I would say fougere for sure. It’s a broad category but to me GIT is a classic type fougere scent. Seems when I started getting interested in scents that fougeres were classified as lavender, oakmoss, coumarin somewhere in the mix. That doesn’t seem to fit with the industry anymore (or perhaps ever). To my nose GIT is very much a fougere.

That's because the grand daddy of them all, Fougere Royale by Houbigant (Casino Royale's inspiration) did contain the elements of lavender, oakmoss, and coumarin. I thought that the definition had broadened enough to fit GIT in as a fougere. I just wanted to bounce it off you frag heads.

Haha, I sure bow to you as far as scent goes. I was more reminding myself of my journey and hope I wasn’t preaching (known to). What I really should have asked is what project do you have up your sleeve?
