear it for the "housekeeping" in my life.

Shouldn?t be offered, maybe for a kid.

Not my style .. to me it smelled like the basic scent I used in gradeschool. Personal opinion.

I did not like this fragrance at all. I thought the citrus would be pleasant but not so.

This fragrance is super fresh and a little citrusy. This is perfect for the summer. It doesn't last a long time, but is a beautiful scent for the time it lasts. It smells a little bit like a citrus soda but much cleaner and less sweet.

This was just not my style.

I do NOT LIKE this cologne. Just smells like grapefruit.

I absolutely love this scent! I had forgotten what my choice for October was by the time it got to me but was pleasantly surprised the 1st time I sprayed this. It was hard to pinpoint what exactly I was smelling until I reread the description. The citrus is obvious but the peppermint oil and lavender are what make it a unique smell. I can see this be coming a daily scent for me.

Absolutely my favorite scent I've ever worn, and I've been addicted to cologne since I was a boy. Very orange and citrusy, a little bit of spice, lasting smell, very fresh and pleasant. Perfect for a summer day or date night.

This smelled like bug spray to me. I did not like it.

I felt like I was wearing a mixture of bug spray and men's cologne. The scent is interesting, just not wearable for me.

I really liked this fragrance, as did my husband and my son. On them it had a more mint/citrus smell, like a mojito. On me it was more lavender with a freshness. It seemed to work to keep the bugs off at the football field, which is by a swamp and we didn't have to smell like OFF spray!

Horrible for daily wear. Scent did not seem to do anything for bugs either.

Love the scent. It's light enough to wear everyday.

I was nervous at the bug spray pitch. They should drop that all together. The scent is complex. The mint and the cedar play on each other so well. It's fresh while also warm. It's well rounded. I truly love it. The scent is nature in its most scentual form.

I really like this. It's a very soft and citrusy scent. Perfect for daytime.

I CANT SAY ENOUGH ABOUT HOW MUCH I LOOOOOVE THIS SCENT. I hope to catch a whiff of myself- that is crazy, but I love this. I can't wait to buy MORE! Citrus galore.

Definitely a scent for a nice summer or even spring day! Light, clean, and citrusy with a hint of mint. It makes me want a mint julip or mojito.

Great Summer scent! I live in New York and this fit the bill for early on in the season...got many compliments, great way to start my subscription!

The light lemon scent is not off-putting, but it is definitely present. I have worn it outside in the warm, balmy evenings and the mosquitoes left me alone. However, I don't think I'll be buying this one.

Love this - fresh and citrus - Great!!

Smells like lemon pledge! Yuck!

This scent has a very citrus smell. Im not a huge fan. It's so strong.

I did not order this perfume but received it in lieu of Juliette had a gun which I did order. It smells like cheap air freshener.

The description sounded appealing, however I am disappointed in the actual scent. The scent is citrusy but reminds me of a mix of cleaning products and bug spray.

Got a lot of compliments & I was digging citrus scent lasted all day!!!!

Horrible scent

The worst...such a disappointment.

Love the citrus but the cedar is a bit bitter. Interesting and will add to my list of favorites.

I liked the description but I was disapointed with the actual smell. I actually got a whif of pickles when I wore this. I would never buy this

I have to agree with Grace. The almost acidic citrus scent present in most insect repellents is obvious, although not as intense. For me the scent doesn't seem to last long and almost disappears after applied. Now that my be attributed to a number of legitimate causes, but it tends to turn me off of this fragrance.

nice not for me

It smells good. Kind of smells like a fancy bug spray though.

It does smell nice, however I'm just not a fan.

I love the scent of this, but I don't find this very beneficial for a mosquito repellent. I love in North Dakota where the Mosquito's can carry you away. This didnt help that at all, but at least I smelled good.

I do like this scent because I feel like it is an unisex scent, as they had described it being. It smells good on me and l can picture a male wearing this scent and it smelling good on him as well. However this scent does not repel bugs/mosquitoes which is a huge disappointment, I tested it out on the 4th of July and got tore up by the mosquitos. So if you want a perfume/cologne that you and your boo can share then this is it, but that is as far as it goes.

it has a citrus smell that does resemble bug spray. I wasn't a huge fan but luckily it seems to dissipate quickly. So if you do like it plan on having to reapply often.

not sure how much it actually helped to repel bugs...but it certainly smells like bug repellent. Great if you want to smell like a citronella candle!

I really wanted to love this. Unfortunately, it smells almost identical to my daughter's California Baby insect repellent, which goes for about $10 at Target. I got my daughter that repellent because it was deet free and the least offensive scent wise, but it definitely doesn't smell like perfume. I once I tried it and got the bug spray smell on my skin, I haven't bothered to wear it again. I think NOMO needs to rethink the formulation of this one.

This is a great citrusy floral that received rave reviews from my friends. It's one of those clean scents that stays with you but isn't too overpowering. Imagine my surprise when I discovered that it doubled as a mosquito repellent. Best smelling mosquito repellent I have ever used.

I Love It!!!

