For reference I discovered this fragrance pretty early on in my fragrance journey, so my opinion has faltered over time for this scent. Greenley opens with a crisp green apple note. Noticeably synthetic but still nice, at least to me. Has a good sweetness and freshness. Then the scent goes into a brisk green and musky direction. It’s pretty good for springtime but I find it to be too sharp for summer or a lot of heat. Unfortunately the oak moss and musk combination in the dry down is extremely sharp on my skin. It smells like rubbing alcohol and lasts even after showers into the next morning. It’s a bit too much. It also isn’t exactly the highest quality especially for the house. While I don’t like even some of the most popular stuff from PdM I thought I’d give this one a chance cuz I liked it as a fresh green fragrance. The apple shampoo comparison is accurate for sure. Overall it’s just kind of mid, I still like the smell but it’s too sharp for my liking. I don’t reach for this one too much and will probably end up selling my bottle for something better in the niche realm. 6.5/10

Oak moss and cedar in a bottle, and thats not a bad thing but it getting harder to reach for it the longer i have it. Its not bad by all means, but someone on the internet said that it smells like grass, and it kinda ruined my perception about this frag. To my nose all i can smell now is just barbershopy clean oak moss and genuinely a tree from the grass smell and the cedar wood. It feels like made for more of a mature audience to wear this. I just think greenly is just alright, it has decent longevity and projection and ive been complemented with greenly. I think its just slightly too mature for me, and bc of that its gotten harder to pick up. Its a clean barbershopy smell which is similar to like MFK Gentile Fluidity or Creed Himalaya or Viking but obviously with more green, more oak moss with a slight green apple and woodyness. I love wood in my fragrances so i do appreciate it in Greenly but like i said its just a little mature for me. Obviously not bad, just not my favorite.
I love the way this smells. It's bright and clean in the opening and very uplifting. Smells like green apple shower gel in a good way. It's pretty basic and mass appealing but still has that stand out quality, that uniqueness of niche perfumery, in a subtle way! A little bit of depth from.. I don't know what, maybe the oakmoss or the amberwood, but I like what it does. The apple doesn't last forever but you feel like it's there because you associate the drydown with that fresh opening. I feel like this is a relatively safe blind-buy for guys that like clean and uplifting scents. Lasts for at least 5 hours on me, sometimes longer.
Ive had greenley for over 3 years now. For me the opening is very synthetic and gets me headaches sometimes but that part only lasts for about 20 minutes. After the first 20 minutes the super synthetic green apple falls off and the more natural smelling green apple and woods start to show up and it turns into a great scent that keeps me felling fresh throughout the day. My 2023 bottle lasts me about 5-6 hours then turns into a close skin scent on hour 7-8. I recommend it as a first niche but if youre looking for a sweet apple scent I dont think this is for you. Its more of a green and afternoon scent typa thing
It's a good entry level niche fragrance, for me I like how clean and smooth it smells, it reminds me of Head & Shoulders green apple shampoo but better and natural smelling, it's a good fragrance that gets complements from others around me telling me that I smelled like I showered in green apple scented shampoo and body wash whenever I wore this fragrance, but overall my taste in fragrances started to develop towards more unique and artistic scent profiles and the rare discontinued stuff so maybe when my bottle of Greenley runs out I might not buy it again, it's a good 8/10.
