Thus sometimes, the Cretan women, tender footed, dance in measure round the fair altar, crushing the fine bloom of the grass.

Grassy scents for your consideration:

• Balmain Vent Vert
• Tommy Hilfiger T Girl
• CB I hate perfumes To See a Flower
• Nasomatto Hindu Grass
• Tauer Vetiver Dance
• Demeter Firefly
• Weil Bambou and antilope
• Gap Grass (I haven’t tried this)
• Annick Goutal Petite Cherie
• And a grass scent that ‘de-stresses’ here
• Marc Jacobs Grass
