Greenergy
Givenchy (2000)

I love the name and the green juice inside the bottle. The perfume itself, well, is green, yes, but not that green because I can still smell flowers and some kind of sweetness that I can't put my finger on.

At times this is a bit wet and cold, which I don't really enjoy, but overall Greenergy is still a nicely-done summer fragrance. It has a 'classic' feeling to it.

I am new to this so I might be completely off but it reminds me of a light version of fahrenheit. I get a oily green (vetiver?) note so fans of fahrenheit might want to check it out. It smells ok but doesn't really stand out to me.

The dry down on this is very nice mossy smell. I don't care for the fahrenheit smell in the beginning but if you wait long enough the oiliness goes away (it was overnight for me) and it develops a very pleasant moss smell.

I've found it accidently looking into a small perfume-shop.I didn't search for it but when I saw I wanted to know Greenergy :) The saleslady had no tester just this last bottle (in box sealed).
I've decided to buy it without testing because of its rarety.
When I got in my car (hurry to work) I tried it immediately. I wasn't too impressed because it was so strong at first sniff and it didn't seem to be so special.
But when I arrived to work one of my colleague noticed : "you smell good..what is it? Adidas Sport Field?"
I was surprised but she's in right. There are some similarities.. The green grass element is prominent in both. But Greenergy is not fruity at all like Sport Field with that much ananas. After 30 minutes Greenergy calmed down and marigold and mimosa began to rule. I like it,these notes are not too frequent in masculine scents.
This scent made squarely for spring or summer.

Nice opening, very lush and moist, but I wanted a purely green scent, no fruit; for me this is a dealbreaker. I think Greenergy lies at the overlap between the bright-green brigade (Bowling Green), the fresh cucumber-melon contingent (Polo Blue?) and the sporty-apples set (Adidas Moves/Eternity). As it heads into the mid-notes, though, the freshness dissipates, leaving more and more honey-sweetness, like the fruit is getting overripe. Don't get me wrong, there's a lot of grass and leaves underneath the fruit, and this is what earns it its neutral thumb from me, but it just reminds me of the countless low-end "I guess it's tropical fruit?" scents. I've also tried using it as room spray, but it's just too assertive and focused of a scent to provide a nice background. Considering how cheap it can be, though, it's quite a bargain because it's still at least as good as many designer masculine fruit scents.

SImple. Clear. Green. Understand it MEANT to be light and fresh and it does its job well. Green top and mossy base but not extremely mossy. Just plain ol' clean green. Fond of it but not in love.

To Greenergy fans who find this stuff hard to find, as of June 16, 2007, there were 50 x 50ml bottles of this stuff available on Ebay under the seller: universityfragrances at a great price too. Cost me 32.00 Canadian including shipping, so it will be even cheaper for Americans with the currency conversion and cheaper shipping fees. I just bought me a bottle. There are other people selling it for twice that much saying it is discontinued and rare, but it says at the top of this page it is still in production. I've never tried it before, but I know I will like it, so I give it a thumbs up already.
