Airy tiare opens at the forefront, quickly subdued by the heavier florals. Jasmine and tuberose (less buttery than most) are immediately apparent, with gardenia blooming a little later into the drydown. The white florals here are less creamy than that of many other houses (but with just enough indole to be convincing), so it doesn’t clash with the citrusy tones that waft in and out of this scent. Becomes muskier and more syrupy with wear.
Jasmine and white florals, not too heady to me due to the musks
Heady and lush white florals. Jasmine tends to lean towards cat pee on my skin, but this one didn’t. It can be a touch powdery, depending on what note your skin amps.