Kinda worked repelling mosquitos. But its stinky,

I have to redo my review. After all it does smell like citronella. But on the other hand, you might be able to wear to sport events and deter bugs at the same time.

I knew this was going to be a citronella smelling perfume when I ordered it, but it was a bit much! I do enjoy it while outside due to it maybe keeping bugs away, but it was not 100%. I wouldn't purchase again but it was nice to try.

This is a little heavy on the citronella side. Its not exactly a perfume, more of a not bad smelling insect repellent. I have not had the opportunity to really put the repellent to the test yet.

Smells fresh and citrusy just like i like it. To the lady that said it smelled like citronella, mine did not smell at all like that.

While it's not typically a scent I'd wear, it goes on nice, smells fresh and actually works as intended! I live in an area where mosquitos are abundant already and while at a BBQ over Memorial Day, I noticed I maybe had one bite whereas my friends were tore up...and I typically am the one to have a ton of bites. It works and smells good, so I think I'll be getting a full bottle!

It smells like citronella. Guess it smells better than bug spray

It smells slightly like bug spray. It's alright, I personally would rather use off cause it works better. The scent doesn't last long at all. It reminds me of a Citrenella candle. I was hoping it would smell more like lavender but I didn't get that at all. I wouldn't buy this. If the scent lasted a few hours I would but that was the breaker for me.

It is ok. I knew when ordering that this wouldn't be my favorite scent, but the mosquito repelling claims intrigued me (mosquitoes love to bite me) and I thought I'd give it a try. No word yet on that. Does remind me of being in a garden.

Just wasn't for me, maybe for someone else.

It took some getting used to. Overpowering citrus scent at the beginning. The scent mellowed out after a few hours.

It is very clean and citrus and lasts a long time. My favorite of all perfumes

This fragrance is bright, sunny, and full of citrus. It's perfect for summer. It may be the best fragrance I have tried since my Scentbird Subscription began 9 months ago!

This fragrance has very strong citrus. Its nearly overwhelming.

Once I saw it was also a mosquito repellent I moved it up in my que line because I had to try it! All I can say is I love this stuff! The only problem I have as one person stated, it didn't last long but it does the trick. I work at night and the mosquitos are horrible. I put some of this on and they don't bother me. I plan on buying more of it, as it's going to be a long hot summer in Texas and this stuff works. I don't care if I smell like a citronella candle. I'm tired of smelling like OFF or worse, itching all night! Great product!

I love this scent, it's really fresh smelling. It makes me feel ready for summer. I'll definitely be getting this again.

I was very excited for this product as it stated it could also repel mosquitoes and for good reason.... it smells like a citronella candel or like a bottle of Orange-glo. Very disappointed in the scent.

It smells like citronella oil. And it lasts about as long as a dab of citronella would too. And is about as effective as citronella (ie. not at all - at least here in Minnesota). And a bottle of oil would be about $6. Cool idea, but not worth the money.

I loved the idea that this would smell nice AND act as a bug repellent. I was greatly disappointed! I smelled like a citronella candle with a good dose of OFF! Not for me.

I think this smells wonderful. It is a sharp citrus. The scent does not last long at all. This is supposed to be applied like a regular repellent in order to actually work but is far too inexpensive to use that way. Even though I like the scent, i would not purchase as a fragrance or a repellent.

I like the idea of having a fragrance work as an insect repellent but I don't like this scent :-(

Not a fan. It didn't help repel mosquitos without wearing ALOT and it smells just slightly lighter than OFF, so you might as well stick to using OFF to repel mosquitos and put on a nicer smelling perfume for every day.

I think I'll but it and wear all summer at work. I work outdoors and it does seem to help keep gnats and mosquitoes away. It's not seductive, as another reviewer wrote, but I'm not at work trying to get laid. I just want to smell like other than BO and not be driven insane by Georgia insects.

I have not received any of my perfumes that I have paid for nor have I received an email when I have complained. Your service is horrible

Smells like bug spray

This stuff stinks of rotten citrus. Worst thing is that I never ordered it!

I can't speak for its insect repellent properties, but I think it smells like pickles. Wore it a couple times, and both times...pickles!! My husband thought the same. Maybe it's just terrible for me.

I like this scent very much. It's light and has notes of citrus. And added benefit is that it will repel mosquitos. I will buy this fragrance again.

This is an interesting fragrance because of the claim that it'll repel mosquitoes. While they aren't quite out yet this time of year, I plan to test it out and see. It's unlikely that it'll work around your legs and arms unless you spray those areas, but I'll update in a review if I find that it's especially effective. As for the smell, it's pleasant- not my favorite out there, but it would be nice if you were doing lots of work outdoors and wanted a fragrance, versus a more traditional scent that fits more in an indoor environment. It smells close to citronella- that smell comes from a geranium, which this has, so that makes sense. The other scents are much less prevalent, but there is a very slight citrus aspect. Overall, it's unique in the world of colognes/perfumes, but it's not something you'd use to turn heads or seduce someone. I'd wear it occasionally, but it won't become a signature scent for me.

Love this scent! And it keeps the bugs away!?! What a great combination of benefits. I truly want to buy this to have in my calonge wardrobe at all times.
