by Libertine Fragrance
Sweet Grass by Libertine Fragrance is a restrained, sun-warmed hay scent with a sweet, herbal, and slightly dusty character. It evokes fields of dried grass under golden hour light, with hay, rosemary, tonka bean, embers of tobacco, and ambrette weaving together in a soft, powdery harmony. The scent is unisex and leans toward a quiet, grounded elegance—more of a sensory experience than a bold perfume. On skin, it is predominantly a soft, sweet hay note that gently fades over several hours, leaving a faint, intimate drydown that some describe as resembling an unseasoned smoothie or a dry plaster scent. Longevity is moderate, with projection being light and consistent throughout the day. It performs best on fabric and in warmer weather, aligning with seasons like spring and summer. The fragrance has a vintage apothecary feel, invoking imagery of hay bales, country fields, and quiet domesticity, while also suggesting a layered authenticity that some compare to St. Clair Scents First Cut or DSH Agrestic—but with a more perfume-like polish, sometimes resembling a warm oatmeal or subtle cinnamon-additive background. It satisfies those seeking a true, philosophical 'sweetgrass' scent that captures the essence of dried, sun-kissed grass without dramatic excess.
