Side by side
Comparing the originals — price, breadth, listed-note depth.
Jasmine leads hard from the first spray — dense, almost animalic, edged with ylang ylang's creamy banana-floral weight and a bright neroli-mandarin citrus that softens the opening without lightening it. The heart is uncompromising: this is jasmine as a statement, not a suggestion. As it settles, amber and immortelle pull things warm and slightly herbal-honeyed, while leather adds a dry, skin-close rasp to the dry-down. Projection is assertive without being nuclear; sillage lingers richly for hours. — Cold-weather evenings, worn by someone who wants to be noticed before they enter the room.
Tuberose takes the lead immediately — full, creamy, and almost edible — softened just enough by orange blossom so it never tips into funeral-flower territory. The gardenia lifts the heart with a slight green coolness, keeping the white floral blend from feeling heavy. Projection is moderate: present without demanding the room. The dry-down is where it earns its price, settling into a warm sandalwood and musk base that lets the tuberose linger in a quieter, skin-close register for hours — Warm-weather evenings and bare skin, for anyone who wants white florals done with restraint rather than spectacle.
