Savage Jasmine

Savage Jasmine by Sana Jardin delivers a singular, intense jasmine experience that feels both natural and uncompromising. It opens with a raw, green, slightly indolic jasmine note that some describe as animalic—comparing it to cat urine or burnt rubber—leaving a lasting impression of intensity and complexity. The fragrance is unfiltered and direct, emphasizing jasmine’s inherent boldness without artifice. While some report a faint clove and tobacco presence, the overall sensation is dominated by lush, almost overwhelming floral headiness, softened only by a light musk that resists appearing as a binding or stabilizing element. The scent lingers primarily on the skin in an intimate manner, with moderate sillage and moderate longevity, making it best suited for evening wear and close encounters rather than public spaces. Notably, the scent is divisive: some find it psychedelic, beautiful, and deeply aromatic—comparing it to real jasmine garlands at Indian weddings or fresh green tea with floral notes—while others describe it as chemical, rubbery, or unpleasantly strong. The influential notes of cloves and tobacco are rarely perceived beyond the initial moments, contributing to a fleeting spiciness that fades quickly into a singular jasmine presence. Those seeking a refined, balanced jasmine will find it incomplete, but for those drawn to raw, carnal florals exhibiting all their complexity and rough edges, this fragrance reflects a deep authenticity.
