Green Sapphire

Final Thoughts

This is for the person who loves the *idea* of a high-end green fragrance but doesn't want to drop serious cash. Green Sapphire by Fragrance World captures the core essence – a comforting, woody, slightly sweet scent – . There is a slight synthetic edge, especially in the opening, but it's not a deal-breaker. If you appreciate a fragrance that projects understated confidence and calm – the quiet achiever in the corner office – this could be your signature.

Notes & Nuances

Green Sapphire opens with a bold, candied raspberry offset by a slightly metallic violet leaf. The saffron is dialed down compared to the Boadicea original, which gives this a fruitier, less complex start. The heart emerges quickly: pine needles and cashmeran create a cozy, slightly fuzzy forest floor vibe. The dry down is where the clone shines, mimicking the original’s creamy sandalwood and cedar base closely. This gets you about 86% of the way to Boadicea's Green Sapphire. The key difference is the lack of nuance in the opening.

Longevity & Projection

Longevity is surprisingly decent. I get about 6 hours with moderate projection for the first 2 hours, settling closer to the skin thereafter. It's not a beast, but it's far from weak. Respraying after 4 hours will refresh it.
