This perfume is a fresh, green-white floral that evokes a clean, dewy jasmine with subtle notes of bergamot, neroli, and citrus. The scent unfolds softly, leading into a creamy, slightly sweet floral heart featuring orange blossom, tuberose, and ylang-ylang, all balanced by a base of beeswax, tolu balsam, and tonka bean. While the opening can be perceived as slightly chemical or soapy by some, the overall impression leans toward elegant, light, and wearable—particularly in summer or warm weather. The fragrance has a subtle green, airy quality that makes it feel refreshing and delicate, inspired more by imagined jasmine than a raw, natural essence. It performs best on fabric and in heat, where its floral nuances can bloom. Despite its pleasant character and moderate price point, the longevity is notably short, fading within minutes to an hour. It offers no lasting presence, making it suitable only for those who appreciate a light, fleeting floral presence.
