Our verdict on B. Balenciaga: Favourite

This green, woody Balenciaga offering is a divisive one. You'll either adore its unique cool pea-pod freshness and sophistication or wrinkle your nose at its savoury, pickle-like oddness. It's truly a love-it-or-hate-it kind of scent.

Best For:

Also Works:
Date Formal Sport

Its clean, non-offensive sillage and fresh profile make it ideal for the office. While versatile, its unique green character might be less conventional for formal events, and its subtle nature doesn't scream 'date night' in the classic sense.

About

B. Balenciaga opens with an intriguing blend of fresh green notes, led by violet leaf and the unusual sweetness of pea, softened by lily of the valley. This crisp introduction transitions into a heart of earthy orris and clean cedar, lending a woody depth. The composition settles into a musky, subtly aquatic base, creating a cool, somewhat metallic aura that evokes a sense of modern elegance. It's a scent that manages to be both familiar and utterly unique, like freshly cut stems after a spring rain.
