The Soft Lawn: Edition 2.0
by Imaginary Authors
The Soft Lawn: Edition 2.0 is a fresh, green-aromatic scent that evokes a softly lined lawn in early summer—cool, sunlit, and gently grassy. It features a bright opening of grapefruit, lime blossoms, and ivy, quickly giving way to a curiously sweet and earthy vetiver that melds with oakmoss and laurel leaves, creating a subtle but persistent greenery. The hallmark of the fragrance is a faint rubbery accord that some describe as evoking new tennis balls or astroturf, though it's not intense—more of a background suggestion than a dominant note. This gives the scent a unique, slightly synthetic freshness that many find refreshing and wearable, particularly during daytime spring and summer wear. Despite being marketed as unisex, it leans slightly masculine due to its green-woody base, though its softness and floral clarity make it accessible to anyone open to a delicate, clean green profile. The longevity is moderate but thin, with sillage that remains intimate and close to the skin during the day. While some find it underwhelming or too fleeting, many appreciate its distinctive character and surprising wearability compared to most Imaginary Authors releases.
