Bowling Green

Which Should You Buy?
A gloriously herbal-woody tonic that bottles the Tuscan countryside. Effortless, brisk, and quietly sophisticated, this is the scent of sunlit pines and a cool Mediterranean breeze.
A divisive old-school powerhouse, Bowling Green is either a 'heavenly green' or a 'dreadfully dated' scent. It's a robust aromatic chypre in the vein of Drakkar Noir, but leans into a potent fresh citrus and green accord that splits opinions.
