Better than Walking in Air, but still altogether too much of a strong dirt note. I can smell a little "cold" in this one, however.

This is the sort of nostalgic and personal scent that I’m a sucker for, although I really did, do, and will forever, hate winter. The winters from my childhood were much colder than they were for...

The second I smelled this I was amazed to witness the dead on duplication of melting snow encrusted on wool mittens. It's superb, and almost dangerously evocative. I'm still fairly uncertain if I...

I like CB perfumes very much, and try to sample as many as I can. I always find them interesting, though many are not what I would call wearable. Winter 1972 is no exception. I got a strong dirt...

This smells cold like L'Eau d'Hiver but L'Eau d'Hiver is more of a perfume. This is more of a scent memory just like it is supposed to be. Ld'H has a hay note. This has a mild smell of dirt but...

Winter 1972 smells . . . fine. I can't tell the difference between this fragrance and Demeter's "Snow". It just doesn't smell like winter to me -- nothing about it suggests cold. It doesn't have...

I guess I'm the odd person out here because I'm not getting that dirt note that others are. I get clean laundry. This totally makes me think of being little and coming in from the cold and all the...

(WaterPerfume) This smelled at first like muddy snow (like the trampled, dirty snow of a sidewalk or trail), then the wet woolen mittens emerged, and I swear now I can even smell a brand-new Krazy...

This is an unusual scent. The first note I get is dirt. Just plain dirt. But strangely, I like it. As it develops, however, the dirt note becomes less prominent. I can't tell you what the...

Full disclosure: I Hate Demeter. I have just never gotten the deal with that line of "fragrances." I mean, Playdough? Gin and Tonic? Jelly Bellies? Who wants to smell like that?? So, knowing that...

I was excited to try this fragrance due to the descriptions I've read of it. However, my first hit on it is that *on me* it smells tinny, flat, sharp, and unfriendly. I had just gotten done...

Even if Christopher Brosius didn't have a website describing the inspirational moments behind his various creations, you'd know that Winter 1972 is a memory specific only to him; it has that...
